Sweet!
I ordered on a Sunday, it was delivered Wednesday morning. Outstanding, Knife Center! This is a very handy little cutter! It's everything you need, and nothing you don't. Thin, light, and sharp. The handle is a mortised tang, completely enclosed by the Micarta, which is nicely finished. Not too slick, not overly grippy, but might be a bit small for some hands. Finally, the thumb grooves are a nice touch. The blade is quite nice. The flat grind cuts well, in both slicing and push cutting. In fact, all of the grind lines are nicely symmetrical. Jimping cuts are straight, with even depth, and are grabby without being aggressive. It's also quite non-reflective. The only markings are the Civivi logo on one side, and 'Terzuola' on the other. There is a subtle elegance to the overall appearance. The sheath is well done. Holds the knife tight, no movement at all, yet releases easily. Plenty of adjustments, as long as you don't mind a high ride, or wear it scout-style. Concealment is quite effective, tight to the body, with little to no printing. It has a drain-hole. The T-Clip is a nice addition. Fast, and easy to slip on/off, and it's easily removable from the sheath. The slimmed-down package can disappear into "some" pockets (it's still around nine inches in the sheath), yet still be accessed quickly with the included lanyard. It's not perfect, of course. The lanyard tube was quite sharp on the inside radius on both sides. Ten minutes with some fine-grit wet-dry sandpaper took care of that. That's it. The only issue. Overall? It's light, handy, and well thought-out. A really nice little knife.
