I'm a big fan of mollettas designs and own a couple of Sr 11's and a m5 fixed blade.
This is another must have for me.
What do you guys/gals think?

Re: Another molletta stroke of genius?
I've been very tempted by that one myself.
I have really liked my Lionsteels. I actually like the SR-1 better than the LionSpy.
I've also had really good experiences with Sleipner. I wish spyderco would run something in that--maybe a LionSpy sprint?

Re: Another molletta stroke of genius?
I have a few LionSteel knives. ...all are top notch in design , ergos, and manufacturing!
I'm definitely going to get the aluminum version of this new Molletta design! That retractable pocket clip is ingenious and hopefully highly functional. I think the removable flipper tab is a good idea ...but more gimmicky from my point of view.
Has anyone seen the MKM line of knives out of Italy?
I have my eye on this beautiful blade. https://www.bladehq.com/item--MKM-Bur ... k--87977

I really like lionsteels Sleipner to, i think they run it quite hard (61 hrc). The Rok comes with m390 though, not a bad choice either.
I do think i'll be buying an aluminium one too, more bang for the buck, and lighter than the titanium.
I have red/Black and black/Black sr11's, so I guess it Will be a orange/Black ROK, awesome colour combo and the lionsteel dlc coating is really tough so no worries there.

Re: Another molletta stroke of genius?
Got to handle This one while visiting a friend last weekend.. Great knife, much smaller than the Sr11, but still capable.
The flipper feels a little strange, but works well (same as the T. R. E)
This particular Version with the baby blue/greenish titanium and Damascus was way over the top for me, and more than double the Price of the aluminium one.

Re: Another molletta stroke of genius?
I did try the pocket clip, i was a little surprised that when pressed open it felt a little loose, maybe it was Just This one. Other than that i liked the clip and when closed it felt solid.Extra330SC wrote: ↑Fri Feb 22, 2019 6:28 pmVery nice! Did you try the retractable pocket clip? Thoughts?
