I was looking at this knife:

What do you think? It retails at 195 dollars, and is one-piece. Would you say this is a good everyday carry, emergency kit, and outdoor sporting and emergency tactical knife that is worth every dollar?

CPM S35VN Stainless Steel

Also, some claim that blade is "Hollow Ground" but it looks like it also has some Saber-Grind like stuff going on. How would you classify it exactly?

It looks exactly like a Benchmade folder blade on a fixed blade.

Looks like a fairly nice slab of S35 and that drop point variant looks very useful.... but there's plenty of competition in that price range and for the money I'd want some nice grips on there.

I think it looks great but the price is too high for me.

I'd rather have a Nyala.

No way I would even think about that one. Looks too much like that big old blocky thing Bench made makes in a folder. The way to test a knife is pick it and squeeze it with your hand as hard as possible for a minute or so and see how many places on your hand are killing you

If you tried to give me this one free as a gift I might take to keep from hurting your feelings but then I would put it in the glove Compart of the car to open mail or throw it in my tackle box because thats about all I think.its good forfor

I'd say it's only priced that high because of the name on the blade. If you're looking for a fixed blade look at tops knives. They have a lot of great designs for a halfway decent price.
