Just a little diagram I made tonight showing the differance in blade shape on the Navigator and the Meerkat.

The Navigator is a great little knife but one thing that always bugged the hell out of me was that little notch behind the edge of the blade.
When ever I would cut up cardboard boxs I would always seem to use the back part of the blade and that notch would catch the cardboard stopping the blade from cutting.
As you can see in the diagram the Meerkat does not have that notch in it and it works much better for me that way.
I thought the shape of the blades were the same befor I did the overlay of the two.
