I haven't had it long, but I love everything about my K390 PM2. Just purchased a second one to have as a backup in case anything ever happens to my current one.

This has been the year of the small knife, for me. Of that category, none have stuck with me like the Micro Dyad.
It is always there, with my choice of edge and gorgeous bolstered jigged bone to boot. So much ability in such a small, beautiful package.
Overall, it has earned it's place amongst the top contenders of my list. Sitting alongside behemoths, like my Caribbean.
Also, it would be wrong not to give an honorable mention to my Yellowhorse Kiwi. It wins in the looks department and has a much more comfortable grip. But, the MD's utility is too much for those to overcome, in this size range.

All are nice, but I really like the Caribbean.

Just stopping in because I’ve had my watu for around 10 months now and still feel it’s nearly unbeatable.
I’m starting to get concerned, I know I’ll have to go custom to get a knife as well suited for me again. The Native comes close but isn’t nearly as spot on. In the meantime I will buy literally every variant of this knife that shows up, and if it gets discontinued I’ll be stockpiling :rolleyes:.

An infrequent user, but what a knife! I removed the clip and carry it on my belt in a spare flashlight holster.

The Bentobox Para 3 in Satin M390. I nearly sold off all my knives when I got it. It's everything I wanted! The only thing I think that could surpass it is maybe a Vanax Para 3 with Titanium scales.

I know I’m way late to the party, just bought both a Ranger Green 204P and a Red M390 DLT PM2, the Red M390 just blows me away everyday, that knife is perfect!

Hawkbill Dragonfly --> USEFUL
Just a super useful, relatively inexpensive, carry just about anywhere, impervious to rust knife. If you don't already, this knife will make you love hawkbills.
Shaman, just solid.
Police 4 K390, the pinnacle of high performance matter separation.

The humble Endura!
Especially the K390 variant.
Just finished breaking down a mountain of cardboard (approximately 500ft of cutting) and would still cleanly slice printer paper.
Such an effective cutting tool!

Police 4 and Endura, both in K390.
Theyre both slicing machines, but put a highly wear resistant steel like K390 on them and it takes them to the next level because you dont have to touch them up nearly as often. Im also liking K390 better than ZDP, as it seems to be less picky about what abrasives it responds well to (and the edge is less micro-chippy).

I can not keep my PM2 in 52100 out of my pocket! It always comes back. I find myself reaching for it time and again. Idk, it just works. Great steel, fidget factor, and fun to sharpen!
