Unique and worth it
The most noticeable disadvantage is that the blade is quite stiff to open and close, making it unsuitable for females. However, any man worth his salt will be able to move it well. Two significant points - The blade is 3.5 in. not the shorter measurement given, and mine is marked 14C28N, a good steel. You can use it comfortably if you turn it sideways - thumb on top. I don't think I've had a more solidly made slipjoint and it gives confidence - just use it within its limits like everything else. Is a good general purpose knife. Thought it would be mean to take a star off for blade stiffness. The hand grip is more secure than the Opinel, IMO, I do like the leather pouch, with the rod.
