Cons: Sheath/Scabbard
fantastic knife, not so great nylon sheath.
Loved knife but disliked sheath greatly. At first the nylon seems to be of adaquate quality for its purpose but soon after unsheathing and resheathing a while users will find that the edge (fantastic factory edge, way sharper than benchmades saddle skinner) catches on the plastic liner in the nylon. This catching on the plastic or kydex liner is a key design flaw. I wish Maserin would make molded kydex for it with eyelets. Knife itself has a good feel, solid but not cumbersome, and shaving sharp. For the price tho, probably one of the best s35vn knife you can get in the range.
