Here are my experiences using only the GB2 for everything for a month.
The knife was new, only lightly used on paper and cardboard once, and stropped on leather with diamond sprays. As a first step I put my own edge on it using DMT plates. As a result, this small peak appeared:
I was alarmed at first, but then it did good service a few times by digging into my skin and stopping my index finger from sliding onto the blade when I was habitually trying to use the GB2 as a finger choil knife.
Because of its HHG, I knew it would perform admirably in the kitchen. Making mushroom risotto:
It diced the onions really fine.
It made apple sauce multiple times.
Okay then, lets make some hard apple cider! It really helped with the patina.
Lets harvest some salad greens! And grapes! Not a challenge.
Opening duck feed and a parcel:
It sharpened everything.
Debarking was a breeze.
The ideal drinking companion: a teetotaler, who keeps quiet.
In the beginning I was stropping every night, but I stopped out of curiosity and only used the Spyderco UF stone after two weeks. Then I didn't touch the edge for another two weeks, only oiling it now and then.
Also, in the beginning there was an invisible chip on the edge, but it smoothed out over time.
One hand operation was not a problem, even in thin gloves. Only in thick, lined gloves was unlocking impossible.
The pocket clip does the job, at first I thought it's too strong, but then I got used to it. I really depends what you are wearing.
Both the clip and the carbon fiber scales retained their original looks nicely, no marks or scuffings.
I disassembled the folder once to clean it out without any issues.
The patina developed nicely as well:
I don't think the lockup changed at all, but I forgot to document it. Also, the lock stick was pretty strong initially, and it decreased to a very acceptable level. Usage made it handier.
Indeed, for a month the Bradley Folder 2 did all cutting tasks, in the kitchen I put away all the other knives, in the garden I stopped using the shears and it was cutting inch thick saplings and weeds with ease day after day.
It's a good folder, I got used to it, and now, since I started using a PM2, I miss it. I mean it's sitting right next to me, but I will never sell it.
