Thanks, Vassili.

I like that U2, but why not even put a thumb stud on it? It seems "retro".

Nemo · Jun 22, 2004

The line and the curves... it's an Art Deco knife !

That U2 is a sweet looking design. Too bad they couldn't get the tang covered up when closed. Other than that it looks like a very comfortable and versatile design.

Key features of this knife - triple laminated blade. It was only Hiro LB with laminated blade before, but it was VG10+VG10+VG10. Here it is 420HC+SGPS+420HC with 64 HRC core.

Thanks, Vassili.

Nemo · Jun 23, 2004

62 HRC core !

No chip on my edge for the moment despite hard used on plastic, hard wood etc...

nozh2002 · Jun 23, 2004

Sorry 62 - 64 was printed by mistake on the box.
Thanks, Vassili.

The Spydie Native II in S30V fits the bill as an all round work EDC. Smooth and solid.

Vassili,
If you ever get to Michigan, we'll have to share a steak and a bottle of vodka. I'll provide the steak, you can bring the caviar.

I did not drink vodka with Beluga Caviar for a long time... But with Tesco pickles- regularly!!!

Here's the production knives I've culled down to and wouldn't trade for anything. In no particular order they are:

Benchmade Mini Griptilian
Spyderco Calypso Jr.
Spyderco Delica
Spyderco Mouse(if you can find one or a Bladetech Mouse II)
Spyderco Native s30v
Benchmade 940 (sure it's a bit longer at 3.4", but very non threatening and beautiful knife nonetheless)
Victorinox Camper
