Skyline or Leek?

hmm if you liked the heft of the blur a leek will feel small to you but if you got used to using the thumb studs on the blur you'll probably find a skyline frustrating to say the least. I'd vote leek
 
The two G10 Leeks are both great knives, although they're both discontinued and getting a bit more difficult to find. If you do come across one, though, they're definitely worth a look.

There were more than two different G10 Leeks. PGT, PGTST, G10, G10ST, TG10, CGT, CGTST, T1G10, etc....

Oooh... Forgot about the polished G10 ones. Those look pretty awesome. I hadn't heard of the T1G10, but after a quick search, I found a post by Morrow from a few years back with some pics. Pretty cool pattern machined on that one too.

Leave it to our resident Leek expert to chime in with info. Thanks! :)
 
I have both but I don't carry either. Both are a little too thin for me. But both are really nice small knives if having a small, thin knife is the priority.

Incidentally, Kershaw may call that Leek blade a tanto but it's actually more of a sheepsfoot/lambsfoot with a curved belly instead of a straight edge. "Upside down tanto" maybe?

Unfortunately most of the G10 Leeks are hard to find. The G10 is the easiest, but pricey on the big auction site now.....
 
leek all of the way. no questions.


Hey guys this is my first time posting cause I'm pretty new here but I need some help.

I own a partially serrated Kershaw Blur but I accidentally left it back in storage in another state so I won't be able to get it back at least until the end of summer. That being said, I'm looking for a new EDC for the summer. I don't want anything above $50 because I don't need anything particularly fancy, and so far the Skyline and Leek have caught my attention. Any recommendations on either one given that I already have the Blur?
