I need a 1" fork that takes cantilever brakes. I am not a weight-weenie. I have been looking around and the Cross Check forks are less than half the price of the competition (like Vicious or Kelly).

I am not trying to start a brand war but what am I getting (or not getting) in a Surly fork vs. the competition?

Cross-Check fork is 1 and 1/8 threadless. Basic, heavy, indestructible.

I owned a Vicious 1" threadless and I loved it. Guy in my office has a Surly Cross fork on his commuter and he likes it. It's pretty beat but it works. I think he's even painted it a couple of times.
