I've only got a couple AO knives, but my favorite is probably the Kershaw Leek. Its not a lock-back, but it's got what appears to be a very strong frame lock. Its available in different edges and different steels, but my favorite is the plain edge, "composite" blade (CPM-D2 edge):Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with me. Mighty kind! Still leaning AO though.
I've never handled the Kershaw Blur though, so I'm not sure if the locking mechanism is actually stronger or not. Just another idea to consider.
