I received the Marksman Elite today and I am impressed. It is a beauty! The blue titanium Duracote feels very nice and gives little more traction to the aluminum handles. Mine is prefect out of the box. The wooden box that it comes in reminds me of a vintage wine box-pretty cool.
This is the first Marksman that I have owned or even handled and I really like how smooth the flipper works. It is the fastest flipper that I own and I have many of them. I barely push and it flies out. I have to remember, though, to keep my fingers out of the way when closing it. It closes just as fast. The knife came extremely sharp.
The only issue that I have with it is that it is too pretty to use, which is a great shame due to the S90V blade begging for use. I might have to buy one that is not a limited edition to carry and use!
