Here is a Yuna EQ 2 I just picked up. It is my first custom folder and it certainly has not disapointed.
First thing you notice about this knife is the smal size. Sometimes its hard to determine the size of a
knife from looking at pictures and until you have it in your hand you really dont know what it will be like.
The EQ 2 is a small knife but the ergos and shape fit extremely well in hand and feels really solid. The
full length of the knife opened is about as long as a ballpoint pen.

The next thing you notice about this knife are the aesthetics. From the beautiful polished ATS-34 blade,
to the flamed titanium, to the ying-yang pivot, and professionally milled G10. This knife screams custom
quality work. It really is hard to believe that Yun makes these knives with simple hand tools. It just shows
how much time and effort he puts into each knife that comes out of his shop.

I havent had the chance to EDC this knife yet but I can already tell that it will make a great edc secondary
knife that can handle everyday tasks and will comftorbly fit almost anywhere. I found the best carry method
for me, which is illustrated in the last picture. It fits perfectly in the small watch pocket just above my normal
carry knife. Having now handled one of Yun's knive makes me want to check out more of his work. He makes
a few style of blades that can fit most any role, from edc to self defense. So if you've been on the fence about
trying out one of Yuna's blades like I was, I say do it and do it NOW.

Smaller is better , sometimes. It sure does not hurt to have a few small folders or fixed's to include in your collection and that Yuna is one to have for sure! I've been eyeballing and lusting over his knives since first seeing them appear on BF some years back , the man does some amazing work !!

Although a smaller folder it looks like it fits the mitt quite well and would do near anything you need it to do , just make sure you don't lose it outta your watch pocket ! :D I would purge myself by flailing willow branches upon me if I lost a Yuna...
