The reason is fairly simple, I am lefthanded. And I have budget limits what I can go for, so try to keep my decisions in a common way.

Arend, what are you missing there? Aside from more SE? :D ;)

there is the progrip with partial serrations...surely that should be sufficient Arend:p

plus the C07 is full SE ;)

In general, I prefer PE as its easier to sharpen, I can sharpen it much better as SE and it does not tear the material, just cuts clean. Second, if I should look at a knife from a weapon perspective, PE is a much better choice.

i missed that first one...i was too busy looking at the G10 police:D ....as far as PE vs SE for SD i dont know if that is entirely true...i mean look at the civilian (even though they did make some in PE). i am sure someone will chime in that knows more about SD and knives but i can tell you that i have brought in a few patients on the ambo with some slashing knife wounds and seeing a ton of their blood spewing from their face took the fight right out of them.

That is an outstanding collection sir, I have to say that I am just a bit envious of your cutlery! :D

That big Calypso is a classic slicing machine, and the grey Caly Jr. is one that I really regret not getting. I'm really glad to see that you got a pink D4 too, it is my current EDC.

Nothing lacking in your arsenal, I admire your tastes!

It may not be a "big" collection, but it's a great one! :spyder: You've got some special pieces there, my friend.

Thanks for the kind words, a lot of precious pieces would not be there being not the great support and friendship of people who I honour in a big way. My thanks to you guys, you know who you are ;)

Tony, its not a G10 Police, the second from top is a C54 Calypso.

Axlis, the pink D4 should go to my GF but in the meantime we broke up, so I received the knife after shes gone. I played with it this week a couple of times and thinking about carrying it maybe, just the color is too bright and would SCREAM from clipped in a pocket.
