This is a cool, unique knife that i've carried and used a bunch, but it's just a bit slim for my taste. It's 3 3/4" closed, and very thin for a two bladed knife. Blades are excellent 52100 and hollow ground very thin. This knife is a great cutter, and the 1/16" thick pen blade is like a scalpel. Covers are an unusual and good looking micro jigged brown bone. Both blades are tight, with easy pulls and great snap, and both springs are flush in all positions (half stops on both blades). Blades and springs have patina going. Has been sharpened and comes very sharp.
This knife does have some quirks that it came with new. The outer liners are mill relieved, but the center liner isn't, so there is some rub on the tang over the stamp. The middle pin on the mark side, and the end cap on the pile side have a small knick where the jigging ran onto it a little. The pen blade nearly touches the liner, and the crescent nick is slightly irregular. The plunge of both main grinds, and the swedges of the main blade are not perfectly symmetrical. All considered, still a very handsome knife.
