Love this knife
I was looking for a decent, larger than average folder,and this didn't disappoint. For its size, it definitely has some heft to it. I didn't have any of the problems as the other buyer mentioned. Blade was shaving sharp, and a perfectly ground symmetrical blade. Action is lively, and I was slow enough to allow the blade to come down like a guillotine on my fingers. Liquid bandage. Blade has a gray dlc/cerakote coating that seems to be holding up well. Matching steel liners beneath the handle scales. Overall, very pleased with the purchase.

Bestech Noctar w/gray PVD Blade
I am a frequent buyer of knives but this was my first Bestech knife purchase. I was disappointed by the pocket clip, which like all knives it was set up for right hand carry, being left handed I attempted as always to reverse the clip but one of the screws is stripped to a point that it can't be removed, so I guess this knife will remain set up for right hand carry. Also the pivot function of this knife is also very rough, I lubed it up and worked it for nearly a half hour and while it is a little better it is still disappointing. A valuable lesson for me is to stay with brands such as Spyderco, Benchmade or Hogue in the future. Like most things in life you typically get what you pay for.
