For those that have carried both the Caly 3.5 and the PM2, how do they compare? Which do you prefer, and why?

The Caly3.5 is a great EDC and packs a lot of blade in a small package. That small package however results in a grip that is not very hand filling and falls short for harder use. The Para2 packs a similar length blade in a much larger package that is much more hand filling and is well suited to harder use. To me they fall at the extreme ends of the spectrum in that regard with the Caly having about as small of a handle as you will find on that size blade and the Para2 handle being a bit large for that size blade.
I prefer the thinner blade stock of the Caly3.5 but I prefer the blade shape and larger handle of the Para2.
