I recently arranged a semi-spontaneousl swap for a Landi PSK. I know almost nothing about these and have not found much beyond the Landi website.

A penny for your thoughts?
 
I think the knife on the bottom is a Landi PSK:

It's a Landi to be sure, but he does different sizes of these knives; I think this one is his PSK. It's an excellent EDC-type knife. Takes a great edge, is light, and comfortable to use.

It has lots of belly, but sacrifices a pointy tip as a result. I've never found this to be a problem. Sweet knife. Of the 4 in this picture, I find I carry the Landi most often. I'm not sure why that's the case, it's just a great little knife.

(knives from top are: Krein, Gossman, Dozier, Landi)
 
I have one in orange, great knife. Mines either 1095 or 01. Holds a good edge and has plenty of handle to grab onto. Works great as a necker.

Well, I am a bit concerned that it isn't pointier, but it seems like a neat knife and I was wanting to try something different for a pocketable/edc fixed blade.

It's plenty pointy, don't worry about it. ;)
 
It is replacing a BRKT Mini Canadian. There's nothing wring with the Mini C, I'm just bored and ready for a change.

nice knife. not too big not tooo little
very sharp , works for a nice coat knife.

I have one enroute :) (after looking at a lot of knives)- this one offered what I was looking for in a backpacking knife and a EDC knife- strength and lightweight at a decent pricepoint- the looks aren't too shabby either :D

a lot of knives in this blade length tend to shorten up the handle a fair bit, the PSK looks like it will fill the hand pretty well (for such a small knife anyways)

I agree about the handle lengths on a lot of the smaller knives. That is one of the most appealing reasons for wanting a Landi psk myself:thumbup:
 
I just bought a Landi PSK 2 weeks ago. The handle is a great fit for this knife. The blade is easy to use and it does quite well with most things that you would use a knife for on a daily basis.

As for the knife not being pointy enough. I found it to be just fine for everything except cleaning squirrel. Which isn't a daily thing. I would by another one if I were to lose this one.:thumbup:
 
I have the bigger brother in O1.
it's very sharp and easy to keep that way.
I just love it.

I carry mine every day, and have used it for basic woods tasks as well. It's my go-to knife. Mine has natural micarta scales and a well-earned patina!
 
Landi has some slick designs. I like the simplicity of his designs - just good looking handles with versatile blade shapes.
