I just wondered if anyone has carried a Parallex 316 and how you like it. If someone can post a pic of the pocket clip I'd appreciate it.

Well, nobody replied..so I bought 1. It will replace a knife I lost 2 weks ago, while jumping and diving off the cliffs in a quarry. So, if I loose it, I'm out $16. I'm impressed with a china Buck right out of the box. The blade is evenly ground, edge is uniform and even..and sharp. Closed, the blade is centered. One-hand opening is not a problem, and the frame lock engages with a "click", and is centered on the blade. Ambidextrous thumb stud, but the pocket clip is not. These are not made for lefties. Tip down carry, and the pocket clip slips over the seam of a Levi pocket, but hangs where the clip attaches to the knife frame. I've bought a lot worse, for a lot more!
