This. K1 handles are no longer used since switching to the handles in K2 and continued in K3 & K4. In addition to the milled holes, I hear they're also less rounded now too.

Doga,, the blade was the same,handle different ,, thats about it as far as the eye can tell. I don't think there were any machining elements that were different in the pivots.

Right on guys, just ordered k2 3 and 4!

Where are the friggin comparison pics?:ross:

[DOAlaboratories]

the KII-IV feature PB washers, which make it a lot smoother and make it so there is virtually no blade play. and the screws on the KIII and KIV have built in loc-tite, i'll try to find a pic over at BFC.
