Had both. Save some time and get the Chokwe. It is in a whole different league.

Yes that is true, but you will still need to get both JD.
The Chokwe is one of those knives that if you don't get one now while the gettin is easy, you will be kickin yaself later. Freindly warning ;) .

The Chokwe is just about perfect for a knife it's size. I generally prefer smaller knives so I bought a Leafstorm. IMO the design has serious problems. If you try to get a firm grip on it, you WILL cut yourself. Otherwise it's nicely built of nice materials, but it's just a bad design. Of these two, the Chokwe is the only way to go.
