Got my Gray M6

[lagarto]

I just got my gray M6 in the mail today, thanks to Eric Isaacson for his excellent shipping speed. The first thing I noticed is that the gray coating seems to be much smoother than the standard black finish on my other rats. I don't know why this is, but I really like it. Here's a few pics, sorry for the flash I really need a better camera or a light box. I also have to say that it's a lot heftier than I expected. I can see now why so many people love these as outdoor knives. In comparison with my Mini-Mojo I think the M6 spine is a touch thicker and feels just about as hefty, even though the blade is significantly smaller.

Okay, I got the pics figured out.

I'm glad that it arrived safely and that you like it.

Thanks for the pics.

I thought the spine was thicker than the Mini Mojo too. It isn't. It's still .25". The slabs are thicker. They look like "magnum" handles in BC parlance.

Hold your Mini Mojo handle and your M6 handle vertically, side by side, blades facing away from you. Tell me what you see.

Kraz,
Right you are, I just checked. Interesting.

The thick slabs are really nice on the new M6s. I wonder if the original M6s had similar handles.
