I've noticed that the Buck/Strider Solutions available for sale on-line seem to have two different blade grinds.

A couple on-line retailers have pics where their Buck/Strider Solution appears to be a more 'swooping', angular flat grind while some other retailers have Solutions which appear to be a more 'standard' half-grind which looks a bit hollow-ground.

I'm about to purchase one of the Solutions, but before I do, I'd like to know if I have a choice of blade grinds or if there's been an 'evolution' of production for the Buck/Strider 888 Solution model.
(Most of the recent Solutions I've seen have the hollow-ground edge which goes up about 40%-50% of the blade.)

Can see that example here:

Any info/feedback/comments would be helpful.

Thanks,

Hi Stu,
Thank you very much!
(I should have searched for the answer to my question, but never figured that it had already been asked...)

Thanks again,
Mike
 
Also, you can definately find it for cheaper than the price knifecenter has up. Look around a little more. I know Tad is offering it for 121.89, however, I beleive they may be backordered right now. But if you don't mind a little wait...

Hi Stu,
I had completed a bit of searching over the past few days and found TADGear to have the lowest prices.
Just placed an on-line order and the Solution is indeed on back-order for now.

Thanks again,
Mike
