Speed Holes: Good or Evil?

Maybe he's talking about the speed opening hole in the blade, as spyderco does.

Sorry, but I am triggered by your use of completely made up and incorrectly spelled terminology. It is "stickie-outie bit".

That's the British spelling

Sao folders . . .holes just look messy to me.

In a fixed blade: In many of his knives, Bob Loveless managed overall weight and its distribution with a tapered tang and distal taper to the blade.

In my view, holes are an elegant approach to weight management.

I generally don't like the way they look too.

A hefty fuller can also be effective and is more esthetically appealing than holes . . .to me any way.

So we aren’t talking about handle holes?
