The ronin is an excellent little knife, made of premium materials and a fierce cutter. The thin, flat grind helps it slash deeply - I had a fun time testing it on bananna tree trunks (plentiful and renewable where I live). The fine point on the blade penetrates well plus is useful for many things like getting splinters out. It "sits" more naturally in my hand with a saber grip than any other knife in my collection.
It is a little heavy for a neck knife (at least for me) and the sheath construction could be improved - i wrecked the aluminium tension screw trying to adjust the fit.
