Mediator

[d-wade]

I’ve been thinking about picking up a Mediator but haven’t found many reviews or anything on one. I know it’s be called an auto 940, but I’m wanting real world, real used options on it. Has anyone got one and if so what are your impressions of it?

Yo!
I've never had 940 so it's hard for me to compare...

My first impressions:
Great medium-sized knife.
Fantastic G10 work.
Perfectly made.
Great blade shape.
Super steel.
Easy to carry.

For me it should be a perfect edc knife.
That's all for now

There is an auto 940 now. The mediator has a different (if same class) blade shape than the osborne, it's tip is somewhere between reverse tanto and drop point IMO. Weight is a bit differnt, if that's your thing, the steel is different, though you can get a 940 auto with SV90 or M390 or some such, don't remember. The 940 - to me - is a classy business EDC that is so not threatening (snowflakes unite y'all!) and does all I ask of it. I don't take it camping. The mediator I might.

I'll let ya know if I get one then go camping (glamping) with it and find any shortcomings or strengths.

Found one! Born on date less than 90 days ago. Nicely centered, fit and finish is perfect, snaps open with authority! Looks good too. First thing I notice is the weight is towards the blade, as opposed to pretty even on the 940 with the same scales.

I'll chime in again after some use.
