What should I excpect? I have a feeling I'm going to love the Millie for EDC.

Whats your opinion on the BM 890?
 
The blue color and the shiny parts look nice. It doesn't look tactical or threatening, looks more like a letter opener. Although it's bigger knife, it does fit in my pocket well with a nice deep pocket clip (tip down). The liner lock works fine but I prefer axis lock so I can close it with one hand. 890 is assisted open so you have to use 2 hands to close it anyway, so I don't mind the liner lock. The thumb stud is a little different but when I got used to it, it's much easier to open than I first thought. Just a light flick in the right direction is all it takes. My 890 torrent lives in the car.
 
I have a 890 and I must say it is the only AO knife I would own. I can close it with ease with one hand. The nitrous assit is the best one I have used. The assist is built right into the liners. The only resistance you have is a little right at the end when closing. Fires fast and hard every time. Mine is solid lock up and no blade play. Now that being said I still hate AO knives. I know hate is a harsh word but I really detest them.
