A must have in your go bag
I just received the Soter blackout in the mail and have been trying it out. I love the locking mechanism on this knife. It is secure. I am not a fan of liner or frame locks. I have seen them fail too many times. I like this new locking mechanism along with lock back mechanisms. Also, the blade is crazy sharp. You all did an amazing job on sharpening this. I would like to have seen the blade with a larger profile, but I believe you have found a great balance on size, material, and weight. I wish it were a bit less expensive, but the build of this knife is too notch. Out of the thousand or so knives I own, this one is the most functional high end knife I own. I will definitely be using it to practice with in my tactical knife training and will certainly carry as my new EDC. Thank you gentlemen for the build of this knife. You have made my other ones practically obsolete.
