Carried the UKPK Cobalt G-10 Spy 27 today at work = a grail for me .
Seems like these days one of my Tenacious M4 blade knives is ALWAYS within arms reach (the one shown here was on the work bench today ) .
On the couch now I have the Drunken with his side kick Pochi . ( Never thought I'd have a Drunken ( pretty fancy )).
GLAD I have one.

Retract - 9cr18mov
Lil Temperance 3 SE - VG-10
I am blown away by the Retract. The fit and finish is on par with anything out of Golden or Seki. It is amazing quality. Great materials, perfect grinds. @sal , you and Mr Schempp knocked it out of the park with this one. And your Chinese maker as well. I would consider it a bargain at $140. But at $72? Unbelievable. Amazing value here.
And of course the Lil Temperance 3 in SE is a beast. Nothing more to say about that

New Spy27 Police4 for me, just came in this morning early. Had to drill it for a lanyard, that just rubs me the wrong way that these knives are no longer drilled lol.
The bevels on the knife was not at all even and on one side out towards the tip of the blade there was almost no bevel.
Also found all screws in the knife really loose. But I bent the clip like I do with all my knives, honed the bevels pretty darn even on both sides to 15 dps and out to a polished finish put a lanyard in it and it's now one full sized pocket knife that is in my pocket.

I don't have a micrometer to measure. But it appears to be fairly thin bte. It's definitely more of a slicer than a chopperelena86 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 12, 2026 2:17 pmHow is the edge( ground…thickness bte) ?8th_Note wrote: ↑Thu Feb 12, 2026 11:21 amRetract - 9cr18mov
