Swiza - a new take on the SAK

I posted my reply in 2016, but honestly haven't carried it much since. I still get weirded out by the scale material, but it's an otherwise quality knife.

The scale material handle shape and locking blade are the items that I find most interesting. I had a celludor handle melt in contact with loc-tite once, so I am interested to see how the grippy stuff holds up.

I like the handle shape when using the cork puller (the soft grippy handle helps in this regard as well).

The release for the blade lock is very discreet, which is a plus in some situations and it certainly not likely to be accidentally depressed to the point of releasing the blade.

I still need to put it through its paces for a while longer, but so far I like it.
