I really support THISHD-7a!
I currently own two - theyre worth the money and the wait.
They're noticeably thinner than cqc-7 models but feel 2x as solid.
Emerson HD7 is most likely my answer to the age-old question of "if you could have only one knife...."
Thinner, lighter and the HD7 was a tad wider blade than the CQC7.
Update: I just heard from EKI... NO HD-7's for awhile.
rolf
blade is the same i think. But the overall width of the HD-7when closed (handles, knife, liners, etc) has a thinner profile than a CQC-7. I'll snap a pic later to compare.
