I'm always in the mood for a new knife and a recent trip to Asheville gave me the chance to examine the SARK up close.
What I really like about it is the grip. The finger choil is deep, almost to the point of being a crossguard hilt, and that makes me more confident in handling the weapon.
The blade looks good and I'm sure would function well as a slash and stab defensive tool. It's not the best stabber, but a bottle-opener movement will get the job done.
The liner lock isn't the best I've seen. I tend to not like them after working with BM's axis lock. But, I could go that route.
Price tag? $140 + tax. Is that good? I could pick it up on the next trip...
I just don't know. I really like my BM Griptillian for size and how it fits the hand. The plastic handle doesn't abrade my pockets and the ambidextrous nature is a big plus.
Should I just buy another grippie and be happy?
