Because of where I live and work, I usually stick with small traditional folders. Around the house or outdoors I carry a fixed blade +/- a modern folder. My latest folder purchase is the spyderco advocate, which has a lot of features that I would like to see in a CPK folder:
Not-too-thick and not-too-thin 0.12" stock with a high grind.
Narrow blade profile with a fine, centered, useful point & not too much belly.
Lightweight considering the materials and size.
Good overall ergonomics, at least for light use.
I can take or leave the flipper and the handle finish. Some things I don't like:
Bad pivot design with tiny bearings. I prefer washers.
Slim handle without much contour, and uncomfortable for my hand when gripped tightly.
Overall, the materials and the design fit my needs well. Of course I would like to see a CPK folder that includes some of these features and design philosophy.
But, you know, this spyderco advocate is just another of many modern tactical flippers. Just my opinion, and nobody here would complain if the upcoming CPK flipper is another standard modern tactical flipper. But I am really impressed by the two CPK knives I own, and I am excited by the possibility that you will produce something really new and innovative in this upcoming design.
