Knife review: Spyderco Kopa (Giraffe bone) and Fallkniven U2: exquisite and compact

[seesundae1]

Nevermind, I got it. It doesn't look good without the pocket clip. There's an indention where the clip goes and it's not polished inside. I'm putting the clip back on.

I can't unscrew the screws holding the Kopa's pocket clip on. I've basically stripped the heads and they wouldn't budge! Other than that, it's a well made knife - lighter than you would think with the materials that are in it.

Very nice. I have sooo got to get myself a Kopa.

If the u2 had one hand opening, it would be my choice.

The kopa is nice but I hate that large finger choil.

Spyderco waists allot of blade with their choils. In bushcraft,  choil and guards are a monstrosity. They hinder power cutting.

Regarding the Kopa, I think the choils are very functional and adds a significant margin of safety to the knife. And remember, most Spyderco knives are EDC folders, not bushcraft knives. Personally, I would have liked a slightly deeper choil like the Caly 3. Aside from that, my Kopa is an excellent knife.
