Pros: Handle Material, Blade Material
Cons: None
Great Knife.
I've had it for about 5 years as my main EDC knife, and it went everywhere with me. I never cleaned, or oiled it. and I've put it wet and with no signs of rust. my only dislike is the way to open it, but with a little practice its pretty easy to open with my thumb. but other then that, great knife.

I purchased 2 Endorsers with black coating and plain edge as gifts for friends; this knife looks better than its online pictures! Beautiful handle scales and the black blades go nicely with the black liners. Cuts through paper like butter out of the box; demonstrated the firesafe deployment for my friend and I found it a little stiff to actuate. Think loosening the pivot point screw will help; videos I've seen show it to be a fast deployer. A little on the heavy side though it felt comfortable in my pocket; I think most guys will find it easy to carry. Good clip, wouldn't mind if it buried a little more in pocket but not a big deal. Not a hard use knife in my opinion but it will do the duties of pretty much any folding knife in its size class and feels good in hand. Great price for such beautifully executed handle scales and blade; highly recommended gift and gentleman's carry option.

The Endorser in black has become my everyday pocket knife. Slim and easy to carry in pocket. I like every aspect of the Endorser, from one handed opening and closing (opening took a little while to do without thinking about it) to it's very sharp and tough blade. I'm never without this knife.

I've been carrying this knife for about a month and I love it! It looks good, feels good, holds a edge well, well balanced in hand and at the price Knife Center sells it for you just can't beat this knife! Only one problem, when I got it the blade had a nick in the edge. but that was taken care of with the first sharpening. If you like a light knife get one of these, you'll be glad you did!

I bought this because it looked cool, and I NEEDED another EDC. Have one other CKRT, figured this would be a nice addition. Very sharp out of the box. The assist is accomplished by pressing the thumb stud in a bit, deployment is quick after some break in time and lube. Weight is light, but if you carry it in a pair of summer light weight shorts, it works well. I like the color of the handles. If you have friends that are knife know how challenged, have some fun and let them figure out how to open it. Lock up is tight, blade is centered. Only draw back is the clip has only ONE position. Not bad at all for the price point.

Cons: Lock Ease of Use
Beautiful knife, tough to operate
I'll preface this review by saying, the issues I'm having with this knife may be user error so I'll start with the pros first. This is a very good looking knife. The handle construction is really nice, the workmanship is good and the knife is comfortable to hold. This knife is a comfortable size and will be a good, nice to carry blade. The con, for me right now, is the operation of the blade lock. It is very hard to operate and I feel the blade "sticks" opening and closing. I find I have to depress the release and push out the blade with the side of my thumb and then "flick" the blade to fully open. This is fine and certainly similar to how i might open other blades but to actuate the lock with the side of my thumb and then flip the blade open i feel that my thumb is too close to the blade. I've resorted to opening this knife with two hands as i feel I'm safer that way. Again, this could all be user error as this is my first knife with this type of lock release.

A well made, nicely designed knife for the money. The handle is well shaped and cool looking. The only disappointment is the size of the handle. It's too small to get a good grip on.
