For me the only knife that would better the S5LE and even then they would likely "draw" as I would have seperate uses the S5LE could only do ...is an Infi RMD ... to be honest there is so much "wrong" with the SAR5 I would'nt or could'nt bring myself to put them on the same page ...it's like one of the "worst" with one of the "best" for me ...
