the best slipit?

[tahomazz]

ive really taken a liking in the slipit line that spyderco offers. any opinions or usage i should know on differnt models? which should i get first

[The Mentaculous]

I really like the old original UKPK with a FFG S30V blade best (I have it in G-10, it's still available in CF and Ti). It has the nicest blade lock, beautiful build quality, and is my favorite design, being based on the Calypso Jr. I really like my Urban as well. The LW UKPK's are good if you're on a budget, although I might wait until the stiffer springed ones come out.

The Urban! For a small knife, it is very useable. It's high quality and feels solid in hand, with it's textured G10 and VG10 blade, as well. Blade has a nice point for splinter picking. :)
I find I don't trust myself with a knife any bigger than this, unless it has a lock. :eek:

i wish they never discontinued the old g-10 ones....it was more appealing then the carbon fiber,i dont like the texture

[tahomazz]

urban in leaf or warncliffe? what about the terzoula?

[pmbspyder]

urban warnie with black g10 wins my vote (RIT dye needed obviously)

[tahomazz]

sorry but may i ask why warnie over leaf

[pmbspyder]

personal preference for me. I find that for my edc (others may differ) a small warnie works perfect. That doesn't stop me from carrying lots of other types of blades, but if you gave me a pick of any of the spyderco slipits, it would be the warnie...

I vote Terzuola. But I do also love my Urban and my ukpk.

[gbelleh]

I definitely like the orange Urban best. It's a very handy size, and the lock up is extremely solid. The G-10 UKPK would be next, IMO. I'd like the Terzuola a lot more if it didn't have the little lanyard attachment on the back.

[tahomazz]

i agree and the lanyard seems to be a job to take off

Just get out a dremel and sand it down....wearing some protection of course.

If you want to cut stuff, the G10 UKPK is still the best Slipit. My preference is the drop point version for really accurate and precise cutting.

Saying that, the Ti UKPK is pretty close in performance and looks gorgeous.

[TCRooster]

Another vote for the Urban Wharncliffe. I keep mine stock Orange.

Although, if that Native Slipit ever came to light (in Orange!)...

[ousanas]

OG g10/s30v ukpk or bob t are my favs.

[eloreno]

My personal favorite is the FG G10 drop point UKPK. Great knife.

[Dr. Bahn]

The Urban is my main EDC knife since it was available in Germany the first time. Very nice little Slipit!!

[dj moonbat]

The thing about the wharncliffe is that it's IDEAL for the vast bulk of EDC tasks (like cutting open boxes, envelopes, etc.), yet far inferior to the leaf in a small percentage of EDC tasks (e.g., the wharnie no es bueno for food prep). On net, I think the orange Urban is a great way to go.

I'm a fan of the byrd Wings Slipit. PE and SE blades, nice compact size, looks good, fits the hand better than the Dyad Junior... The PE blade could stand to be pointier, but that's my only real criticism.

[Mwalle6]

UKPK is great and the only one i presently own, but I think the Terzoula is my favorite.
