Made a video discussing some of the differences between these three great knives.
 
This was perfect. I was looking into getting a ganzo but the price did make me hesitant on its quality. Now I have to get one!

Ganzos are quite good for the money - I have 2 of them and besides the thick grinds everything else is great.
 
I also have two Ganzos, Very pleased with both quality and phenomenally low price.
 
Problem with Ganzo is, besides the thick grinds (in some models), the heavy weight due to the full steel liners. Someone handy with a carbide burr in a die grinder (or a CNC mill, much better) could skeletonize them removing the not so needed metal... and see if they can actually save a few grams. I was about to pull the trigger on a G717 2nd Generation (solid stop pin) but I am hesitant due to the weight. One of the reasons I like my spyderco Military so much is because despite being big, it is light in the pocket. so since I don't abuse my knives, light is right in my book.

I own a RAT2 and Tenacious. Out of those two, I go with the RAT2. Maybe if I had a RAT1 I would choose the Tenacious instead... Not sure.
