Interesting Buck Knife

That is an interesting knife.

"This knife offers one-hand SafeSpin™ deployment for easy opening and closing without having to touch the blade."

Anyone own one?

Wondering about the lock.
 
Here's a picture for those that are wondering what it looks like. (like I was :D)

I passed due to lack of liner, too much side to side flop in the ones I held at BPS
 
I have one, it's ugly as sin, but it is a nice outdoor knife. I like the serrations for cutting rope/making fuzz sticks, but I wish it came in plain-edge as well. I didn't notice excessive blade play, and the lock seems solid enough for mild use, probably not as sturdy as buck's lockback, but good enough. I like the grippy handle material, though I've heard it gets discolored and wears easily. Thanks to a nice clip, the knife rides very deeply in your pocket. Steel is typically good buck 420hc, sharpened to a 32 degree included angle. I find it's great as a basic knife for outdoor use. Pick one up, they're cheap enough.
