Absolutely awesome design. Another one to add to the "want" list.

Just discovered this one today. Wow, I'm really digging the scale style and nice clean ffg blade.

I like the thumb studs and the pivot. Tip up only carry, not so much.

I haven't had much interest in Kershaw till now. Typically Kershaw knives have small handles that do not fit my large hands. I think the handles on the injections will not only fit better in larger hands but I love the fact that the blades manual opening. I will be buying the 3.0 and the 3.5 version.

Handle shape reminds me a lot of Buck's Vantage line.

For all of you that think that "made in the U.S." is the be all and end all of knife manufacturing; look really closely at Case knives. They couldn't Center a blade if their life depended on it. It's not about where a knife is made. it's about the quality control; and Kershaw does it pretty well. Now, if your you're talking about bringing jobs back to the U.S.; that's a different topic.

Just had to drop by and thank you for your first post, billyboy4873. It took a little while, but the wait was worth it. :thumbup:

I do not find this Injection model styling attractive at all - I also handled a piston and a knockout at a show this weekend and simply did not like the feel/styling of them....

To each their own - it looks like a chinese knife with that enlan-style pivot - IMO only.

Like it - but not enough to buy one
