Thanks D.L. ::handshake:: I think it was mainly designed as a "tactical" knife*, ::hmm:: the spear like blade shape lends itself to be a fighting knife some might say.... ::paranoid::

* Note: I add will this addendum to my post, as I did a quick search on that there interweb deal and came up with this:

The Microtech Crosshair is a multi-purpose knife designed for both tactical and survival purposes. It features an aggressive double-edged S30V stainless spear-point plain edge blade and weighs 14.4 ounces. The Crosshair is a variant of the Currahee, originally designed for U.S. Special Forces Boat Team 20.

I only have one knife with a cord wrapped handle, but I have never seriously used it. How does the cord wrap stand up over time has always been a question to me? Is the cord slippery when wet?

The Strider wrap is tight and secure when wet. I have put it through some heavy use, but the factory did a very good job on the wrap. I have had cords start to come loose over time, I find that some epoxy glue applied on the ends will help to prevent that.

Nice Buck Tony! ::tu::

This Buck didn't get much of a welcome by the knife buying public. The Buck 101 was supposed to be a fixed blade version of their iconic 110. As far as I know it was discontinued shortly after its introduction.

Thanks Tony.

I think I know why it didn't catch on. The 101 is exactly the dimensions of a 110 locked open which led most people (I think) to say why carry a 101 when a 110 is more compact, easier to carry, and basically the same knife when locked open. ::shrug:: Pictured below is probably my favorite Buck fixed blade carry, the 192 Vanguard. Great all purpose knife.
