i'm either going to by myself a orange ukpk or a g-10 ffg endura. i'm just torn between the 2. i've wanted both since i've seen them, so i can't decide. if you have either, or both, voice the pros/cons you have for them.

thank you,
nick
 
Obligatory get both comment..:rolleyes:

I'm partial to colorful knives to break the monotony of black and gray so UKPK for me.
 
I think I would like the UKPK more now, but at the same time the E4 FFG is being discontinued...so either both or E4 first imo.
 
UKPK is smaller and lighter. It also has a wire clip, which some folks prefer. Orange should also be more difficult to misplace than foliage green. On the down side, it offers less carry options than the Endura and has no lock.

As has been noted, the G-10 Endura has been discontinued, so this might be the best time to get one if you want one.

I would recommend the UKPK (if you don't already have the Caly 3). The design is fantastic and I find it to be my favorite EDC. CPM S30V is a great steel, IMO a little better than VG10. The UKPK's light weight and deep carry clip are great features as well.

If the most important thing about the G10 Endura is the FFG, then you should know that in 2010 there will be a FFG run of both the Endura and Delica in FRN. There will be five colors available as well.
 
UKPK is an awesome knife, esp in orange, but Id go with the Endura. IMO, there are NO cons to that Endura. I have carried and used a bunch of Enduras but the G10 one WAS (lost it :() the one. It carries, fits my hand perfect, looks pretty, and opens/functions like a dream come true, shes a slicer!. I hope to get my 2nd one for xmas this year, only not lose it this time. Eitherway, its a win win when choosing between 2 Spydies :thumbup:
