One of their best minis
Awesome model for my minis, basically a mini Altus with a little extra finger stopper, the expertise of a fine gentlemen. Same awesome thin spear point, and same Nitro-V that I often prefer. The brown aluminum handles with neat grip pattern lines. Superb snap action and you get the same Altus ultra-fidget. These would gift great maybe oughta get more

I like it!
First, the knife is small and hard to tell how small in pictures but it still feels nice in hand. The scales and scale pattern feels amazing, I love this pattern and hope to see more of it, and the brown tan color too. Blade is sharp and slicey, I bought it for around the house edc and when I go outside to walk my cat. It is compact yet very proficient and has a nice overall feel. Anyways I recommend if you need a compact edc knife that can handle most tasks, and has figit factor.

Nice little knife
This is a very nice looking small knife. Its thin, slicey blade came very sharp from the factory! It may be the sharpest knife I own. Because of its size and its strong detent, I find it difficult to use the thumb studs to open it. Fortunately it sports a flipper, which is a bit sharp on the finger. It’s easy to open the knife with a button press and quick wrist flick.
