Great EDC knife
Excellent EDC knife, great value for money and will make a great 'beater' knife. Fits my hand well and very easy to manipulate especially for someone with Parkinson's.And wonder of wonders no loctite on the pocket clip screws - I always remove the pocket clip so the knife fits my hand better.

Great knife
I love this knife. It has great action, good stainless steel, and a nice stonewash. My one minor complaint is that the detent is strong enough that I can’t reverse flick it open without flipping it a few times first, but that muscle is weak and the flipper tab is great. The rib design on the handle is a nice touch and it does add a good grip. Great tip, and it’s a reverse tanto so it is nearly impossible to break. Overall great knife, there is only one minor issue and it’s easily avoidable by using the flipper tab.
