I have a micarta model. I actually bought it from Jess Horn's site several years ago. He's very pleasant to talk to. It's one of the sharpest blades that I own. I like the design and the thin blade. I don't carry it because I don't want to mess up the fine tip. Also, and more importantly, the notch for the front lock is exposed when the knife is closed and tends to catch on things. If you can pick one up cheap, I think it's worth it (it's worth picking even if it's not that cheap).
