Just recieved two Discoveries (like my knives in pairs)from Danny @ 888 knives r us, he gave me a superb deal. Let's just say, far less then 80.00 bucks a pop, like some other folks are asking!!! Anyway... the Discovery, despite it's homeland of Taiwan (CRKT's are made there)is a fairly decent knife for the money (about 60.00), blade is razor sharp, construction seems solid, machining is average for a knife of this price, the assisted opening is as fast or faster the the Kirshaws, Tanto blade design was a plus. Only critique I can offer, which can be a major problem, is the blade *lock up*. Seems a little on the Mickey Mouse side. Since I have no plans to charge into battle with this knife, I'll never know just how well it holds. I prefer either the inner/liner type lock or back lock like Boker and Buck. If you can get one cheap, their kind of cool.
