Nice knife mate.I almost always have an Alox Cadet on me these days, today happened to be blue. Most of my SAKs are recent purchases, and with as little as they get used these days, it will take some time before they start showing any wear.

Yes it's a great knife. Nice to hold and use. It has a very positive snap when closing, and I find that satisfying. I guess its blade geometry, but I find it takes a finer edge then 91mm. It's spent many a day in my pocket and doesn't show any sign of wear.How do you like the Solo? I picked up the 1 (current version I guess), and find it to be a nice slim lightweight single-blade. Definitely surprised I liked it.

I think your right, I prefer the silver as well.![]()
Silver Alox might not be the most photogenic alox color but it's just somehow classic to me.
