Received my Umnumzaan in the mail from New Graham Knives today. Top shelf service, 100% recommend to everyone.

I like the added grippiness due to the lines.

I don't mind the overtravel block. If Chris feels like it should be there, I trust his judgment

As you can see I've already played a bit with it.
This Umnum is born on January 30, 2014, so is relatively young (5/27/14)
THOUGHTS:
It's not as hard as people make it to open the knife. I didn't think it was particularly tight, and I didn't notice any play at all.
I love the harpoon, it's ALMOST sharp .012" is what it said on the caliper.
I like having the double grooves, and the skull breaker/glass cracker
It works really well even with gloves on.
How I feel about it atm. 10/10.

Yup, I've been a fan of the Umnumzaan for a long time now, it's a great knife for sure. I also never understood those that have a problem operating the knife, it is the same as any other folder. :):thumbup:
 
Since I got a LH zaan, I absolutely love it. It is all that.
 
Very nice Sean!!:thumbup: Welcome to the Umnumzaan fan club!! Awesome knife IMHO!!
All the best!

Yep, the Zaan is a classic. Went without one for 53 years, bought three in the last two months.

Glad I did too. Welcome to the club!
