I have handled one at work-It's owned and used by a nurse who is also a licensed emergency ambulance crewman. It is solid, very fast, well made- I'm sure it's made in the US because the owner is very much in favor of US made knives.

I've got a couple Blurs, Boas & an Avalanche. They are sharp, fairly
well made, inexpensive, good factory support if they break and
as a bonus the're legal ( here). The Boas & Blurs are kinda slow,
but the Avalanche comes open with a nice pop. Never tried the
Blackout or the Whirlwind, but I'd be interested in hearing how
they perform.

Good, cause outside a few foreign German knives, or a Mikov - I don't want any Far East Junk. I am on the warpath against outsourced, cheapie knives. The Czecs and Germans are one thing. The others can forget it. BokerAK74 :roll:

Have been carry the Chive on a keychain for a year or so, still going strong. Also have the rainbow Leek, but this one is too purty to carry. :D

I have a Blackout with the serrated blade I've had for a few years . It's fast,solid and very dependable. These would look great with some horn scales.

I love my Ken Onion/ Kershaw assisted opening knives! They are rock solid knives!! They are also wicked sharp out of the box. The Kershaw Bump is one of my favorites!!

BokerAK74, I can't help but point out that your user name is the same name of a knife (of decent quality I might add) that is ironically made in TAIWAN.
