Pros: Handle Material, Overall Quality, Blade Material, Materials, Finish
Cons: Weight, Sheath/Scabbard

Ok, needs to be thicker

I use this for cutting line on a survay crew in Maryland. Lots of vegetation. Grass, greenbrier, trees up to about 5" For many task it was ok, but at some point it was bent. After this blade i have tried several others and really think 3mm is a better thickness for a 18" blade. Is ti better than a Colman, or a Gerber yes definitely! But is it better than a OKC no. Also this Sheath sucks, using those dumb multi snap system and the odd angle to get it in and out, not handy for a work blade
