Any feedback on Puma Pathfinder??

I dont have one to take any pictures, but I did get a stock photo from a website that had it for sale. I guess its a fairly new offering from Puma. I just wanted to know if anyone had handled one of these knives and what they thought about it.

 
It's a lot lower priced than many of Puma's knives, but they're still using 440c steel. I was just wondering how it felt in your hand and how the the fit and finish was for the stag. I don't know anywhere to see it in person. You can get it new, online, for $59.97. Maybe someone has one and will chime in.
 
I think it was once called the Boy Scout. I am sure it is made from 420ss.
 
Puma states it's made of 440c. I was searching on ebay and did see someone selling an old Puma Scout, it looks the same as the Pathfinder. But I'd still like to hear from someone that has had the knife in their hand. If not I may have to get one and post my own review! I was holding off since if i hear it's a good knife, I'll get my son one too.

I am a big puma fan. I could be wrong about it being made of 420.
Have never seen a puma that could not "pop hairs" so to speak.

They may not be built as well as they were 20-30 years ago , But they are still a great Knife .
