K390 Urban. Incredible steel. One of the sharpest knives out of the box that I have ever bought. I can't wait for the new Police with a big chunk of this steel!

I've only got a couple new knives from the 2017 catalog, for now I'll agree with SG, the UKPK in S110V is my favorite because it's S110V duh, and it is so similar to the caly 3, and it's light as a feather.

Lil' Temp 3 so far, but really digging the M2 back lock and KW's Ti/CF S90V millie also. 2017 is shaping up to be an epic year for sure.

edit: almost forgot the why part, the LT3 is just such a stout piece, nice thick blade and that compression lock.

Delica wharncliffe. Two great things combined and I find myself carrying it the most out of any of my knives lately.

Manix 2 Backlock. Simple, solid, and it has the amazing new back lock. Sort of a magnum N5 LW.

The K390 Urban, S110V UKPK, and Maxamet Native are all awesome, but for me they're all battling for second behind my lefty PM2.

One of those things where I knew I was excited about it, but I'd been using the regular ones for so long I didn't realize how much I was going to love it until I got it. Just an amazing gift to us Southpaws.

I have only had my Raffir Noble Chap for a day, but it is so well done. A lot of firsts for me- first Taichung, first XHP, first Chap. I am business casual M-F and while I prefer rough and tumble models, I finally have caved that I get more use out of the smaller models. This should kick the HAP 40 Dfly out of pocket on some days

My Lil'Temp 3 of course.

That said I'm surprised how well I like my Manix 2 LW in CTS-XHP.

Manix 2 back lock #1. #2 is the K390 ULW. These are two great knives, but the M2BL is especially nice. I am so pleased with this purchase I have thought of selling some knives and buying another one or two.

The knifes made in Italy seem to be sharper than those from any other factory. My Pingo TI and Squeak TI were sharp as ****.

Manix 2 Back lock, I also will be buying a few more of these. For the quality, feel in my hand, weight, and most importantly, "back lock".
