Just rec. it in the mail. Another Kershaw I really like. This and the Lahar I think are the two best folders they have done to date. No outrageous blade shapes, handle designs etc. etc. Just straight forward handles to hold on to and good basic blade shapes. Not only that but the NRG was dirt cheap. keepem sharp
 
I've bought three of the old style with the gray G-10 from some dude on the bay selling them dirt cheap. It has become on of my favorites and is a very good slicer.

I've been a huge fan of Kershaw for years and own many models and the NRG II never really made a bleep on my radar. Just recently I bought one on Ebay on a whim and I have to say that I am extremely impressed. The blade shape reminds me very much of a Bob Terzuola blade and I love the fact that it is satin. The handle is comfortable and the grip inserts don't bother me much. The G-10 is grippy, but not too grippy. My only gripe is the clip as I'm just not liking it all that much, but we're talking about a small gripe. The psionic flipper is awesome and works like a charm. Overall, I say you get alot of knife for a little money and it's well worth it.
 
The large ENER-G has always been one of my favorites. Perfect size, great slicer, and lightning fast to open. And I prefer satin finished hollow grinds, too.

Like the Blur, Kershaw changed the Trac Tec a while back and went to a softer insert. The first ones were a little rough, but smoothed out nicely with use. The G-10 ones feel great in my hand.
 
Double tap.

This site has been really screwy recently. I only got timed out twice trying to post this.

Take a look at the new models, all black G-10 handles no grip tape inserts. Now if Kershaw would just change the clip to one like the RAM or Zing and mount it a little higher in the tip up position it would be damn near perfect! :p:D
 
I just ordered my Enrg II for only $23.99 at knivesrus. Their distributor is closing them out.:thumbup:
