My SnG, which has impeccable function, fit and finish - for a using tool, not pocket jewelry. The rumors of "QA" (?) do seem to circulate among non-owners a lot, or the few who thought they were getting $400 worth of "pretty." By all accounts from owners like me, if I can borrow such an overqualified phrase, the SnG is perfect. Just ask us, we're the ones who really know.
I bought mine for the features, including a flatground droppoint blade, and the excellent handling when wearing gloves - something lots of us do, and lots of us think twice about after fumbling with a slick handled, mini buttoned POS in cold weather or harsh work. Funny how so many nice knives we put money into are really bare hand users and next to worthless with gloves on when it has to be done that way.
I'd like to hear more on the Buck Mayo, I've been looking for a dress knife for weekends or the office - and it meets the minimums for me - S30V titianium framelock. It's not badly priced, either!
