Cool knife! The opening holes are very useful and so is the blade shape. I like the type of construction.... G10 w/o full steel liners which makes it very light for size. It's a good sized knife you can actually carry without getting weighted down.

I like the looks of it.
Funny story about the Spyker...I was at The House of Knives here in Canada. My wife suggested that I go in and take a look. I'd already been in that store, and I knew what they had. I told her that the only knife I was interested in was in their window display case. It was the Spyker, and it was $300.
At that same store, I took a look at the Leatherman Charge XTi. The clerk took it out of the display case and handed it to me. I opened each of the blades in turn and checked the lateral play. The clerk said, "I guess you know what you're looking for."
In the past, I would have tried to make her feel dumb, but I've matured a lot since then. I just told her, "Yeah, I do." I'm trying hard to not be a jerk these days.
