Some nifty things coming out of the Italian knife manufacturers in terms of affordability, materials, and quality.

I had picked up two of the Terzuola-designed TPFs made by Fox in MagnaCut (finally hardened to RC61-63 - many of the Italian makers have run M390 soft), but then I saw this nifty thing - the MKM "Handy."

MagnaCut, black Suretouch (or the usual wood, micarta, carbon fiber, and G10 options for Fox/Viper/LionSteel fixed blades), tapered tang, what looks like a well thought out sheath, and all under $175 new? Anyone got one yet? I've really liked what I've seen out of the MKM makers for smaller fixed blades.

That’s pretty sweet. The sheath not so much.
One nice thing is that MKM always does a kydex sheath kit with several attachment options for like $30 as well, which would still put you under $200 for this one. I'm tapped out, but it's definitely intriguing to me. I have a thing for small fixed blades.
 
I saw these, really like the knife overall and not a bad price either, the sheath isn't a deal-breaker for me.

One thing I could do without is the bill boarding on the blade.
I have a Viper Hug bronze slip-joint and really like it, would like it more without the text on the blade...
