Any SR owners have the Kershaw Outcast?

I'm just wondering how similar the Kershaw Outcase Santoprene handle is to Resiprene-C.

Completely different or could be the same material?

I've only handled the Outcast, but it seems to have much softer handles. Not quite the hardness of the resiprene. I love the blade design, Ken Onion does some of the nicest recurves out there.

Yup, it's a little harder than Kraton but a little softer than Res-C. They're nice knives, the only thing stopping me from buying one is the D-2 steel, which I don't think makes for a good big chopper.

Yep, I too fear the D2, espcially D2 from Taiwan
