We are coming out with a closely related EDC 2 pretty soon. We're cutting chips now. There will be hundreds of them. *shrug*

Wow! that's great news Nate!

 

[adamlau]

Awesome! In 4V as well, please

How will they differ?

How will they differ?

Same cutting geometry, hair thicker (.135-->.145, same grind geometry= higher grind), hair longer blade, tweaked blade shape (a little more like the old Field Knife), same handle but slimed down a tiny tad. Weight and footprint almost exactly the same due to magic, balance forward a fraction.

Changes sound like they might warm me up to the EDC. Verrryyyy nice.

Edit: Nathan, if the grind is a bit higher, but thickness it up a little bit, is it then a better slicer but thinning the handles make it the same thickness in hand?

 

[Casinostocks]

I'll take it!

Sounds good, thanks!

Any chance of pre-order on these?

With a production estimate of over 100, I certainly would hope so.

Nathan, please offer some in 4V... Pleeeaaassse

Believe Nathan stated 175 in an earlier post-D3V

I second the pre-orders. That would be great.

Hope the new sheath doesn't ride so high up the handle so we can get a fuller grip during extraction. Long shot, but will we see chamfered edges for comfort when carrying naked? Safe to assume that the updated handles can be ordered separately for use with the current model EDC?

Maybe Adam will be on the next season of Naked and Very Afraid? Sporting a CPK-EDC 2.0? Stranger things have happened before!

Hair longer blade as in 3.5, 3.75?

Will the EDC1 scales fit?

yes

I thought I had enough EDCs. I guess not. Especially if some in 4v.
