Hey guys!!
Recently picked up a LNIB 586. Not really into smaller blades, but since I have a 581, and love it, thought I'd give the little guy a shot.
Arrived yesterday and I haven't stopped playing with it since! This little guy feels great in hand, has incredible action, M390 steel and is a sexy looking little bitch!!
BM did a fantastic build on this one. Blade flies open and locks up tight with no movement at all. Excellent blade profile and thin behind the edge.....slicing monster!! The edge is stupid sharp and very even. It's not a featherweight, but the weight makes it feel substantial in hand. Excellent cutter!
Just goes to show, sometimes you just have to get a knife in hand to see if it 'fits' you!
If you get a chance.....check this one out! It changed my mind on smaller blades!

Never held a 586, but I EDC a 585 most of the time. It's my "go to" blade for almost everything, and it would be the last to go if I ever had to divest myself of my collection.

I used to EDC a 556, but the handle is just not "substantial" enough for a proper grip for me. The 585 gives me the extra handle I need with about the same size blade (which is perfect for office EDC).

I may have to try out a 586 as it is a good looking blade. I think the grind on the 586 is more attractive than the 585.
 
You won't be sorry MF!! It fits my hand perfectly! I wear large gloves. The M390 holds a great edge for a long time and it touches up nicely!
Action is amazing!
