Lean is a good word for it, all right. Here's a pic of an HG55 CG compared to a Buck Night Strider (courtesy of Rainwalker):

The Night Strider is a buildout of a Buck Nighthawk 650 and a Strider 890. Buck had some handles left over when they ended their relationship with Strider and they made 450 Night Striders to use them up. The specs for the Night Strider blade are the same as for the standard Nighthawk:

Alloy: 420HC
Blade Length: 6.5 inches
Blade Thickness: .250 inches
Blade Width: 1.25"
Country of Manufacture: U.S.A.

Fighters are fairly impractical for non-military use. They certainly wouldn't be my first choice for taking along on camping trips. But I really love their aesthetics. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Congrats to everyone who scored an HG55. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Saw this earlier and realized something was missing, where are the serrations on the CG? Are they so subtle they didn't show up in this picture???
