spyderco uk penknife vs. urban

[lokiman123]

does one have a stronger lock than the other?

on the spyderco website it appeared the uk had jimping only for the thumb and that the urban had jimping only for the index finger. is that correct?

if anyone owns both, can you tell me which one you prefer for carry around sheeple?

The UK penknife doesn't lock, it's a slipjoint, as per UK law.

They are both slipjoints without an actual lock. SInce the Urban is more or less a scaled down version of the UKPK I would imagine the slipjoint tension of them to be pretty similar.
