Just got one for Christmas today, and I absolutely love it. Contoured G10 handles are awesome, the milled steel liner lock is a refreshing change from the standard flat liner lock that can sometimes pinch your thumb. The blade fires out like a rocket, and with an audible thud, and the grind and rounded spine are superb. This is one of the sharpest factory edges I've ever had on a knife too, and coming from such a thick stock on a blade. I could go on about the positives, but I do have one negative, the pocket clip is super tight. Not sure if I should attempt to bend it out a bit, or if it'll get better with time, but it takes two hands to remove it from pocket.

Anyway, I am extremely impressed so far with this knife, and I see me buying many lionsteel knives in the future!
 
It's an awesome knife, currently one of my favorites. I agree about the clip. I did two things. First I attached a lanyard so that I don't add pressure to the clip when drawing from pocket. Second, I carefully bent it out a tiny bit. Even though I don't normally like a lanyard on a knife I feel that it is a necessity with the Kur and I can live with it. Try that first.
