Agree with Silverdagger. I also have many knives...I'm a professional and go to work in a suit everyday. Always carry at least a small knife with me every day I am in a suit...usually a kershaw chive. Also have many knives for those bluejean days...and until I got the Mini grip carried the Kershaw Scallion or Leek....but after I got the Mini grip it has been my favorite knife. It was alot sharper out of the box than the kershaws which were fairly sharp. However, simply dragging the blade across my thumb with the the mini grip cut me. Didn't expect it as no other out of the knife box has ever done that.
Though the kershaws are AOs, the mini grip opens just as fast with a flick of the wrist and a little push on the thumbstud. Am getting another one, the gray one, with thumb stud and plain edge that I found online. This website said they had it....and have found no other gray plain edges with a thumbstud.
I thought the purple and green (not olive drab) mini grips were out of production, but there is a website (geekshop.com) that has them listed on their site.
This knife is awesome for the average person. As another person wrote, if you are a heavy knife user then kick it up to a full size griptilian. If not, the mini grip will do whatever you need.
