Anyone own a Case Slimlock and thoughts

[Mathew J]

Wondering if anyone owns one of these and if they had any feedback on them? also pictures appreicated, I am specifically looking at this one:

I used to own the Bermuda Green one. Beautiful to look at. Felt good in hand. Sharpened it up nicely and carried it for a brief time. I didn't like how easily the blade opened, especially when not carried in the pouch. I only can compare this to a Mnandi that has a tiny little "catch" if you will, before it opens smoothly. The slimlock didn't have this "catch".

I do like the Slimlocks and if I were to get another, I'd definitely carry it in the little pouch that it comes with. Nice choice BTW

I bought one in red bone when it first came out a few years back. It's a lot of money for what it is. They'll be no value awards for it.

It's competent, build quality is ok and like most Cases needs reprofiling out of the box. I love BG42 but find this to be on the soft side, though it is easy to sharpen.

It's a nice looking gentleman's folder with a great blade steel. Near custom levels it isn't but if you like Case knives it likely won't disappoint.

Truthfully it wasn't one of my favorites but the companies history is impressive and the looks of that particular knife were inline with what I was going for

Thanks
