I just received my satin and black CQC-7 Waves. They are beautiful. And the "Wave" is slick! Incredible speed. You guys weren't kidding when you said it is fast. I am truly impressed. The rounded edges of the G-10 scales as well as the sticky surface are brilliant. My hands sweat alot and these folders feel so "right". The satin blade finish is unlike any finish I've seen. But I'm sure you've all heard these praises before. Just wanted to express my thoughts about these knives.
