Good EDC fixed blade, one quirk

I carried this around for a couple days and did some comparisons with a similar knife. I wear it around my neck, and it is very discreet and comfortable.

It's a good knife for urban EDC: very pretty, cuts well, solid construction, sharpens easily for a neck knife, and not at all a problem in most locations. It is definitely worth considering if you're interested in a small non-threatening fixed blade EDC. For my taste I would have liked the point a little higher and the belly a little flatter for precision work, but this is a robust slicer. The sheath is a little stiff by design, and works well for neck wear.

I took a star off because the finger choil at the bottom of the knife just isn't very safe in a standard grip, if the knife slips backwards you'll get a nasty cut. I removed the lanyard and rest the base of the handle against my palm - it's a more tiring but safer, and you get good control. Also, the lanyard cord is better around your neck than the bead chain, which is a little too noisy. Still, a good knife: maybe a bit pricier than some alternatives, but it is quite nice.
