Large fixed knives are my first love so it is easy to appreciate this. In twenty years, it would be on someone's gone forever list and folks will see it in a different light and go searching in the secondary market.

I have carried it into the field a couple of times in place of one of my fixed blades, and I have to say it’s growing on me. I like that I can slip it into my pocket, which I can’t do with a belt knife. I also like the swing guard - I like a guard on my fixed blades because I’m wary about my hand slipping up onto the blade, and I use this one exactly like a fixed blade. My only complaint is that the handle is long and a bit slick for my taste. But I do enjoy having a belt knife that I can carry in my pocket instead of having it hanging off my belt, especially when I need to stop at the grocery store or something. I guess it really boils down to intended use.

The fuller on the blade looks like the same fuller they have on some fixed bladed RR. I have tried a smaller swing guard knife and personally, I didn’t care for it. It was sharp and you are forced into a grip that’s more a fencing grip than an edc type grip. If you like big knives, this is perfect!

I agree with you with the swing guard being part of the blade. It's connected to the blade and only sits along side the handle in the closed and open position.

The Reserve RRs are well built. I’m thinking some of the BIG name mfgs might take second notice. If it were a BIG name knife it would cost several hundred. Lots of folks fear CHINA blades… the minute they see CHINA it’s a deal breaker. If this SWISH we’re mfg here the US… it would be crazy expensive. Fit and finish is actually better than some of big names out there. I like this one… SMkWs $74.99….put one back… like someone mentioned earlier… once their gone- their gone.
