I have two Griptilians. I have the 556 Mini Grip with a plain edge satin blade and a full size 551 Grip with a plain edge and black nitrate coating.

I have two Griptillians. My favorite (and one of my main EDC knives) is the 550HG. Fantastic knife. I love the blade shape and 154CM is a great general use steel. I also have a Mini-grip...the 550SBTOD. This is a nice...small version...but I really just picked it up as a collector...not really to use. I dig the OD color with the black blade. Really, for the money the Grips offer serious value to the user. A+ stuff!

I'm actually down to two designs, though I have my eye(s) on another; a limited edition version. We'll have to wait and see if I can actually "score" this little gem. Though I really love the Griptillian design, I'd like to see one with G10 on the handle. Especially if the G10 was shaped like the normal FRN-type handle. Anybody else want to see Benchmade do this?

Congratz Super90Girl! I believe that the large Pink version is also available. I definitely prefer the larger sized Grips over the Minis.
