I'm very happy with my CSAR-T folder. It's my second, having returned the first after finding a hairline crack in the blade, from the thumbstuds to the top of the blade. No issues returning it, and my new one is incredible! Thick, heavy, and sharp. The sheath is ok too, but I'm more likely to drop the knife into a 9mm mag pouch on my vest at work. Overall, my favorite knife.

Thanks for the reply...it's not helping any Going to get me one asap!

Put it in your pocket, carry it, cut something, repeat.

Agreed

UnBox, check play, ogle, wipe off any excess lubricating oil, find something to cut.

After it's open I eezox the blade and let it sit and dry overnight.

if you don't press a new knife up to your nose and take a deep, long, glorious snifffffff, then something is wrong with you. Whether its a new car, a new woman, a new chicken biscuit or a new knife, you gotta get into the smell and get the smell into you. It equips and edifies you for what is next to come.

haha yes!
