I received mine the other night and it is FANTASTIC. I haven't had time to really play with it and look at it in detail, but it opens just as you'd expect on those bearings.. probably better than you can imagine. Will set the detent just right before shipping so that it opens perfectly but seems to have enough detent to keep the massive blade from flopping out. With the HRD, it should be easily tunable if not to everyones liking. The blade finish on mine was excellent with no stray grind markings still left that I could see and a very nice satin look. The handle has a pretty aggressive stonewash and looks really nice. I can't wait to find time to get it side by side with the original TiTAN and will take some pictures to post.
My only disappointment was that it came bundled up in a shop towel in the custom case. The case didn't appear to have any way to secure the knife in it like the custom laser cut foam for the original TiTAN box. The case though is quite nice with the signet ring seal and the lasered leather zipper pull. The wood business card insert is one of the neatest, classiest things I've ever had come with a knife and the wood card for Woods Bladeworks word play is just fun.
