I like the Tekansfor the way they open up and the solid stainless tip and bodythat I think is alot better then the ones with aluminum style with a steel insert. The blades slide back as they enter. I never liked the rear hinge style, they just did not appeal to me. Plus I can use them repeatedly in a target and not damage them, most rear hinge style will not hold up to repeated target practice. They are simple with no little screws on them at all. The tip is solid stainless and has a 1/2 cut on it. The other thing I like about it is you can sharpen it real easy, rather then have blades sit in you quiver wandering if they are starting to get dull. I can put a quick edge on it when in doubt and clean shave arm hair with it. This year they changed them just a tad, at least they look black, some reviews saidpeople dislikes the shiny Stainless steel, so they must have decided to paint them. Took two deer with them this season, both pass through with rib hits. Fully open slices going in and out on both.
