Questions about very small folders

[shecky]

Honestly, my most oft-used knife is prolly my Wenger Esquire -- the serrated blade cuts like a light saber, and it's always on my keychain wherever a knife can go.

Wenger makes a serrated Esquire!?!? Where can I get one?

Shecky,

I'm thinking I bought them from Campmor (maybe 3 years ago). I just checked and they no longer list the model with the serrated blade. It was a "Hot Deal" item, and I bought like a half dozen of them to give away as gifts.

I just did a casual Google search, and I'm not seeing that model anywhere. I'm wondering if I should've given all those others away...

Well, thank you all for your replies. I think I'll go with a Ladybug for now, through maybe I'll pick up one of those Fallkniven U2s. I'm rather intrigued by the Super Gold powder steel.

My current favorite small folder is the Nemesis Imp. I started a similar topic, about favorite 2" knives, and you can find pic's and responses to it here:

The Nemesis Imp is really well finished, with quality wood (or G10) scales, and anodized titanium liner locks. They are slick knives, easily carried in a watch pocket, or kept in their leather pouches in pocket.

I also very much like the CRK Mnandi for a small knife, as it goes nicely in the watch pocket.

When you pick one out, just make sure it is one of the new Ladybug 3s, instead of one of the older versions (which are nowhere near as good)... Now you just have to decide between the plain-edge or Spyder-edge, and a FRN or Stainless Steel handle.

The Stainless Steel models are slightly more expensive, and weigh more, but they have a sturdier feel to them and actually have a slimmer profile.

The FRN models are lighter and easier to open one handed, due to their texturing.
