I actually carried it today. It carries alright in the pocket. Not nearly as good as my ZT 0560 which is only marginally smaller. The extremely deep carry pocket clip makes it difficult to retrieve at times. It is still however an amazing flipper.
I want to share a short story though...
A few weeks ago, I gutted and skinned a few catfish with the Division. The next day, I opened several bags of sand with it, and some light yard use as well. (fertilizer bags, round up packages, etc.) I noticed that the action had become gritty, so I took it to the shop and blew it out thouroughly. It was purged of anything that may have become trapped. I wasnt sure what to use for lubricant (I normaly use nano oil), but since I had a few seconds, I e-mailed Brous and asked what they recommened. No reply. A few days later, I tried again and was answered with a response that indicated that they had not heard of nano oil, but suggested tuff glide should be applied to the detent track. I added a small bottle to my next Amazon order and when it arrived I applied it as instructed and bam... back to normal. In the meantime, I had sent another e-mail and asked if they could shoot me a few stickers because only one came with the knife. No reply. These are just the facts. In the whole scheme of things, its not really important, however it irratated me enough (after making sure that I had sent them to the correct e-mail) that if I didnt love the action of the knife so much, it would have already been on the exchange. KAI is a much larger company, with a much higher flow of customer e-mails (i would think), and they have ALWAYS been very prompt in responding when I had a question. Just my .02.
