Nice knife! How's the fit and finish on this one? I've been looking at that model for about 2yrs now but haven't convinced myself to snag one. There's something about the looks that attracts my attention.:thumbup:
 
As far as the blade goes the grinds are symmetrical and the knife came shaving sharp. The blade is perfectly centered and the liner locks at approx. 40%. I used a dremel tool on the thumb studs to round them off somewhat as the corners on them were sort of sharp. The S curve where the bolsters meet the scales is almost perfect but there are slight gaps where the quince wood meets the bolster. Not really worth mentioning though but they are visible upon close inspection. Overall I like the knife. I have used it now quite a bit and the thing is still razor sharp. It sits nicely in the pocket and the light weight makes it barely noticeable.
 
That wood is purty.

I've only seen one with lighter wood and that dark wood is nicer -- to me anyways
