How about em? Reliability, size, sharpness, steel? They look like they are good and are certainly affordable, but I dunno. Please advise.

Reliability - very strong - pry bar strong. Indistructable polymer handle and sheath.
Size - just about perfect for a combat/survival knife. Light and well balanced.
Sharpness - razor sharp, but the steel is a bit soft, so after use sharpen. However they sharpen easily.
Steel - a nickel spring steel.
They look great and are very affordable - $35.
I both collect and use them. The steel is not rust proof. Liberal applications of CLP Breakfree is recommended.
A great knife for the money.

Oh, and I forgot, the handguard also doubles as a bottle opener, beer bottle opener that is. Those Austrians - man you gotta love that!
1) Check www.bladeforums.com We know guns, they know knives. 
2) It's a $35 knife. You get what you pay for. It depends on what you are looking for too. As a spare, car blade, or if you just like it for some reason, maybe. For any sort of primary blade, not for me, thanks.

LOVE MINE! My Dad gave it to me as a BD/Xmas present years ago, when his PD switched to the Glock pistol. (As a bonus , I got his two Pythons , a 4" and a 2 1/2", for 600 for the pair!) It has gutted several deer, a moose, opened many a beer/soda bottle, went to the field with me in the Army, ( I was not issued a bayonet- REMF unit ), been used as a pry bar, and a saw. Always comes thru with flying colors BadDadBrad is right about lubing them, Break Free does the trick Get one, you'll not regret it!

I am sure these are easy enough to buy on the internet, but you don't see them retail much. I have been collecting Glock field knives for about 5 years, and they all have the saw back blade. This is my latest, an olive drab smooth back blade. The saw is really handy and works well, I just think this smooth blade is pretty cool.
