Awesome knife, I EDC one when not on duty. Send me a PM if you want a good source for that knife at a good price.

Its an awesome way to get a Strider knife for under $200...

My only word of warning is to handle one before you buy. I bought one and ended up selling it due to the large finger groove. I just couldn't feel comfortable with it and I wanted to like it. For me the Strider MFS is a better fit and only costs a few bucks more, for a lot more knife.
YMMV etc.

I've handled one before and I was throughly impressed by it. Cuts superbly, holds an edge for a long time and the sheath was cool. My only beef is that the full length of the blade was not used for the cutting edge - it has a rather large choil as a "safety feature" and that just won't do on a 4.75" blade.
