I got the okay to order one for Father's Day from my wife and kids. Argh! I can't decide which one! Help!
 
just to throw a wrench in your works, how about the 0560blk ??

5060 or 0561 , there's no loser and the scale is easily changed if you want to personalize it later....

Agreed. Sae knife, different color G10. Flip a coin, as they are both full of awesome, forged and ground with win, fit and finished with zomg cool! Seriously though, it's a great knife.

Uh, yeah. I guess that's what I was saying. :rolleyes: Thanks for re-wording it for me. I guess if I'm going to spend well over $200 on a knife I'd like to make sure which one I get. I'm excited about getting it and wanted to share that feeling on here where other folks might understand. Sorry I bothered you.
 
I doesn't matter which one cuz you need to swap the scale for a custom scale anyways :D you gotta really make it your own its what I did

Personally I like a little color in my life, I had to go with the 0561. If you think you may want a scale down the road from a custom maker however I cannot help you!

Thats a great fathers day present, beats the tie and mug!
 
I love my 0560, but if I hadn't of bought it I would definitely have gotten the 0560BLK. Happy Father's Day!

Agreed. I have 560 and 561 - same knife. Also have a 550 and 550blk. Have to say - appearance wise - I like the blk models.

I would go with the 0560blk.
 
You're not bothering me. Between the 2 all it comes down to is color. Which color do you like? You don't need to spend well over $200. Check with New Graham for a good price.

My next knife is going to be a 0560 / 0561. I'm leaning HEAVILY towards the 0561. I already have a bunch of black knives. Besides, it will go well with my flat dark earth Gun Hammer.:thumbup:
 
I forgot to mention I got the 0561 because I already have so many black handled knives I was changing it up a bit
 
If you are like me Im a dirt,grease magnet lol. If I take a knife to work it has to have a black scale otherwise it looks like hell at the end of the day
 
I went with the 561, a black scale with the rest of the knife stonewashed silver looked odd, kinda plain, the lighter FDE scale looks better IMO different color, but similar color value. I'm not really a fan of the 0560BLK, black blade, black G10, same stonewashed silver lock scale that looks out of place, should have been all black ALA 0300, although the upcoming washed DLC version does look kinda cool.
 
I've only had the 561, I got it because I have other black knives and wanted some variation. I found the tan kind of plasticy looking, almost cheap, if I were to get another one I'd get the 0560... ...or better yet the 0560 black. I'm a little turned off by Kershaw at the moment so I would look at some other knives first but of the two I'd take the 0560.
