I had previously bought the Predator ABS 241-NH-1/N White and was delighted with the quality and the smooth operation of the lever lock. The only thing I did not like was the blade steel - 420. Very corrosion-resistant, polishing very well, and very soft. Something just right for a movie prop. And probably because of this poor resistance to dulling, the blade was factory sharpened to a 25-degree inclusive angle, suitable for survival use - for striking rather than cutting. I reground the edge to a 16-degree angle, for filleting, and only then did it start cutting a sheet of paper, but I was still not fully satisfied. So I splurged and bought this version, twice as expensive, with good steel. And indeed. The knife arrived sharpened according to the steel manufacturer's standard to a 17-degree angle, it cuts not only a sheet of paper, and on top of that it does not go dull after several uses. But that is not the only difference. The blade, seemingly identical, differs significantly from the original - the cutting edge is longer, and the opposite edge, which is not visible in the factory photo, has a special widened profile for convenient closing. I am posting my own photos below. In summary, this version of the Predator is far superior in practical use to the basic version, but you cannot see that at first glance because it is black. The basic version, with beautifully polished working parts (blade, springs), visually outshines the one I bought, but it is more suitable for a display case than for hard work
