Considering getting this knife. Would like some overall opinions and also wanted to know if the framelock is strong. Thanks in advance.
 
I think it's very good at the low price it sells for. I haven't used it that often as I am more into gentlemen-style knives but I had the impression that the 440C blade was keeping it's edge reasonably well.
It is sturdy with a really good framelock, the blade feels totally solid when locked. It should survive quite heavy handling. It's not yet on the absurdly high level of a ZT, but again at the price it's remarkably well put together.
And being very light and thin, it's truly effortless to carry.
This being said, I actually prefer the somewhat smaller Trance. I feel it's big enough and in my hands it's more practical. All comments above apply to the Trance as well.
 
Very good knife I just got one, EDC for two weeks now.

Thin, good lock up, easy to carry. Don't think you can go wrong for the price.
 
It's a great knive, sturdy, solid lockup and keep it's sharpness reasonable well. It's value for money. Knowing the designer, i'll say that great effort and thoughts had been put in to keep it simple yet very usable.

I can only echo what's already been said. Well designed, tough, good quality and finish. A really strong bang-for-your-buck knife.
 
it's a little too wide for my tastes, but as far as construction and fit and finish are concerned, it's top notch
