So I know that the winkler II line is loved.

I just noticed that BladeGallery has the new Winkler flipper on preorder.

Does anyone have one yet?
How does it feel?

Those are new blades they're taking to Atlanta for Blade. Chances of somone here having one early that they didn't tell everyone about yet is probably low.

For anyone who wants to see pics they're in winklerknives IG feed.

I wouldn't call them traditional though.
 
I like Winkler's designs. My Winkler II belt knife is one of my favorites. The pocket clip on the new F3 makes it a no go in the traditional forum though. Moving this to General.
 
I like the look of it and being he went bigger to 3.5" is awesome for me. 2 issues I had with he first folder was the handle size and the super light detent. This will be a must buy for me if the detent is a little more firm than the non existent one from the first folder.
 
I played with this knife for a few minutes at Blade. It flipped well due to the bearings, but the detent was definitely weak in my opinion.

That was what I didn't like about the first one. I'll be holding off
 
The clip is ugly at best to be honest. His WK2 fixed are great but the folder seems to be not very well executed.
 
I do not care for the clip either, as it is NOT remotely pleasing to my eye.
 
Anyone else get a hold of one of these yet? Got any feedback or comparisons? Been thinking about ordering one.
