One of my all time favorite folder designs. The blade combines the slicing ability of a recurve, the utility and acute point of a wharncliffe and the in-line tip of a drop point. The ergonomics just melt into my hand and the stud lock make it easy and safe to close. Kershaw continues to come out with some great designs, but this one makes me wish Ken Onion would come back and design for them again.
 
...a folder popular with true users for all the qualities you've described...and very unpopular with most everyone else because recurves are not easily sharpened and therefore despised...and now that it's out of production it's becoming mildly desirable among those too; because we all want what we can't have...
