Great picThanks! We have pretty similar tastes, and their two recent reissues both speak to me. Glad it meets expectations!
For me, today is a celebration of hollow grinds.I carried the Yo2 for a morning errand, and the new-to-me VDK Wasp will be riding along for the rest of the day.
I often like knives that are a little bit off the beaten path, and IMO the Wasp qualifies. WE-made, so it's perfect; super thin hollow grind; 0.2 oz. heavier than a PM2, and thinner in both handle and blade stock. Summer and shorts mean my 4 oz. knives get a workout while the heavier ones stay in the drawer, and the Wasp is perfect for shorts -- it just vanishes in the pocket.
