EDC XIII Which knife or knives are you carrying today?

New from the knife exchange.

I was waiting around before and after supper yesterday for my new Cheburkov Leader LW to show up, following the UPS truck on their live delivery location map as I sometimes do. Oddly, the truck was driving in and out of a rat's nest of small residential roads in the next town, a route not at all normal for our address, and I'm wondering if my package is on the wrong truck or if it was just mis-scanned. It's at least a couple hours late for UPS here, and the map shows the truck, which had drawn somewhat closer, rather suddenly headed in the wrong direction and some distance away. At least I haven't gotten a delivery notice yet, I reassure myself, as that would mean it's been dropped off at someone else's house, then sure enough it pops up with no sign of a truck on our road as "delivered at front door". Oh crap, methinks, but sure enough, there it is, mysteriously on our stoop, just before a quick rainstorm comes through.

Anyway, the knife is as I'd hoped for construction, super-light for a 4" bladed piece, and just exceptionally well-done in every way, save for having a wicked stiff opening detent that makes flipping an index finger piercing experience. It's reminiscent in that way of my ZT0452, though not as bad, that was eye-wateringly resistant to flipping opening when new. That knife did eventually break in and I've gotta figure that this one will too, as I'm otherwise extremely pleased with it.
