GB 2 is based
I finally got my hands on a Gayle Bradley folder, the 2nd edition with jade G10 and Cruwear. It's such a straightforward design with really no nonsense or unnecessary features. It's just a solid blade shape, with no finger choil and a very sturdy handle that feels full and solid. When I hold it, I can't help but think how based this knife is. I'm glad to have one.

Yes.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Re: GB 2 is based
i really want to try one of these. i'm honestly a little worried it would become my new favorite model because i love a good hollow grind. i'd really like to see one in magnacut or something stainless though. i got spots on my cruwear ayoob, so i might as well just go with m4 if i'm going to get a gb2. i'd have to get micarta scales to go with it though. fancy cf and patina don't go together imo.
keep your knife sharp and your focus sharper.

Re: GB 2 is based
I agree, a good knife. Out of my collection the knife I compare to often is the stretch 2 straight spine(the drop point version would be even more comparable) they’re both phenomenal designs, but I think I prefer the stretch ergonomics just a little better. A few reasons being: it’s a lockback, has a comfortable choil, and a prominent guard and pinky hook to the handle design. but I do love the drop point shape with the deep hollow grind of the Gayle Bradley blades. I would love a spyderco stretch 1 or 2 drop point with a hollow saber grind.
Re: GB 2 is based
I'm still trying to decide between CF or Jade.
