For as long as I've been careful with sharp objects, I've almost never cut myself seriously. However, this does not cover the times I've been fooling around. But if I pay attention to "measure twice cut once" (which includes getting fingers out of the way), I almost never cut myself. That ...

Thank you for the pictures, it is a beautiful knife! Congratulations on the purchase, now I wish I had known about the 2014 model when I bought my Manix 2. Though, the lack of skeletonized liners makes me want to just wait for a Sprint to come along.

Looks beautiful, is it just the lighting or is the blade tumble finished?

The mini Grip is a good knife, but I prefer the ergos of Spyderco FRN. The handle length and blade-to-handle ratio of the MG is all excellent, but I did not find the handle to have the same traction as a Spyderco bi-directional grip. michaelm brings up a good point. When the price of the MG was almo...

$150 for a Para2 is a fair price to pay. If you really want a Para2 you either pay a little bit more for one that is actually in stock, or risk a cheaper priced one selling out in 10 seconds.

I'd vote for an FFG Manix 2 in K390, but I also wouldn't hold it against anyone for wanting a Millie or Para2.

Absolutely brilliant! I really like the clear/GID combination, especially so on the Para2.

I too am curious about plans to produce a batch of these scales for sale.

Mmmm, a big bowl of pho and a glass of ca phe sua da sounds excellent now. I'm a huge fan of spicy food, so much of my list will be hot. Ethnically I am quite mixed (Scottish/Russian/Egyptian) but as far as what I ate growing up, I will need to leave Mediterranean/Middle-eastern food out of my list....

I have a Paramilitary 2 in the mail, so I am free to be creative with my next choices. 1. Super Blue Dragonfly 2 would be towards the top of my list. I got a laminated Super Blue santoku for Christmas, and so far I love the steel. 2. I am curious about the new Taichung Roc folder, not sure if I &quo...
