I paid more than I wanted to. Just don't know when it'll come around again and they are hard to find.

I got one a month or so ago.

As a lefty, I'd really prefer a knife, with the stone handle embellishments, be done on both sides.

For a knife like this, I would pocket carry and not worry about a clip.

It's a good trade off for a non self defense, utility knife.

So what's all the buzz and hoopla over the super blue blades?

So, I was out to lunch today at this really good catfish place, and this weird city slicker kept staring at my butt the whole time! I don't know what his problem was. But anyway, got to try out my new orange Assist today, and so far I'm loving it! Sarcasm ... The world needs more of it. By the way,...

Well, sounds like I'm in the minority, but I still think the hump makes the blade shape more interesting. In any case, I'm excited to pick one up when they're out. I asked someone at the SFO the other day and they said they expect to have stock by August. Just in time for my birthday! :D Well, I wo...

Just got my kiwi with stainless grips. Lovely knife.

I would so love to see this blade shape, without the hump, in a better steel with mother of pearl on both sides in a limited run. No clip... Obviously... But coming to a standard kiwi point.

An "ultimate gentleman's folder".

Wow..

But if I were doing what this guy is doing with a blade, it wouldn't be a folder. I'd be using a fixed blade ... And a larger one at that! Thinking Becker campanion or bk7, which I own a few of each and have used for what he's doing. There's no way I'd do this to a folder...even in a survival situat...

I want

This is a knife I want to own. Did I see that right? A Delica size Kiwi in G10? I really like this. I like the removal of the hump on the Kiwi and the way it almost comes to appear a little like that Des Horn. To me this is definitely a gentleman's blade. I have to say it's a very handsome knife and...

I'm excited. Besides the S110V Manix 2 that I had no idea was even in the works for this year, the Kiwi 4 is the only new model I have any interest in, besides the S90V Yojimbo 2 sprint coming later this year. S90 yojimbo 2 you say? Hmmm .. I just got the g10... I'll be thinking about both of these...

From the moment I opened the box, I knew this knife was special. I'm not sure my Spydie collection would have grown much if I had bought this one first. Well, I'd still have the Matriarch and Civilian at least.

Okay, I'd have the others too. LOL

Now what's that release date for the ROC?
