Been teedering lately between a few. I need to pick up a DMT and some Ceramic stones, so I can't really afford but one of these in the immediate future.
I really want a Sage 2, but I've been thinking of the Ti Millie (or even a fluted Ti if I can find one). Then I saw that the J.D. Smith is available for a very reasonable price and seems to be a very high value for the price (despite the pinned construction and the tooling marks I've read about).
I think its down to these three (unless the Chapparel or Native 5 come out... like... next month). I'm dropping hints for Father's day, so I'm trying to be wise with my choice and get something that I'll keep (I don't like to give up knives I've gotten as gifts due to sentimental value).
Really looking for a Ti Framelock since I own no Spydercos that fit that description, but the J.D. Smith seems like a very nice knife for the price of $100-$130.
I've got these already (and have sold a Caly 3, and Gayle Bradley):
FFG Delica
Sage 1
Perrin PPT
Superleaf
Manix CTS-XHP
Para 2
I'll definitely carry the Sage 2, and will most likely use the JD Smith regularly, but I'm just not sure how much I'll use the Millie due to its size (then again, I'm trying to be open minded).
Any input is appreciated.
