on the scale of 1-10. This knife gets an 8. the handle is too thin. (it's not much bigger than the smaller F1- comparing both side by side). The handle material is good. No complaints. The clip point gets really thin towards the tip. I haven't heard of any failures but I would NOT put a lot of force on it. The overall shape is more tactical than it is for the outdoors. The clip point is just too pointy for me. The bigger brother A1 is the full size version and probably a better choice for just not much more money.

The S1 has a lot to offer in a field knife. The convex grind is amazing, and the stainless steel VG-10 is going to do well in humid environments. The handle is a little thin and short, but will fit most hands. The zytel sheath is garbage, go with the leather.

I was expecting a lot from this blade, but I was very underwhelmed when I got it out in the woods. The problem is in the handle and sheath options. I would pass and go with the S1 model.

Awesome knife! The convex grind is very conducive to fine wood work. Fit and finish is excellent. The handle is a little bit thin, which doesn't bother me personally. It was designed as a high carbon stainless blade that's meant to be used in colder and wet climates. I think they made the handle thinner for a more comfortable grip with gloves. I took this over the F1 because of the clip point and also a little extra length that doesnt hinder finer tasks.
