Sunday morning, slip on the jeans, grab the Persian, put on the coffee. I've had this knife since Christmas and I am still in my infatuation phase (meaning lots of fondling, little cutting). It has been my day-off carry and I reach for it first thing. This is a great knife and I think it is the best value in the Spyderco line-up right now. Classy looks, handle ergonomics that rival or surpass 
the Wegner (that resides in my other pocket), slicing ability par excellence, and it opens with a very reassuring click. I don't know if you can do it much better than this. I highly recommend it as a "must have" with two, well three, caveats. One, dual liners make it heavy. May not be suitable for dress pants. Two, even though my hand really locks into the handle the micarta is slick. Might not be an issue, but something to consider depending on your potential uses. And C, personal preference would be for the addition of a thumb ramp. All minor issues unless your plan is to gut a deer in your suit. 
I always give my lovely wife a Christmas knife wish-list. This year, as soon as I saw a pic of the Persian, I told her to tear up the list. Kudos to Ed Schempp and Sal for a job well done.
