I recently picked up a used Astro to try out. It's a nice knife, with an interesting hystory. The handle is small, but useable.
My question is what makes the Astro worth so much more than the other models that are close to it. The 14 Attack, 15 Airman, 16 Diver & sp1fighter all have Stainless blades, with fancier handles, yet all cost considerably less than the Astro. The stainless guard is the obvious difference, is it the reason for the higher price? Just wondering what I'm missing.
The Astro seems like a better dive knife than the diver. IMHO.
