Ok, so just picked up one of those Amazon $39.99 G10 Speed Bumps. I'd like to know what everyone else thinks about this knife. I'm sorta ambivalent about it. I modified the clip slightly due to reading about how tight it was, and I have to say the thing came pretty dang sharp, but it's almost like a backwards red-headed step child. You know it's deserving of love, but it's almost embarrassing to be seen with it..:D

All in all though, I'm glad I got it.
 
I had one and liked it, although the assisted opening seemed sluggish to me. Also, the tip would catch in the lining of my pocket. I don't know if that's a design flaw or if mine was defective. None-the-less, I'm bidding on one on ebay anytime I find one hoping to get another.
 
Mine is definitely harder to close than the spec bump I have. Thinking about grinding down the little catches that prevent closure.
 
I love mine, have not carried it (I have the aluminum version that I carry), just looked at it and put a new torsion bar in (AKA, not sluggish anymore, torsion bar was bent to hell in mine) I am going to order a few more when I have $$$ to carry and to give away to friends.
 
I have a few bumps and I love them. I definitely don't mind being seen with them. I always show my knives to my co workers and the bumps get good remakrs from most.
