For me, this knife was only second choice. I actually wanted a Sypderco Urban that is but now no longer produced. Meanwhile, I got it to my heart. The Squeak is a slip joint knife, extremely light and just looks cuddly. It can be opened with one hand, but is still Paragraph 42a compliant. My daily, small cutting tasks it is fully grown. The used Böhler steel is very cutting properties, corrosion resistance and good resharpen. The blade is manufactured in the Italian town of Maniago knife and is characterized by a good quality. I have the simple glass fiber reinforced plastic handles since been replaced by wooden handles and the blade provided with a stonewash finish. This conversion, the simple design of the knife without boards came to good.
