Hey Taz,
I think a Pioneer would probably serve you best.I am looking forward to receiving my Pioneer 1 that I just bought from another member here.I have never handled a Genesis,but have heard many good things about Rekat knives.Things like "the Pioneer is built like a tank",that speaks for itself.I have also heard some good things about EDI too,but I just think it will be hard to beat the Rolling-Lock.Thats my opinion anyways,hope this helps with your decision!
See Ya!

What do you mean by utility?
Ultimate lock strength? Go for a REKAT.
Quite possibly the strongest folding knife lock.
Looking for Exceptional Cutting ability and ease of carrying? Go with the Genesis.
The Genesis has a .115" blade and it is flat ground very thin. It even out-cuts the recurve BM AXIS blade because it is .010 thinner at the sharpening bevel.
EDI is using a sophisticated heat treat as well as a deep cryo temper to enhance the toughness of ATS34 at such a thin edge.
Will Fennell of EDI reports they havent had any sent back for chipping or other problems that could occur with a thin blade.
Personally, I would like a Genesis with a Rolling Lock. Will, Bob are you two listening?
