has anybody seen and looked at the Emerson knife designs made by Kershaw? your impressions?

I have a couple of Kershaw knives and they are well made.

I had an Emerson CQC-7 made by Benchmade and it was very well made. you had to look real close to see the difference between it and my "real" Emerson CQC-7. I used to keep the Benchmade in the console of my car but it all of a sudden ain't there anymore and I have no idea where it is at.

the only thing I didn't like about the Benchmade was the clip was for tip down carry. the Emerson could be carried either way. I just don't need the expense of another Emerson or Benchmade just to keep in the console.
