Hi~
As I mentioned in another post, I am looking at getting the Mouse 2 from Blade Tech.
I was looking as their site and am wondering which handle material may be better to get, the G10 or carbon fiber.
I have not handled a knife with carbon fiber scales but have used G10 so that is why I am asking.
Does the carbon fiber have the same "grippiness" (is that a word?) as g10 seems to? In the photos, the carbon fiber looks to be more smooth in appearance. Also I am wondering as far as sturdyness, like if you drop the knife on the cement (which I've done) will the g10 or carbon be more likely to chip/break off a corner since these knives do not have bolsters.
If anyone has handled both the g10 and carbon fiber mouse, could you chime in?
Thanks!
Joe
