I got to handle a Juno last night at the knife counter and found myself really likeing it :thumbup: It has a blade that is nearly 3", 420HC, solid lock, comfortable in the hand, and made in Idaho (it had the 2007 arrow stamp). All for $15. You'll be hard pressed to find another US made knife in that price range.

I walked away with a different knife, but I put the Juno on my "to-buy" list.
 
I haven't seen it yet, but 15 bucks and American made??!! How can you go wrong?:thumbup:
 
I have one but don't use it, thought it would grow on me but the lack of a clip leaves it in the bottom of my pocket. Other than that, the one hand opening is easy, the closing can almost be done one handed and grip is definatly friendly on the hands.

I like the knife, but have never seen one that wasn't serrated, which I hate.

Did they even make a PE one????
 
I don't know. The one I looked at was serrated. The Juno is on the website but not in the 2007 catalog. Is it being phased out of production and replaced by the Bantom series? The Bantom BBW is similar but comes with a pocket clip. Unfortunately the Bantoms are not US made.
