Am eyeing a knife around the $100 price range but idk whether to go with the aus 10 shark cub or the ad 20.5. Seems $90 is a bit steep for aus 10 but the $150 for 20cv also pricey. With the AD 20.5, I feel it won't be that compact anymore and that the handle isn't as ergonomic.

They're both basically the same knife but in different sizes. The 20.5 is available in a variety of steels including D2 and AUS10 if you would like to make your comparison more apples-to-apples.

I like the size of the Cub better. FWIW, the Shark Cub is $72 on sale direct from Demko at the moment.

From some yt reviews they said the shark cub handle is more comfortable. I think the only thing preventing me is the steep price. With taxes and shipping and everything it will be around $90 total. For fricking aus 10 steel
