Up front the pioneer X doesn't really get anything wrong and it a solid win for anyone that wants a knife or general tool. I'd consider it and the compact to be the best medium size SAKs out there but which do I prefer? The compact with its slicier blade and greater number of functions wins the day if I had to choose between the two. But when I want better driving capability or extra sex appeal the pioneer x wins out. On a side note, I still consider the standard pioneer to be the best "work" SAK (the electrician may be better but I haven't tried it).
