What are your thoughts on the Ontario Utilitac II?

Its a Joe Pardue design manufactured by Ontario in Taiwan

Its got an AUS8 blade (black coated) with G10 handles and comes with a lanyard.

I got one the other day and I must say I'm very impressed, the knife isn't expensive overall but it feels good in my hand, has a nice blade shape and opens easily and smoothly.

I haven't seen any talk about it and was just wondering if anyone else had picked one up?
 
I picked up both the Satin and Black versions and I've been alternating EDCing them for the past week. These knives are definitely high value pieces:

Was wondering how do they compare to the Rat 1.In terms of liner lock tension.
 
I think the Utillitac lock is easier to push back when closing the knife. I'm not sure if that is because there is significantly more surface to push on with the Utillitac than with the Rat 1 or if the tension is actually different.

The size of the liners and the locks appears very similar:

The Utillitac is the top one in the next image...

It's definitely has a smoother and faster deployment than the Rat.
