      Personally I'd spend a little bit more and buy a Benchmade 707 Sequel by Mchenry and Williams. It's around $160 and it is a very nice blade.

        Oh, and for manual sharpening, vg10 seems easier to get a hair popping edge in my experience. Doesn't hold an edge as long so it's a give and take. Depends on how much you use your knives between sharpenings and how good at it you are

          Knifeworks.com has it for less than that plus a 25% off coupon

            Thanks again guys.  I will try the Delica i think. 
            For about $75 I think its worth trying.

              Doug do you like the 707. I think it's a great little knife and a step up from both the mini grip and delica

                Are you getting the zdp189 version? Because at $75, that's too much for vg10

                The delica is a very good knife

                    I like the blade shape and handle, but the Axis lock never "connected" with me. It's a solid lock proven by time, but I just can't get into it

                      Then again, my favorite and most used knife is a Swiss Army knife, so the fuck do I know…

                        Doug I just ordered the C11FPBL from cuttlery shoppe.  Thanks very much for your help.

                        Will post it up here if it makes it through customs 😉

                          I have the full size Griptilian and even though I love the knife but I absolutely hate the original scales (bulky and cheap) - so much that I got the Kevin Wilkins scales (quite bulky as well but expensive - and it sits better in my hand. The grip on it is unbelievable 🙂 ) for mine and now it's perfect. I love the axis lock and love how you can flick the knife open and closed.

                          It's a tad large for EDCing but that's what I do anyway because it's so nice.

                          AIAN HA-TO!

                            We stopped in a nice little knife shop in New Hope, PA on the way to the Converge show in Philly.

                            Jeff got a Chris Reeves knife and…

                            A bad ass gift for me. Words can not describe how nice Jeff is or how fucking tough this knife is.

                              I've been eyeing a ZT for a while now… If my Sebenza doesn't make it over quickly enough, I might buy a new knife...  😠

                                Amen! I bought his William Henry, it's unbelievable. I showed it to my wife, who daily carries and she was like, "oh my god, can I have it? Please, please, please. It's so beautiful!" I'm not sure how I feel about my wife having a way nicer knife than me.

                                    You just bought the two knives I've been thinking of… It's even in my mail to the CRK customer service...

                                    I should add that I'm currently eyeing both a Mnandi and a Ti-Lock… Please stop making such kickass knives!..

                                      Eli I have a Startac Umnumzaan coming this week. The Ti Lock is a tremendous knife however it does not have the durability of a Umnumzaan or Sebenza it's more of a gentlemen's carrier.
