This is my 4th GEC and possibly my favorite. I know I've only had it a short time but it's just so pocket friendly and the main blade is just the right size for EDC. The spring is just right on this one, not to hard to open but not to soft either, maybe a 4 to 5. I went back and forth on the Conductor and the White Owl but decided to go #33 and I'm super happy with it at the moment. It will be my new EDC for the next few weeks anyway so I can get a real feel for it. It's just so light!
