I've owned 2; The Waypoint and the IQ (actually I've owned 3 IQ's)
Love the Waypoint form factor and looks. It's a large blade in a very compact handle.
What I didn't love was the slipperiness of the handle scales. It never felt secure in my hand.
I know they make versions with the show side scale knurled or whatever they call it, but it's only
knurled on the show side. That makes no sense to me and just looks unbalanced.
The IQ I keep trying to love but no such luck. I absolutely love the way it looks but I just don't carry
it as I have other knives in that blade size. And, truth be told, it's just too pretty to use. So my third
one is FS now.
I really want to try the Rincon (sold out now), the Drift, or the Nine (also sold out in the configs. I'd want).
I like knives with blades under 3.25" so these 3 fit the bill
Any comments on any of those.
What are your favorite QC's.

They’re all too small for my hand. I find their designs visually appealing though.
 
In my younger days, I spent a lot of time saltwater fishing/playing so I appreciate that QC designs models to tolerate this harsh environment. The Drift LC is the only QC I own and I love it. The blade, action, ergos, and even the pocket clip are done so well it's almost boring. The Waypoint LC will probably be my second QC.
