In for one. This will hands down be my ugliest knife, but I haven't bought a knife in a couple weeks so my wife won't have a leg to stand on when she complains another knife got delivered

They're price matching Midway USA: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1016267558

I own a lot of Cold Steel knives, but this isn't one I have any interest in. Besides the steel choice and the really crappy handle design on it, the recursive blades are also a pain to sharpen well. To each their own, but it's not a knife I see a lot of comfortable use for.

If you're going to go big and ridiculous then go with the Espada XL. https://www.coldsteel.com/xl-espada-s35vn/ Woot has sold it at a steal price wise many times in the past. The AD10 is also a fantastic knife by CS worth grabbing when it's on sale: https://www.coldsteel.com/ad-10/

I certainly don't *need* another pocket folder, and I think it's kind of ugly, but went for it anyway because of the deal.
$75 at BladeHQ and $78 at Knife Center.

Oh wow what is this grip and blade profile optimized for? Whatever it is, youre better off with a fixed blade. And the idea of carrying a 9oz folder in your pocket is laughable.
