Got a ZDP Chinese Lum

[silenthunterstudios]

Got a ZDP Lum in a trade on Saturday at a local knife store. Great little knife, the handle is a bit too little for my big hands, but I put a square knot lanyard on it, that made it easier to get a good grip. I got the one with the black handle, satin ZDP189 blade. The store owner said that Spyderco is coming out with a ZDP189 satin blade and a GREEN handle.

Are there any plans to make one with a larger handle? The blade length is fine, I actually really like the blade shape. Looking at the Lum online, I thought I wouldn't like the curve of the knife, but it feels very good in the hand. I carried it on the way home (LOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNGG drive home), used it for a couple small tasks, and carried it with a few other knives in my pockets. No scratches, didn't even feel it there because of its slim design.

Congrats on a great acquisition. This is one of my all time favorites. Size of the handle does not bother me since I am not planning to use it for a heavy tasks. As long as I can keep it securely in my hands I am not worried.
As for the green handle one, it is out and with VG-10 steel. As far as I am aware there will be none with the ZDP-189 and different color.
