Knights or Threats?

Yo, I've rocked a pair of old school 1080's forever and I am looking to upgrade. I've found both the Salomon Kinght and Threat online for the same price and I need a  recommendation. I tend to do more big mountain but I do find myself in the park on and off, so I need a ski that can do both.

Any suggestions?

Threats delaminate easily... Knights

i had a pair of threats and the top front edge just blew out after hitting jumps. not rails. the warranty was really fast though. i havent heard anything about the knights though. i didnt even know they existed till about three days ago.

heres my input:
my first twin was the threats. They broke in about 7 days, full delam. I've never skied the knights, but chances are if they are similiar skis they will be poorly constructed as well. You can get a much better park ski for that price. good luck
