I have a Mini, which is an excellent knife although hard to find new. The Emerson site regularly has the full sized model in stock. Give it shot, Emerson also has very good warranty service should you need.
While I have only handled an A100 I have several Emersons and all have been great knives. I own a Micro Commander which is simmilarly sized and it is a wondeful little blade. Those little Emersons make such great edcs for some reason. Sometimes when I carry the bigger ones they feek too thick and robust. For some reason I don't get that feeling with the Micro Commander despite it being the same thickness as all Emersons.
There is just something that feels sturdy about carrying such a little tank of a folder. I don't ever feel like I have too little knife on me, except maybe for SD.
I totally disagree that Emersons are not worth the money. There is no other knife on the market that is able to emulate or compare to the feeling that Emersons give you in hand. There is a rugged quality to the knife that I have not found in any other company's products. Some people say the F&F is not up to snuff, and to be honest I have gotten one that had bad lock slip I was very unhappy with. All the others I had have been excellent knives and have a quality that I just don't feel in other offerings. There is just something about them. They feel alive and tough in my hand.
