I like the Spydie hole and the rubber inserts on handle and clip for retention.
I like the BM hole and the grippy handle and slightly extra length.
Uses would be utility, with ever-present potential for defense if needed.
I think aus8 and 440c is about a wash.(am I wrong?)
Your opinions are appreciated.
 
Well seeing that I have a Pe FRN Pro Grip for sale over on Knifeforums I can't really say.I do like the thinner profile of the Pro Grip better.
 
I'm a big fan of the Griptillian but I would recommend the Progrip because it is about to be discontinued in its present configuration. In all honesty, these are fairly cheap knives, pinch a few pennies and get both!:D
 
The 550 Griptilian!

This is'nt really a fair contest because the FRN Pro-Grip is unlined FRN and the 550 has the wonderful Axis-Lock.

Now if it were the SS Pro-Grip vs the 550...
That would be a tough choice.

Good luck,
Allen.
 
I think that 440C might be the slightly better choice here but you should notice that much of a difference.
