Which Emerson?

[Glock19C_Gunner]

I'm having a little trouble deciding between which Emerson I should get; I've narrowed it down to the CQC-11, or the CQC-15.....only thing I don't like about the CQC-11, is that its just over 4 inches, and I prefer to keep my knives sub-4 inches....but, alas, I don't really like the looks of the handle on the CQC-15. Anyone have one or both of these? Whats you take on them? Also, I heard that the new Emersons don't have titanium on both sides. I take it that the liner lock side is the titanium side, while the other side is steel?

Any info would be great! Thanks!

all the EKI's are ti/ti now, and the great majority of ti/steel models (possibly all) were k'bits, so imho that shouldnt be a problem, to be honest i dont think it matters much anyway, unless ya lived on the coast and worried about corrosion, the weight difference was miniscule, it just didnt matter, that said i would want the ti/ti too though, but really imho a ti/steel one might be a collector item due to the fact that not many were ever made.

of the 2 ya mention, i havent owned them but have handled them, and own/have owned a lotta EKI's, custom and production, of those 2 i would get the '15, i like the way it looks better, i have never really liked the commander or the '11, mostly due to aesthetics, they are good knives, nothing wrong with them, just didnt grab me, i liked the '15 though and might eventually get one myself, but i prefer the CQC12, HD7, CQC8, CQC13 and the SOCFK though, those are my favs.
