Very stylish.
This version of the Ritual is certainly more practical on account of its smaller size. The shape plus the burlap and bronze colored steel look very nice. The assisted flipping action is smooth and satisfying. The fit and finish aren't the best, but it's not a very expensive knife, so that's okay. The tip on mine was not sharp out of box, so I sharpened it myself. Now it's nice and pokey. You can't be too picky about this one because the focus is style and it's only moderately priced. Nice, unique piece overall.

Awesome Design with Cheap Materials
This is probably one of the coolest knife designs I own. While the design is great, the assisted opening is lack luster and I wonder if the ball bearing are even doing anything. They are housed in plastic and very small. Needless to say, I disassembled it and was underwhelmed. I think they should have put some decent ball bearings and did away with the spring. And the pocket clip….scratching my head with their logic. It’s a two piece design that just seems like a cheap out.

Tiny compact
I have the original ritual, big as it is I like it very much. This compact is so small in my hand, it really is more suitable to a child or a man with small hands. No use for this. The spring assist is average, not slow but not like the big ritual. Would not recommend.
