Whats the consensous on this knife? I'm thinking about picking one up, loos like a solid blade. Does anyone have one? What do you think?
 
Don't have one yet, but based on the Benchmade testing video it's pretty stout for sure.
 
I like mine. At first blush the handle has kind of an odd shape but it seemed to melt in to my hand after a little bit. Biggest complaint from me is that they made a danger sheath, which is great, but then didn't include any way to dangle it, and the belt loop that is there is laughably useless.

My only other complaint is that the price is a little on the high side compared to other bushcraft style knives, but then this is S30V and not 01 or 1095, and that makes a big difference in the price.
