Small but stout
Nice knife, for the sub 3” (2.9”) size, it’s a stout knife. I found out I really like the deadbolt lock, also like how they all allow detent adjustment to tune how you like your knife to open and close. That might be the issue some people have, just not knowing to tune the detent to they’re preference. It’s the T6 screw that’s on just the one side. Smallish knife but the slightly thicker handle is easy to grip and thick blade stock is nice too. The deadbolt knives are meant to be strong not light and slicey say like a Spyderco Delica or the scary sharp and pointy Yojimbo.

I like Mine
Solid knife. Really like the blade thickness, I don't get the feeling that it would give in on me ever. While I'll admit that the flipper isn't as smooth as some other knives I'd hardly think that's justification for a 1-star review. Additionally, the lock mechanism is very strong. Having had a lock fail on me in the past this is another bonus for this knife. It's well-built and I've had mine for a few years now. Edge retention is very good.

Disappointing
This knife was to be a new work EDC, but I would never depend on it in that setting. It is hard to open when it opens, which is only about half the time. Thought it would break in over time, but after two weeks of carry it did not get better. I own other CRKT and they are fantastic. Don't know what happened with this model.
