Victorinox Grip Series.
on: March 31, 2010, 02:00:22 AM

These feel very nice and comfortable in the hand. No surprise, as they are based upon the new Soldier. I like these very much.

How does the Dual Pro feel in the hand with that second opening hole in the way?

it perplexes me why the dual pro has 2 OHO serrated blades.  I think they should replace the main blade with a plain edge.  Wait, they should do that on ALL their OHO knives!

Oddly enough, the second blade on the Pro does not bother me.

I believe the new DAK will have a non serrated blade Kmarr. It isn't out yet from what I gather.

Replace?  Boooooooo! :twak:
They should offer the choice though.  It looks like they are moving in that direction.

The Dual Pro X will have a Plain-Edge main blade if you like (should be available in the near future; maybe very near).  The new DAK (DAK-2010) keeps the serrated blade as most of the military knives do.

The Dual Pro X sounds pretty damn close to an ideal EDC. I kinda like the part serrated blade they use, and am pretty close to pulling the trigger on a OH Sentinel with that blade, but on the Dual Pro it's just superfluous and redundant.

Really bugs me as well.  Thankfully, the X will be available soon  :tu:
