Great EDC
This is a very well built just the right size knife for EDC. Fit and finish are excellent for a knife costing so little. The Blue G10 handles are a Blue grey color and have an interesting pattern on them-somewhat like the gills of a fish. They allow for a good grip and the handle size fits my medium to large size hand perfectly. The finger groove on the bottom of the blade and the jimping on top allows for a great choke up grip for better cutting when needed. The pocket clip works well even on thick warm up pants. The knife came razor sharp and cuts very well. I'm sure that some better steels for the blade would make it even better but for now I cannot complain. I feel very confident carrying this as the button lock is very sturdy with no sticking and the knife appears ready and able for some hard work. At this price this is a great bargain.
