    I’ve owned several Keens, such a good cutter w/ great geometry. It’s a lot of knife for less money than a base model PM2. It’s just as good a value today as it was 2 years ago.

    Hard not to like Ray Laconico designs, they just seem to be made for the hand. Not overbuilt swords, not under built small knives, basically in the Goldilocks “just right” zone. 👍🏻

  • @joshstarkey8883

    When this came out the most expensive knife I had ever bought was a 154cm mini griptilian. I debated in my head about the purchase but eventually pulled the trigger and got a purple Keen with the holes. I own way more knives now but the quality of the Keen is still very impressive, it's a great design and super smooth.

    Drop makes unbelievable knives. I have 2 of them, and I'll never get rid of them. Both are FF design (the Dao and Gent), total winners. And I have my eye on another FF design Drop, but I need to save up a few ducats because it's $170. It's definitely worth it, but that's towards the top of my knife spending dollar amount. I have a couple knives in the $220 range but that's absolute tops.

    That's one knife I seriously regret not adding to my collection. I really should get one, especially considering I'm a big Laconico fan. I can't get one from your Amazon link though. Damn Amazon won't ship it to my location, so I'll have to have a friend order it then send it to me. Amazon sucks that way. They seem to think that the entire state of NY has to abide by NYC knife laws, which is absolutely not the case. I think BHQ is selling them now too though.
    It's old news now brother. As new knives drop, the older ones get pushed aside and forgotten about. That's why you no longer hear people singing it's praises.

In the u.s it might be easier .I really like Rays designs and one day it will pop up on secondary market ..if im lucky i will be fast enough to pick it up.

      @@NeevesKnives Thanks, I hadn't seen that one before. I've been into knives for a long time, but mostly stuck to Spyderco. The Spyderco Kapara looks pretty cool too; it's really similar to the PM2 that I have now. I know that I love their compression lock. I had a Spyderco Military a few years ago, and I didn't like how the blade wasn't centered when it was closed.
      One thing I really like about those Drop knives is the case and cleaning cloth that are included. I've been sticking my Spydiechef in the pouch that came with my cannabis grinder lol that's my shirt pocket knife.
      I really shouldn't even spend more money since I just bought a competition pistol a couple months ago, but I haven't bought a knife in almost a year. I'm also considering the Zero Tolerance 0308 and 0562. I think it might be a good idea to try one of those Hinderer ZT's before splurging on a real Hinderer, but I'm sure that Hinderer's are worth the high price. I also like that they are made here in Ohio. Decisions, decisions...

Some of them had weak detent., the one I had had a dangerous weak detent drop would not fix it or replace it, I since bought two from the forum.
