I recently got one, and the knife itself is perfect.

Good grippy G-10
Good clip
Double Liners
Very Solid liner-lock, I don't see a way to accidently unlock it.
No blade play what-so-ever
Nice modified droppoint
Great flat-grind VG-10 razor sharp
Smart choil placement
Good thumb grooves for grip
Good thumb stud openers

But, too small. I don't have big hands, but if it were just a tad bigger, the dimensions would work better. The current choil is just a tad too small.

Thanks Ted.
Is the cutting edge 3" or is it 3" from the handle to the tip (ie including the choil)?

Sizewise...as far as feel...any comparisons to other knives?

 

[TedV]

From the start of the edge near the choil, to the tip is 2 3/4"

Feel: rock solid. One of the best small liner-locks. Feel's as solid as a Para-Military, Lil Temperance. But, those Spydies have a better grip due to their larger handles (higher and longer).
The G-10 is similair to the G-10 used in Spyderco's Para-Military.

Here are some pics
