Just got this in yesterday, and made the video ASAP :)

Overall VERY SMOOTH action. Using KVT ceramic ball bearing system, which im pretty sure they pay a royalty to Kershaw if they announce KVT in their specs.

Looks quite similar to the Boker Kwaiken, but other than that, nothing is the same. Every angle etc are different, but thats not to say if they copied Bokers design or not, let everyone be the judge of that.

Edge isnt as sharp as i wanted to, but it will cut paper. Looks COOL, color contrasts on handle with pocket clips, pivot collar etc are a very nice touch.

Overall Im very satisfied.

Cheers.

*To avoid all the drama about dealer selling stuff, i posted this post simply to do a review, I do not intend to sell anything through this post. :)

That is BEAUTIFUL! :cool: Many thanks for the video. :thumbup:

KVT = Kershaw Velocity Technology

edit: Can't decide whether I like the CF/orange or the tiger stripe/orange best. :confused:

Looks like they'll be in the $150 territory here. A lot more affordable than the previous SHY series knives.

I dig the pop art colors too.

I was trying to beat everyone else with the video lol. Get the carbon fiber, its awesome
 
I didn't like the looks of Stedemons I've seen before, but I have to say that this one looks amazing!
 
Does anyone have enough experience with one to comment on the G-10 clip? I would be concerned with it snapping off or not being adjustable.

Well from my 2 days experience with it, it seems pretty solid, didnt look or feel like its going to break. I did bump it into some metal surface while its in my pocket, left a tiny scratch on the g10 edge, wipe it with some damp cloth, and its fine
