neither are particularly great. table top folding are great on trails or parks, much better than both and weigh a considerable amount less. spend some money and you get good tyres

Personally I am a huge fan of Holy Rollers. I have been using them for years and years without any issues. On my 26 x 2.4 I run them at 50psi with regular tubes. As long as you use them for what they're intended for they will work great. That intended use being hardpack and street use.

the Holy Rollers are about 100g heavier so if you are focused on weight I'd say Krads I use K-Rads and haven't had any issues with them.

krads look, roll and grip nice.
but the sidewalls blow out very easy Mad

i loved my krads until they kept blowing up and puncturing. plus they always slipped out in the wet. holy rollers as well worth the extra wieght

I would say Holy Rollers, they have much better grip. K-rads so far have been mediocre. I haven't any troubles with punctures but I have slid out on surfaces that the tires really shouldn't have had any troubles with mainly when its raining.

Holy Rollers > K-Rads imo

I've had both- i like the holy rollers better- they are better for dirt- if the soil is wet they do not slip out nearly as much as the krads

edit: actually- I have both.... just on different bikes.

i didnt like the fact that holy rollers the sidewalls ripped out, easily, and punctured really easy, i personally am rocking krads now, they roll alot faster a lil lighter, i dont mind them so far, but i may try swalbes or dmr motos, they seem pretty good also, its all personal opinion

well i haven't used holy rollers but i ran a set of 24x2.3 k rads front n back and they were good if it was dry but in the wet i would loose traction just from pedaling! i wouldn't recommend them, there are better tires out there.

i have krads right now, ive only slipped out on them once, and that was when i was going around a turn and hit a wet spot. they handle great for me at the DJs, on street, and just cruising. never had a problem with punctures, and ive ridden them through thick brush and weeds. theyre great tires.
