Banter 2 Pocket Knife for EDC, Crossbar Lock Folding Knife with 2.87" CPM S35VN Steel Blade Aluminum Handle, Designed by Ben Petersen WE23075-2(Purple)

Excellent knife . Nice grip on the micarta , ergonomics are very good even for someone like me with “bigger” hands . (I’m 6’ 2” it fits comfortably) blade is a thicker blade imo so good for those times you’ve got to “abuse” the knife be good work knife . Razor sharp out of the box .lastly that crossbar lock is the chefs kiss . Excellent work with the lock very very sturdy , super easy one handed open and close . Also is ambidextrous open so that’s a plus !

Love the purple color. Love the texturing on the aluminum. The crossbar lock works great. No lock stick. Hair shaving sharp out of the box. Fair price for nice materials. Big fan. I used to have the original liner lock with G10 scales and it was nice but this one is better. It’s a keeper. Ben Peterson (the designer) does it again.

The media could not be loaded. Great fit and finish, good action and feel in the hand.

This knife seems like it should be the less refined early version. The original Banter is the better knife. Banter 2 blade got shorter and slightly reshaped, handle got longer and rounder, opening and closing feels mushy. The original will go back in pocket. The v2 got relegated to drawer as spare tool.

Very nice ergonomic feel in had .very sharp and fidgety too. Nice upgrade to a classic knife design.

WE got it right with this one 100 out of a 100! Super smooth, sharper than sharp. No disappointment with this one.

This knife is really fun. I never got into the original banter or the mini version. This one feels premium. I also love the details. If you like folders, then you need this knife.
