I bought one of these recently...

Solid working knife adam. Congrats!
There is something to be said for those. Good users!
I've sold off a large number of the high end ones (Striders and Chris Reeve, mainly) - the trip to Oregon and now the transmission in the Expedition, money is better spent elsewhere than steel sitting in a safe collecting dust.
My most recent purchase was an Emerson SOCFK tanto from a friend. I love tantos... My Emersons are some that I will not sell any time soon. :)
Use the heck out of it!
A few years back I took a visiting lady to fish one of our trout streams near Cape Town. I found it quite fascinating that she travelled the world alone. But I think she knew how to take care of herself. She gave me a knife as a gift and when I saw it I got the picture. :shock:
The Bear Claws are awesome – I bought another for my wife.

G, I am still in the process of finishing my paragliding kit. I have a lot of interests but very few funds after the family is taken care of but this will be the knife I carry with me. The bottom one, rounded tip and serated for cutting myself away in the event I am being dragged and or what ever reason I want to be cut from my wing.
They are relatively inexpensive.
Like minds.
The CRKT Bear Claw is a good cost effective claw - it was inspired by Fred Perrin's designs. Perrin is a french tool designer who is in to street survival... A little about him here: http://www.donrearic.com/perrin.html
The basic La Griffe is currently produced by Emerson Knives - I have worn one for a couple years now. It's a great utility blade in addition to the SD function, and is concealable in many ways. (more here: http://www.donrearic.com/emersonlagriffe.html)
Adam, for your kite use, they used to produce a "whitewater" version that was serrated and with a blunt tip. The CRKT version will undoubtedly be more fiscally responsible. :)
This is what mine looked like new... (looks better, or worse depending on your perspective, now... :))

It will be a good companion Addy. :bigthumb:Quote:

That's pretty cool...I like its basic look. My only reservation would be the seemingly uncomfortable grip? The BC has a swelled butt which fits quite comfortable in the palm of your hand.Quote:
