I just bought two of the Superhawks. I think they are some of the best knives ive used. The ergos are amazing, and the blade is a perfect shape for most of my EDC tasks. Luckily i got these two on clearence from STP for 94 buckaroos.

It might just be that the Para is FFG and tapered but the Superhawk sure does look a lot thicker up at the pivot. I know it's gonna be thicker throughout the majority of the blade but the blade stock looks to be a bit thicker unless it's an illusion.

Superhawk is really awesome, Superleaf is really awesome.

If you prefer the low ride wire clip or the other wire clip, people might want to order an extra clip with the knife that doesn't have what you prefer. The Superhawk might seem very big in your pocket with a low ride clip, though. The Superleaf occupies a lot of my pocket with the low ride clip.

I bent my orange milies pocked clip today on a job, bend it right back right back into shape....love spydercos!!!!
