I missed out

 

[SpyderPhreak]

My DEF. Double black canvas. All business.

Somehow I don’t think I have any pics of my UF2. Will have to remedy that situation…

Luv me some ECAM and Lorien Leather

Good looking combo!

 

[Redclay]

Thanks! Black canvas with Blue Ti fasteners is probably going to be my go to moving forward.

 

[Hammer67]

Decided to swap scales on my UF2 and DEF. Double black seemed fitting for the latter.

I missed out

The UF2 was such an outstanding outstanding well thought out, well designed, and well implemented knife. I'm so proud of the work. If you don't have one you really are missing out. They're not big, they're not flashy, but they are so excellent.

Couldn’t agree more. If I were forced to keep one fixed blade (god forbid) it would be the UF2. Then it would be difficult to decide between the Std or DEF version…….

Well, here's another boat I missed...

Hi Nathan and Lorien :

Love the UF as you know.

From the CPK website: “The grip on the UF was derived from the Shiv, and now the grip on the Shiv is derived from the updated UF”.

I remember you, Lorien, once mentioning that DEK1 and UF are related in your mind, and I’ve always treated the DEK1 as a small UF myself.

What was the timing of the three knives, which came first, influences on the designs, etc. ? A little bit more (knife) family history, please.

Thanks,

Roland.

If I were forced to keep one fixed blade, it would be both

Seriously, has to be the UF. For the occasional batoning, forward grip on the blade, etc.

I won’t part with my UF2! The handle is perfection.

Making fun of Roland’s “big, good, strong hands…”?
