I am interested in a tool for general knife stuff as well as backup (backup-backup?), and I am trying to live frugally so I can buy my wife a G19 for her birthday. I have been told that a knife with a finger-hole is a great idea so it doesn't twist or get dropped.
The HAK are cute, and probably extremely effective, but there are several well-developed threads already in the archives(for example,
Hide Away Knife- New Addition). I would like one, but the price kind of dampens my ardor.
What do you folks think of these styles? For $22-27, might one if these be a good choice?

Note: I have huge hands and no training (yet), if that makes a difference.
