UK PK Love? future releases?

#1

Post by bigboned »

Hi All, apologies if this is repeated i did do a search but didnt find what i was looking for.

Im wanting a UKPK leaf shape but not bd1n or s110v( have both so looking for different), i understand there were a few earlier versions BUT is there any talk of newer steel varieties?
i missed the hennie haynes s30v version and now they are gone and ive only just got into slippies - loving the k390 urban
i see seki models are going to have k390, is there going to be a 'new production standard for golden models?

basically is there any more ukpk's in the planning that i should wait for that are hotly anticipated?

thanks all for your time

HH say their s30v version is on back order, so will be available again at some point.

Also, Sal has told us a LC200n UKPK is planned.

+1 to this. I was carrying mine yesterday and it is a great slicer.

Since I finally broke down and bought one, I’m a fan. I’m ready for some new steels and new colors.

With all of these Rex45 Sprints coming out I wish they had given us a UKPK.

Not sure if our polls hold any merit, but looked like the UKPK had the most votes for a forum knife...Rex45 version would be cool.

Yes but Forest Green. :-)
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Yeah I'm kind of burnt out on burnt orange. Love HAP40 & REX45 but would sure like a different color for the handles

Yes please. Sal, Eric, HH? Help! Haha. I love seeing all this ukpk love.

The new HH version is the ultimate version of the ukpk ever made in my opinion. Thin grind, strong lock up, g10 instead of FRN...
Most recently acquired: Military 2, Paramilitary 2 Tanto x2, YoJUMBO, Swayback, Siren, DLC Yojimbo 2, Native Chief, Shaman S90V, Para 3 LW, Ikuchi, UKPK, Smock, SUBVERT, Amalgam, Para 3 CTS-XHP, Kapara, Paramilitary 2 M390
Grail Paramilitary 2 M390 X 2! ACHIEVED!!

I love my leafy UKPKs. I was smart enough to buy two from HH and I must say that Golden did a great job on those. Looking forward to the LC200N one. I only wish they grind them thinner behind the edge though. This aside I must admit that UKPK has superb ergos and carries like a dream. I love the Urban slightly more just because is way thinner behind the edge and more compact but it's less ergonomic in hand.

K390 w/ Burgundy Linen Micarta
52100 w/ Peel-Ply Carbon Fiber
Cruwear w/ any color Micarta
Rex 45 w/ any color G10 except Burnt Orange
LC200N w/ Yellow/Lime Green G10, even FRN will do
S90V w/ Smooth Carbon Fiber

Any of these would be instant buys for me, heck, I would buy them all!! I would even pre-pay for them, just take my money Spyderco!

Hope that more than the drop point salt version are already in-the-works. Excited about that one too though.
