I actually prefer the Byrd Raven 2 over both Tenaciuos and Polestar. If you're not into finger choils, go for the Polestar I'd say.

 Any comments from owners of these knives on detent strength?
No issues with mine.
So many knives, so few pockets... :)

I've also had 1 of each and both were good in the detent department. Can also say that they both came apart and went back together with no trouble. Awesome knives.

I kept the Alcyone, sold the Polestar because I liked the Alcyone better

They're still around although my son really likes them. Think he has them more often then not.
