ONE LINE REVIEW:
Still a fantastic knife because the Taggedout is a great platform...but unless you're a Benchmade collector, really love Magnacut, or are totally price-insensitive, this upgraded model is hard to recommend over the base model. If you want a fancy Taggedout, consider getting a base model and upgrading with aftermarket scales instead.
