Just recieved some mail and found thst my hogue ex02 came.

Opening the package, the box looks cheap at first glance.

the gmascus scales feel great on the hands, looks much better in person than pictures.

once flipped open, it has a satisfying 'clank'. very easy to flip, only way also.

fit and finish is nice, blade lacks any detail. Company name and logo paint seems like spray paint.

edge (despite warning: very sharp) is very dull. Itll push cut paper but for being polished it wasnt sharp at all. No worries I will throw on 400 1000 4000 and 8000 stones and even widen the bevel and microbevel it as well.

Pocket clip is nice but causes hot spots in my hand, ill remove them later.
Overall its a decent knife.
 
Spent some time sharpening the hogue.

It takes a great edge and fairy easy to profile.

The heel of the blade has a little spur, very annoying.
