It reminds me of my black Leek, except that it has a textured area under the pocket clip. Otherwise, well, it's an awfully fuzzy knife.

Speaking of Leeks, my 1660G10 desperately needs sharpening, but I'm terrible at sharpening, and S30V is reportedly a nightmare to sharpen.

But hey, it made what, almost a year without sharpening, and it still does cut.

I love my Leek and Chive. In fact when I lost my first Chive I immediately went out and got another one, cuz its so nice.
Walmart used to have them for 25 bucks a long time ago, not anymore. In fact if you arent careful you could go as high as 50, which is too much for a high quality but basic pocket knife.

The Chive! Wait, not the same.

My first Leek, a basic black model, was I think $30. My newer knives were significantly higher, I think $60/ea.

Thinking back, I logically should have returned the 556, and just kept the S30V, it is the better knife. But I liked the 556 too much to return it.

Also, I kept the 556 as a backup, because I had two of my black Leeks break on me, the torsion bar gave out. Two totally different knives. Really bugged me, and since then I've always been a little uneasy.

Be sure to consult the neffers first. Shorty knows his blades.

Of course, if you asked all of ATOT, you'll get the same answer he'll give you - Chive or Leek.

My parents will not allow me to have a gun in the house, so I can't have one. I settle for knives, and besides, they're useful at work.
