>>1220548I´ve had my A1 for over six months now, it was my first Fällkniven ever and just like you, i wasn´t sure at first and man, i went through tons and tons of reviews and videos about it and i eventually pulled the trigger. I can´t say enough good things about it.. You truly have to have one to experience it. Obviously you´ll find different opinions about it, specially about the zytel sheath (it´s not the prettiest but it is care free). The A1 is a no bullshit knife. The convex grind is just amazing. One of the things i can tell you is that you won´t regret buying it.
