My wife is like, “All knives are the same, why do you collect them?”I'm not sure what possessed me to buy this little knife. I was looking for something small and affordable that I could clip to my pocket when a Malibu-size one-hander would be more than I needed.
I saw this "Little Main Street", a Dirk Pinkerton design, from Kansept and figured I'd give it a try. It's a pretty little thing with an S35VN blade, copper carbon fiber slabs, and a crossbar lock. It's SMALL at 3.17" closed and a 2.25" blade. The mechanics and FF are nice. It opens with a solid thunk, drops, and closes easily, although I'll need to get used to the crossbar lock. I was able to add a knotted leather fob, which helps retrieve it and also adds a little extra length when opening it.
The only problem is my wife likes it! I may have to buy another!
