It's looks interesting to me...but so different I wonder how it will feel in hand.

Anybody spring for one yet?
 
I picked one up today. It felt really good in hand. Great size. Then I put it down. I couldn't afford to take it with me. Nice knife though.
 
I got the chance to handle one and if you are thinking about the purchase I wouldn't hesitate really long. I really enjoyed the curve in the knife and the action is the same as any other axis lock really. I did not buy it though just because I'm saving for an auto otf such as the Microtech Troodon or Scarab (maybe even an ultratech). But I degress if you're able to definitely get it in your hands before buying.
 
I got to handle one for a few seconds last week. It felt very substantial, but comfortable in the hand. The action was quite smooth, and opening was intuitive - much like other 'opening hole' designs.
 
I got my mits on one yesterday. I found the handle hit my pinky where the handle creates a hump near the lanyard hole. It created a hot spot so I passed on this one. Same reason I don't own a rift. Wish BM would focus more on ergos. Another great blade that I just can't get comfortable with. It's a shame. Great blade otherwise.
 
Looked at one last night at the LGS, its a nice blade and felt solid for sure and pretty comfortable. It's pretty hefty though and it's a fairly large pocket knife, if you want a larger solid quality blade like the Adamas then I'd think this is right there.
 
Just received mine in the mail this afternoon . #385/1000 First Production.

Mine showed up yesterday. I haven't really had a chance to use it yet, but the ergonomics work for me. My hands aren't all that big (size L gloves) and my pinky ends up just above the hump. I can see the hump being a problem for someone with bigger hands. This has the potential to become one of my favorite knives.... until the next new favorite.
