I tried, I really tried to resist buying something so soon after my Ganza purchase. Finally broke down and ordered the S5LE. I really didn't like the looks of that odd looking Res-C handle on such a fine blade. But the more I read this ([censored]) forum, and thought about it and looked and looked and looked... Decided that this would be one HECK of a great do just about everything knife that I could wear all day long hiking/backpacking. [censored], this place is going to be deadly.
