This knife is like new from maker. I have carried it a handful of times and only cut paper and string. Never sharpened and it is still razor sharp from the maker. Wouldn't mind keeping it, just thought I'd try something new. Flipping action is very smooth, detent and lockup are perfect. Strong early lockup with no play and no stick. Blade sits a bit off center when closed with no rub.
Specs from maker:
Blade is hollow ground and bead blasted AEB-L
Bead blasted titanium lockside frame
Desert Ironwood Burl over titanium liner on oposite side
Stainless pocket clip
Bone G10 backspacer
Carbidized lockface
7 1/4" overall length; 4 3/16 closed; blade is 3 1/16 tip to frame
Knife is thin ~3/8" and will carry well in your pocket
Flips great with no wrist
Full Disclosure: There are a few minor finishing blemishes as received from the maker. All are visible in photos. They are minor, but I just want to mention everything so there are no surprises. First, there is a hairline crack in the top of the wood overlay. Second, there are minor belt burns on the flipper and on the top of the blade (lock side). Lastly, the thumb slot is imperfectly milled. None of these affect function in the least, and aren't even very visible at first glance, but again, just want to mention everything. All in all, this is a phenomenal knife for the price.
