Decent, but overpriced
I got this to use as a gentleman's EDC knife. What I like: Weight of the knife. It's literally featherweight. You will not even know it's there Pocket clip. Great and deep carry Fit and finish is 4 out of 5, materials used, good edge grind. What I don't like: Description states "hollow" grind - it is in fact flat grind. I was disappointed because I prefer hollow grind for a knife like this. Titanium against steel liner lock. Not sure how this will function over time. I would prefer a steel on steel liner. Cocobolo wood looks and feels like polymer. Not as authentic and rugged looking as I expected. It looks like lines were milled to match the horizontal lines of the blade finish. Sturdiness is questionable. Even though this will not be for hard use, I'd like a little extra strength in the build. Overpriced. I'm a knife collector and I'd say this knife is a solid $70-80. I paid $112 on sale and I see the regular price is $144. With how big Boker is, they could either use a more premium steel or make this knife more affordable.
