Pohl Force has created one of the most intensive-tactical knife designs ever, with their H3 Alpha Two edition. This is one seriously HUGE folding knife. It's pretty much as big as a fixed blade knife would be. While the materials used aren't the current hot-shots of the knife world (440C blade steel and zytel handle scales), this blade's build quality is over-the-top. Without a doubt, this knife has the thickest blade stock of any folding knife that I've ever owned (or held). Strider may be the reigning king of "tacti-cool", but the Pohl Force H3 Alpha Two actually appears to have even more "tactical muscle" than an SMF. Very, very impressive! This is truly something a bit "different" for the collection!
