Boker Reality Based Blade(folder)

What are your thoughts of this knife? Buy or pass? I do intend it as "fighter"/tactical carry.

I have the plain edge version. I would actually have preferred the serrated model but the plain edge was on sale. I love the badass look of this knife. I also like the hefty handle which I'm sure ,as Boker claims, would make the RBB an extremely effective impact weapon in the closed position, especially with the choice of two different skullcrusher options.
Obviously my vote is; buy the knife.

I have the RBB Tanto and use it as a carry knife for concealed carry. By its size and design I think in most places it would be considered a concealed weapon and you may need a permit to carry. If no gun is at hand, this is the knife to have in your pocket if the opportunity arises. I suspect use of it in defense would carry the same consequences as a gun but when you need to defend yourself, survival is what matters most.
It is an awesome weapon and the folder of choice for self defense. I have used the serrated edge for cutting rope but would not use the knife for outdoor activity as its blade is thin and best used for its intended purpose; defense. It is the best folding knife I have ever seen or handled for a personal protection use.
