this knife looks underrated, ive always wondered about his one. looks like a winner, what do you guys think ?

It seems like a decent knife. I don't personally like the blade shape. I think the price is a bit high for 420C steel. I would have their rat-1 or rat-2 for 1/4 the price. I would be interested in handling one. The button lock appears stronger than I would have guessed.
 
I don't own one, but I also thought this was a hidden gem when they first came out. It seems like a very solid design with a useful blade shape at a reasonable price. I love that unusual full-flat-grind, arrowhead blade style. Plus it's made in the U.S.A., which is always a selling point for me.

I may pick one up yet before they disappear from the scene. Does anyone own one and care to comment on it?

I owned one for a while. The button lock was strong, good lock up. I liked the blade shape, like a wider PM2 blade. If they would upgrade the steel and offer the option of tip up carry I would buy another.
 
i love the design of the knife, the shape of the blade is what draws me the most, and also the button lock. ive ordered one, and it should be here sometime next week, ill let you guys know how it is and ill take a couple pics.

the steel on this is 440C, which isnt a bad steel if its done right. i will be carrying this for self defense and light tasks, so super steel is not important to me.
 
I would have bought one long ago if it was tip up carry. I look at them all the time to see if it has changed :mad:
 
I've looked at this one several times just because it is something different. Price seems a little high for materials though.
