Nice looking blade.
I've got a Spyderco Caly 3 ZDP-189 on the way now to check out. Really curious about that ZDP blade. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> i have the zdp delica. it's good, but i don't feel it's worth the premium over similar blades in vg-10 or s30v. i sold my zdp endura and i'm very happy with the vg-10 endura. that leaf blade, however, is amazing. same blade's on my UKPK in s30v, which is probably the best EDC knife i own. leek, delica, and pioneer are the top competition. in short, you're gonna love that knife.

Those scales on that griptilian look almost like Jade. Very nice and unique.

After reviewing the many pics of folders and reading the comments, I have decided I need to buy a new folder. The issue is with all the good suggestions I am overwhelmed.

my favorite folder that has been rescued! I bought this Delica off the exchange for 10.00. It was serrated and when I got it I noticed the tip was broken and someone had "fixed it" resulting the loss of about 1/8th inch of the Blade. I asked Tom Krein if it could be saved. The man is good. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> ![[Linked Image from i353.photobucket.com]](http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r378/chickenplucker/IMG_0654.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i353.photobucket.com]](http://i353.photobucket.com/albums/r378/chickenplucker/IMG_0655.jpg)

wilkinsgrip are grips made by wilkins he makes them for certain benchmades and some other guy just a few models...i think his deal is purely grips...im not sure itf its custom or not but its [censored] comfy! as vic would say it "fills the hand". the wilkins grip is 5x better than the stock griptilian grips

Darned Cold Steel folders. They always bite me. After three days of abuse, chopping and splitting maple, slashing palmettos, and two sessions of chopping out fat lighter, my new Rajah II was looking a bit neglected. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SMLE017.jpg) So I put the blade to the Scotchbrite wheel, and removed the sap and coating. Then I gave it a sharper convex edge. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/RajahII004.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/RajahII003.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/RajahII002.jpg) And as I was moving it out of the way, my left thumb just barely grazed the edge. I watched and waited, and sure enough, the blood started to flow. Not a deep cut, but right on the inside joint. Don't mess with Rajah!
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Another hell of an edge Vic! Folders like this one look to be a good choice for a "tough" EDC option!
