New to this.. which AO knife?

[p_mcmanis]

Take a look at the Benchmade 585, 906, 907 and the ZT 350. They are all in you price range. The 350 may be a tad big for you, but it is an awsome knife!

I say go with the 907 spearpoint mini stryker.

 

[5.56]

OD-1 or Leek G10/S30v

Both excellent choices
