Ken Onion Ricochet?

[Outlaw_Dogboy]

I have heard one or two people mention this knife. What is it like? Good lock-up? Sturdy? I know that it has the 440V blade, but beyond that, and the way it looks, haven't heard that much. Is it a good knife/blade?

I have one and think it is very good for the money. I am a big CPM440V fan and that plus the speedsafe design is why I purchased it. Lockup is tight, came scary sharp, no problems. My only complain is the ramp that holds it closed is too steep and that makes it a little tougher than most to get the blade started opening...one its started, the spring rides over to the other side of the cam and it snaps the blade out nicely. Polished G-10 scales, titanium liners, cool opening, and topped off with the CPM440V. I like the Ricochet blade shape much better than the Random Task, for the type of cutting I do, I feel you have better cutting power with some curve in the blade.
