...all but ended my folder collecting. These were they.

I bought these when they were introduced. Here are some impressions after having lived with them.

The Tenacious shortly became my primary 4" folder and has been since. When I can't carry a multitool in conjunction, it will stay home while i carry the Vic Adventurer or Pioneer. I've sold and passed on many knives thinking "It's fine. I have the Tenacious."

Then there's the UKPK. Is there any aspect of this knife that was included in the design for a purpose other than utility, ergonomics, or quality? Every penny you spend on this knife goes toward the use. It has affected my thoughts on knives. No, you don't need a lock for a strong knife. Yes, S30V + G10 is worth the money (finally).

The ZDP Delica has yet to be used. I always reach for my old VG-10 model, which occurs so infrequently because of the UKPK.

In all, I have absolutely no complaints. The quality is all there and sticks with you. I will call them "collection killers" henceforth.

Sal, you are the best at what you do. Thank you for doing it.

(By the way your UKPK bit me yesterday.)
