Hey TW! Let's see your knives!

The Blur has A/O which helps deploy the blade quickly.

 

For sure, it's a great slicer, but there is zero material behind the tip - I wouldn't mind if it was slightly thicker stock or ground differently so the tip was reinforced with a little more steel on the spine.

 

Is the "flick" in the Benchmade called anything ?

 

I'm sure they have some proprietary name for a spring assisted open but I've never owned an auto Benchmade.

AXIS lock is great, though. I really want a Ritter Grip, but I reaaaaally have no use for it.

 

Yea that is what drew me to the Cryo II. That sumbitch has a fat spine. It is a heavy knife though.

 

Fat spines are love.

Here's the F1 spine next to a Spydie Delica..

 

My EDC knife is a RAT chain drive... Great knife..
Really, I only use automatic or flipper knives.

 

I wouldn't mind a work sharp.

 

My BM has the axis lock ( maybe they all do) but not assist opening. But it flicks open and closed super fast and easy.

 

I appreciate that it convexes everything.

 

Do you have the mini griptilian?

 

Yup. 556 I think. It's a perfect knife. But of course I had to buy the PM2 and Sage 2. But I carry the BM a lot.

 

How do you compare the mini grip to the PM2

 

I agree

The cryo is my everyday knife.
it doesn't hold the sharp edge for long but it is a good everyday knife that's not expensive at all so I wouldn't be bothered if I lost it.

 

By the way, what is the difference between Spyderco Sharpmaker and Lansky Deluxe Sharpening System?

 

Buddy I need info on your FOBs and other craftsman work. My wife wants to buy me something nice for my 40th B-day, and your work came to mind. I know you are on IG, but how does the ordering process goes??? Thanks @bullaculla !!!

 

Mini Grip to PM2 aren't even a good comparison. Maybe the full size Grip would compare better. The PM2 is a great knife. Amazing quality and the compression lock is superb. But I carry my Mini Grip 9/10 times instead of the PM2. I have to be in the mood to carry the PM2 or maybe just want to switch it up.

Like I said, lately I've been carrying my Sage 2. It's so thin and I'm just blown away by it at the moment. But I'm sure the Mini Grip will work its way back in as my EDC. For $80 I feel like it's a great knife. I just had to have a PM2 just because.
