G10 or Carbon Fiber?

[Steven Cobb]

I am interested in knowing the positive's and negative's of Carbon fiber and G10. Which material is more durable?

Thanks, Steven

I would say that G10 is probably more durable. Carbon Fiber is a woven laminate, and can sometimes start to split apart.

I think that CF looks a lot cooler than G10, but I would worry less about beating up a G10 handled knife.
