This knife exudes quality: solid feel, materials, grip texturing w/ accent stripes, polishing - it adds up and really makes an impression. D2, G10, and bearings are nice features, esp. at this price! Opens and locks with satisfying snap - very smooth, solid lockup. Arrived sharp, performs solidly. I don't use as a pry bar, or for anything beyond what a pocket knife is for, but it slices like a laser beam. Great blade shape and profile, cutting edge runs almost the full length of the blade - lots of control and power when cutting that close to the grip. Finger groove is near the end of the grip, allows me a four-fingered grip on a knife with a closed length that usually wouldn't allow that (I wear XL gloves). Grip shape is very neutral, allows for wide array of grips, always feels comfortable, secure, useable. Jimping not too sharp, but has nice grip. Prefer deep pocket clips, but this one hasn't bothered me yet. Not the lightest or slimmest, I do feel it in my pocket, but not chunky - still access phone in same pocket. Thumb stud a bit sharp and harder to use left handed - less clearance on that side. Nice oval lanyard hole.
