Anybody have one of these? I just ordered one, tanto with satin blade. Looks like a great knife, but not much info on it.
 
I handled them at Bladeshow when helping out at the booth. They feel really great in the hand. I like a good fixed blade myself. These are pretty dang spiffy.
 
I have one. This is a deadly sexy blade. The build quality and design are top knotch. It is a purpose built fighter and has a nice balance that makes it a fast blade to handle. The handle is awesome. I love the bumpy G10 that has a sort of topo style machining meeting red liners and finally a slightly exposed tang with rounded edges. It fits my medium sized hands like a glove but may be small for anyone with big mitts. Mine came very sharp and was pleasantly surprised to find it has a very slight belly on the main edge. I really cannot emphasize the quality of the build with everything being perfectly aligned, perfectly finished and even jimping that is grippy w/o being painful. How they attach the G10 scales is a bit of a mystery without any visible hardware. The tanto tip is steeper than many making for easy penetration while having more material behind the edge for strength. I am surprised this knife doesn't get more attention compared to Cold Steels, SOG , and CRKT tanto fighters because this is just so well built, looks amazing while being the best fitting knife I own. I just love handling this thing but it is a fighter-period. I wouldn't use it as a camp knife with the blade being as svelte as it is. It is my little katana and in the right hands would be a serious weapon...hell, even in my hands this thing is fast, sharp, 5" of slicing and piercing madness. You won't be disappointed. I assume by satin , that you mean the non coated matte blade. If so, just be aware that like all knives with this finish it will scratch extremely easy. Found out the hard way doing some light sharpening with DMT stones.
 
got a picture by chance im not good with names of things lol i probably handled one at BLADE tho i played with all his knives lol
