Great knife and high quality steel. Sharp out of the box. Not terrible but not as smooth with the release/folding of the blade. Through continued use hopefully will be easier.
I've had this knife for several months now and have been so impressed by the knife and customer service. It is so smooth and comfortable no matter the task. At one point I pushed my knife's limits and bent the blade. It wasn't to bad, but it was noticeable. I sent it back to them and they fixed it up no charge. I got it back in great shape and time. All other folders feel weird in my had now that I'm so acclimated to this one. Great job.
Solid knife right here. I like all the little details: radiused liner lock, the thumb studs, the new steel……Mark, Curt and their crew turn out some really nice blades!
Love it great knife

A typical production model that is of the quality one might expect from a mass produced knife. A good solid EDC blade for the $$, but nothing to get terribly excited about. My next purchase will be a shop made knife and my expectations will be justifiably MUCH higher.
I ordered this knife and received it blazing fast! This knife is well built for the price! Solid lock up and fits the hand perfect! Could not be happier with this one!
Best EDC hard use knife for the money. This is the second one I have given to a friend. Outstanding quality and durability. Could not recommend more highly.
This knife has the most comfortable handle of any folder I've ever used. This immediately went into my flight suit pocket.
This is my everyday everywhere pocket knife, it's not heavy at all and the handle is really comfortable and I like the quality of this knife.
