Comparison of the Southard and the Sage 2

[Mannlicher]

both are Chris Reeve inspired liner lock knives. I have a Southard and love it. How does the Sage 2 compare?

The Ti R.I.L. is about the only similarity as far as I am concerned. The Sage can feel a bit wide (like many Spyderco's due to the opening hole), the Southard is narrow feeling. The Sage has a full size handle, but is limited to a 3" blade. The Southard packs as much blade in that handle as possible. Flipper vs. non-flipper. Way better clip on the Sage.

Looking more for a reason to buy, I guess. I love the Southard, and I'm sure I would enjoy the Sage as well.

It is a good one to own. I enjoy mine. The wire clip and smooth Ti makes it a nice knife to carry, and it is a good all around knife.
