Re: Case Flippers
First, I like the looks of that CRKT knife, even has a filler tab for right or left handed pocket clip carry, which is something seen on the better tactical folders. It yields a sleek, finished look in my opinion.
As far as the X-Tac designs go, I'm glad Case is doing something different with these Bradford made flippers. Too often manufacturers (Frost, Boker, Ka-Bar, etc.) cloud the lines of where a new production knife is made. If Case started making some knives in the USA and some made in China/offshore, I would definitely start to question the authenticity of USA made Case knives.
I do not have anything against Chinese knives, I own dozens in fact. But I do have an issue with deception.

Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!

Re: Case Flippers
I wonder how this new line will compare with the Benchmade Griptilion, the price is in the same neighborhood.
I pay extra for patina
Re: Case Flippers
With the Marilla being a flipper I'm not sure what this knife compares to, I'm curious to read some reviews on how smooth it opens, lockup and releases before I would compare or buy.
