The Lynch deep carry clips are fantastic. I use them on my Delica and PM2 and really need to pick one up for ky Tenacious. They’re much better than the standard Spyderco clip.

My first Frontflipper - Civivi Crit, Blade and Tools run on the same liner.
My Kizer Lätt Vind has is both a front and back flipper. I find myself using the back mostly, but, the front is adequate as well. The Crit looks like something I would carry around the house.

- Handle Material: Cherry red pakka
- Left or Right handed: Either (Double Bevel)
I thought BBQ‘s, to have a decent steak knife as well as something for the beers around
Oh, that looks handy. I have a ff Civivi with a similar blade size, but a bottle opener is always welcome.
Just don’t do what I did and drunkenly put a hole in your leg playing with the front flipper, and need to make a late night trip to the emergency room. True story.
The one on the blade is not as easy to open as the other. Also on the YT vids people were opening them with their index finger but I can’t do that. I use thumb as you would open a knife with a stud. Not super fast but that is rarely needed in my surroundings.
Will carry it today. It looks like a regular SAK on steroids
They take a little more practice than a regular flipper, but after a little while they are just as quick to open. I use my thumb.The one on the blade is not as easy to open as the other.

Mine came in today, and, I can totally see a steak knife. The flippers will take some getting used to.I thought BBQ‘s, to have a decent steak knife as well as something for the beers around
Also three lanyards arrived.
I’m still working on the flippers but super fast is actually not really needed. How do you like the hook blade?
Haven’t tried it yet, but, it looks like it could be useful. I would be perfectly happy opening it two handed as far as speed goes. I have other knives for that role. I just got my SAK recently, and, haven’t carried it much. This could definitely be seen as an upgrade.
It isn't in my hand yet but I just ordered a Moritaka 250mm Gyuto from Chefknivestogo. Aogami Super steel, flatter profile, thin tip, nice assymetrical grinding left to right for food release.
I'm wanting to rotate out my Hiromoto AS 240mm that I got in a group buy here from Dave Martell many years back. It is holding up great but I want to keep her nice. That and I'm tired of using my "retired" Mercers from my culinary school kit.
I'll post pictures when the Moritaka shows up. I'm looking forward to the first time is bites me and makes me bleed so we can bond and be one.

I don't remember who I got the deep carry titanium clip for my Delica 4 through. It is game changing on how much better it is to carry in a pocket. I lost a couple of Kershaw Leeks because the butt of the knife sticking out of my chef pants pocket would get caught on something and pull out or rip my pocket... I had the problem with the Delica getting caught but it never got pulled out of my pocket but it was annoying so deep carry clip it is! It would be nice if one came standard on most knives or as an option.
It is here!!! The Moritaka AS 250mm. I washed it and cut an onion right away. I can't wait to get to work tomorrow and prep the entire line, 11 wedding tastings and finally the 200 person wedding on Saturday. I was afraid the wa style handle would be too thin but it fits my carpal tunnel/arthritic hands comfortably as it is not skinny and tapers from the butt to the horn.
It has a touch of birds beakind at the tip but it will sharpen out quick. It had no effect on performance at dicing that onion.
It also looks longer than it actually is. I am happy I went with the 250 over the 210.

My dad has a few Moritakis. They are nice knives!
A LynchNW deep carry clip for a Leek. It was quite an adventure as the factory bolt stripped at the head and I had to drill it out.
I recently got 4 removable thumbstuds and 2 bars an inch long. They bolt onto the blade and even with a blade that already has a thumbstud on it, they lots of times place the stud too close to the pivot and also the handle. These attach to the spine and extend inwards just a little bit.
That makes them open the blade more easily with better leverage.

This is coming soon, cheapie at 41$. Good reviews on it.
