Koenig Arius or full track

[Mo2]

Man I really dislike the look of the arius. But the quality of the knife speaks volumes of the maker. I really wish they will make better designs. Goblin also another ugly tacticool knife but great quality and flipping action. Just wish the knife community that makes these so popular were not into this style. But I guess they are popular for taking photos for ig and fidgeting with. I wonder if they weren't such great quality if people would still praise them. In any case I'm just being a hater cause I want them to make something better and more tasteful in my mind of the same quality and action and materials. Every time I see the current designs I'm kind of bitter about it. I mean it's popular and I feel why but don't see why. Trends in the knife world make me insane sometimes.

I see thing different I guess. The Arius is an edc knife for me and the tall flat grind is great for slicing. It’s a better slicer than my large Sebenza 21. The ergonomic smooth handle doesn’t scream tactical to me as something with a grippy G10. The blade profile also seems more sheeple than tactical for me. And man the Mini Goblin is tiny knife with a super delicated tip, it a surprise that you think this is a tacticool knife. It so small and fragile.

I feel the same. My Arius is my best knife for all-around use, light and hard use combined. Mine has a hollow grind and is impressively thin behind the edge, but the blade stock is pretty thick, and the handle is my most comfortable and really able to lock in my grip. It's easy to disassemble, and service if ever needed is unbeatable. I really like the appearance, but the unique design is not for everybody.
