i havnt heard much about it but i like the design,anyone have one?if so post your thoughts about it:D
 
Cool knife that can be great fun. Just make sure you open and close it carefully as you inspect it, then, watch the DVD that comes with it. Go slow or it will bite you ;)
 
Its lock is great for a reliable, secure lock and great for repetively opening and closing for no real purpose. Its blade is a hollow-ground modified spear point that cuts very well. When sharpening, it's a good idea to hold the blade diagonal to the sharpening stones because the carabiner/thumbdisc thingy will otherwise get in the way. The pocketclip is interchangeable for righties and lefties and allows for discreet carry. The safety switch helps keep the knife from unintentionally opening, so that's very good, too.

The Kershaw ET is a very nice knife for both using and for being a cool knife. Just got one with Snap-On's logo on the blade and a red handle, well, just because.
 
I was given one by a friend who had been bitten by the tip one too many times. I personally dont like it at all, although I admire the work that went into the design. I see it as a novelty, not a practical tool.
 
Its neat, but ridiculous.

The edge of mine smacked the back of the handle when closing, dinging the hell out of it. Did that from new. I sent it in, and when it came back it had been sharpened heavily to get the ding out, and now the handle scratches both sides of the blade when closing.

I can see why they are discontinued.


Its fun to flick, but thats about it.
