So I'm really digging the newest offering from Cold Steel. Modern/Traditional is the only way I can define a knife like this. I would be open to buying more like this.

This design has Really piqued my interest. How does their HT seem to be on it? Does it have liners or just CF slabs?
 
It's nice, saw one at Blade, Andrew showed one to me and we talked about it for awhile. :)
 
This is high on my list. Although, I suspect I'll end up ditching the clip and just carry it loose in my pocket.
 
I have on full traditional, but it just doesn't grab me. Aside from the Lucky, the Boker Plus Howser Memory and the Benchmade Summit Lake have been somewhat intriguing to me, since they are kind of modern/traditional. Not enough to warrant a purchase yet though...
 
I dig the design. It's the only cold steel that's ever really been on my radar. If I see one at a good price on the exchange I'll definitely snag one.
 
I am planning on a Lucky and a Finn Wolff this year when they become more readily available. I am very jealous. I have only seen them offered as pre orders. I am hoping the price on the Lucky comes down a little as they become more available. I really like it so far, but have not handled one and am not willing to pay what I am seeing them pre order for thus far.

I have a temporary job duty change for a few weeks recently and have given up the uniform for dress clothes. That was all it took to get me interested in gentleman's or dress knives. I personally won't wear a belt sheath or a knife with a clip visible in dress clothes. So far I have been carrying either an Alox Bantam or a Alox Secretary. Both are nothing more than pen knives and have very limited real function. The Lucky atleast thus far looks to have a little oomph to it than the tiny Victorinox pen blades, while still having a very sleek dressy look.
 
Agree with JK. I used to like the Kobun from CS before I went off the americanized tanto shape. This is the first CS that has me nervously fingering my credit card.
