Have to chime in with my own pic :) There's something about this thick slab of vg-10 that invites play ;)

The Tenacious kind of "almost" filled in the void when the Superleaf was discontinued. A shame, VG10 with G10, great recipe in that Superleaf.
I have a Tenacious and a Resilience, they are very nice but not as good as a Superleaf for the obvious.

After spending the day playing with this jumbo leaf I-am-impressed even more! I took just a moment to tweak the tension on the screws, put a drop or two of Slip 2000 on the pivot and this dude is already a butter smooth flipper. Showed it to a couple of friends over a beer and they were just blown away by the total package, especially given the price point. The compression lock offers so much versatility. What a pleasure....

Got mine a week ago and haven't put it down since. This really is a great knife.

Very nice design when the blade is opened, fits in a variety of grips and the hooked handle really grabs my hand. I really like the deep carry clip (and the way the handle hooks over my pocket!), the compression lock, and the open construction.

Dissapointed to see this discontinued, but I guess the Para2 is very similar for features and cost, with a more streamlined design. Any chance at a PM2 with a leaf shaped blade?
