I picked one up this past summer due to the good bang-for-the-buck reputation that these knives have, but I soon sold it. I found the blade too clunky for doing fine work, and not nearly as nice as my other low-cost knives (Kabar and Becker) for chopping work. The sheath had little to no security, so if I had intended to carry this knife I would have had to make or buy another. I soon sold mine off.
