[Gaspumps]

I love my original. Now they make it better???
Has anyone had a chance to compare this one to the original?

It hasn't been released yet but we've certainly been talking about it.

Actually there's three. Two were going at the same time for a while.

I suppose us'n Spydie fans may be excited? I dunno...

I preordered 2 from knifeworks. Great price

Yup, its crazy cheap! Actually cheaper than the original which is already arguably the best value in the entire Spyderco lineup.

Different. Not better.

I like to think that its improved everything i disliked on the GB 1. Only thing i wish they would have kept is the handle thickness, which hopefully isn't alot thinner

I wish everyone would add the bolded part of your statement when discussing the GB2. :thumbup:

I agree, they are both fantastic. Just because you dislike something on 1 doesn't mean 2 is over all better.

 

[Surfingringo]

I have not yet handled the 2 but I can tell you that the subtle finger choil was one of my favorite aspects of the 1. Not saying I don't, or won't, like the 2...but I think they are different enough that the first iteration will always have its fans.

Anxious to get my hands on the new model though. I have a feeling it will carry better which was one of my few (minor) complaints about the first GB.

Got to space things out so we keep buying. Wait till they surprise us with the GB2 Flipper.

Does the GB2 resemble the GB flipper gringo has, that is one sweet looking knife? IF the GB2 does resemble gringos I will have to pick one of those up to.

The GB2 looks different but it it still distinctively "Gayle Bradley" style. It is a gorgeous knife in it's own right IMO. There are some pics floating around here somewhere.
