Quick feedback appreciated! :p
I like the Rookie because it's a small, slim, light knife that vanishes into my pocket, yet has a surprising length of blade for the size. It's smaller than a Delica closed, with a longer blade. Plus, I really like the lines of that blade. The hollow grind and swedge are pretty. (I wish the Police 3 had the same blade shape and grind. The only reason I don't have a Police is the SS handle.)
Newest :spyder: in hand: Halloween Handle Hap40 Endura and Delica.
