So is this "Kinetic Velocity" mechanism Kershaw's take on the IKBS?

I'm still waiting on the Kershaw Tilt, I wonder how long it gonna take to get one of these in my hands?

There has been a lot of chatter going on about this knife down in the Kershaw/ZT forum.

Look in the Kershaw / ZT forum. Lots of pics and info. I got to handle this knife for quite a while and it is truly a unique and amazing piece of work.

Great to see that this won Overall Knife of the Year. For one thing, of course, it seems well-deserved for such an awesome knife, but for another, winning the award pretty much ensures that KAI will put it into production.

Especially this one....it opens effortlessly. An absolutely amazing knife.
