I'll have to take a look at the Gamer. I have two Benchmade Outbounders (one in 440c, one in D2) which I like for a light, handy neck knife, and a Benchmade Nimravus Cub in 440c that's actually pretty sturdy, despite being very light.

I thought about responding to your Buck post- I have a number of them, as I was quite enamored with them as a young man, but I learned the hard way not to rely on them. Some Bucks just seem to be brittle- I've had chunks come out of an edge just cutting into soft pine. They rest in drawers now.

The weight is surprising on the TAK. Not extreme, but I have a lot of lighter knives with just as much edge, and that probably means I wouldn't carry it hiking much. Even so, I can't seem to help liking it, and the handle shape has a lot to do with that.
