Not worth it 08/19/2018
By Michael
Very mediocre for the price.
The handle is clunky and thick and cheap and doesn’t have an open back so it’ll collect dirt and lint. I also bought the 550-1 with lined G10 scales and better steel and THAT KNIFE is most assuredly worth the extra cost.
Especially if you find it in the secondary market. I wouldn’t rebuy this knife though.
I’m going to sell it trade it.
