Curb dca maximal
Carries small but handles big. Full four finger contact, snappy action. Solid lock up, great g10 milling. So far the blade steel has been good. Tried this knife on a whim, and I'm very impressed so far. DCA knows his stuff. Recommended purchase.

Solid knife for a gift or recommendation
Purchased this knife as a gift but took it out of the package to handle it myself first. Great overall feel and quality at this price. G10 is my preferred handle/scale material, this didn't disappoint and I like the shape of it. Drop point blade is versatile, pretty thin and slicey. I cannot comment on the steel but hopefully it works well. I would honestly prefer something better known like Nitro V or 14C28N.This knife is a great gift item as long as you are okay with it being made in China. It's versatile, quality construction and appropriate for a wide variety of uses.
