Well, this isn't quite a review request, but I don't know of a better place to post it.
I have seen several more or less reviews of the 705 and generally like what I've been reading. Most of you who have it seem to like what you're carrying. I don't have anyplace around here where I can conveniently fondle one to see what it's like, but in general, it looks like the sort of thing I would like. My most common daily carry these days has been a small Ascent (BM820), which is about the same size (overall and blade).
OTOH, it really looks like it would stick way the heck out of your pocket. The Ascent sticks up only about 1cm (less than .5 in). The pictures I've seen of the 705 make it look like about 1/3 of its handle length sticks out of your pocket. Can that be right? I'd really appreciate it if someone who has one would measure how far it sticks up.

If the odds are a million to one against something occurring, chances are 50-50 it will.
