Thinking about possibly picking up a flavor of the 0350, and I'd love to have either of the composite versions. Problem is, do I pay a premium to pick up one of the long discontinued 0350CB with the Elmax or should I get one of the readily available ZDP-189 versions for a cheaper price?

I really like the composite design more on the Elmax version, but if it's going to cost me 50% more to get it, I'm not sure it'd be worth it. Hmmm :p
 
Elmax is cool stuff.

Lol, I was researching into the difference of ZDP vs Elmax yesterday just because I saw one of the 0350CB with their cool patterning (I have the ZDP one). I was thinking "WTF?! Why couldn't they put a pattern this cool on the ZDP one?"

While I prefer ZDP more than Elmax, and the ZDP is rarer (Kershaw made about 3 times more Elmax ones than ZDP), that patterning is freaking cool on the Elmax.

I can't :( I've seriously been spending way too much money on knives lately. I think I can get away with one, and even that is pushing it lol.

I warn you I bought the ZDP version and then a few months later I had the ELMAX version also.
 
I vastly prefer Elmax to ZDP-189, so I'd take that even if it cost me a bit more.
 
I think part of it will be...........can you even find one of the 0350CBs? Just picked up a 0350CBZDP and so far I love it!
