I have one and I like it a lot. Very sharp, strong blade. The Nitrous system is really cool too, check benchmade's website, they do a good job explaining it. I did a comparison on youtube between the Stryker and a SOG Trident. Here's the link to my channel.

I have a few knife reviews on there, so check em out. Hope they are helpful.

Very good review Coletrane 811. Thanks!, Joe
Guess I'll be the lone voice of dissension
I played with one of these at a local B&M and was not very impressed. It may be that I favor larger and heavier knives though. What I remember is that it felt sorta flimsy to me, and the liner lock itself was very thin. I have a Strider AR and the liner lock on it measures out at .100" thick. It also exhibited some bladeplay back and forth, but that could probably be taken care of with a slight tightening of the pivot. Please remember, take my observations with a grain of salt, as I mentioned earlier, my type of folder is the larger and heavier built type. But you did ask for observations and I have responded.
