Worth every penny
I contemplated this knife for some time. I saw the good and the bad reviews, but I am a sucker for an American built knife; let alone one with CPMS30V at $100. I decided to take a chance and i am VERY glad i did. This thing looks slick and the opening is even slicker. Quality was spot on right out of the box. Great centering, quick/smooth deployment, well sharpened blade and no wiggle at all. It seems to me that whatever QC issues were associated with the first few runs have been addressed. I have blades from Benchmade, Spyderco, CRKT, ZT and this one fits right in. I am not sure there is much better USA made out there right now at this price-point.

Nice knife, horrible grind.
Honestly, one of the worse grinds to make it through QC. Nice action and everything else is top notch.
