New BM Grip Inbound

[edcgear]

Ash I haven't asked, what model is it?

I have 555HG (in yellow and black) and preffer this one over 556, 551 or 557 model for bladeshape and spydie-like hole instead of thumbstud...

I EDC mine daily, and just love it (the yellow one, the black is for sale)

You know, I've always kinda liked the Griptilians, but I could never get around carrying one regularly.  I've bought a couple of minis used over the years but I always end up selling them after a month or two. 

Same with a lot of Kershaw models but that one's more due to the rust-magnet bead blasted Sandvik steels.

Kershaws sure do rust easy. Well this may not be in the pocket long. I found something else today somewhere that I've wanted for a while. Just gotta wait on the cash.

Oh, whats your new find? I've taken to carrying my BM rift lately, it seems to have replaced my 940 for the time being.

As far as the griptillian goes, I never actually handled a mini-grip so I don't have a comparison. I just didn't get the feel of the full size griptillian so I sort of ignored the mini-grip. As I said its the handle material that puts me off it, they are great knives and I have no functional complaints about it.

I actually wound up giving my griptillian to a friend when his Naval reserve unit deployed a few months ago. He is left handed so most of the liner/frame lock knives were a no go. Actually I think I had a thread on here about that.
