Great knife
Hogue started a new auto line with Ballista I. The knife is beautiful, with nice handle color, solid feel, great blade (steel, sharpness and shape), release and safety lock. The size of knife is right and it feels great in your hand. The plus is flawless button deployment, as well as easy to slide safety. Looks like a home run from Hogue.

Received my new Hogue Ballista today, couldn't wait for it to be delivered so I went to the Post Office first thing this morning and picked it up. Got home and opened it up and as I expected I was not disappointed. I own several Hogue knives and a few made by Hogue for someone else ( Sig Saure and HK) As with all their knives the quality of craftsmanship and materials was top shelf. I'm starting to add some color to my collection kind of moving away from my Black Knives Matter mindset. I got the matte blue aluminum scales and they are gorgeous. It opens with authority and the blade is shaving sharp. I haven't had an opportunity to use it yet (only had it for a couple hours) but there is no doubt in my mind that it will preform flawlessly. Thank you KC for the fast turnaround and you beat the other websites prices.

Hogue has really impressed me.
This knife is beautiful and perfectly designed. Excellent fit and finish. I am looking forward to see if Hogue brings their automatic line up a notch. I am very pleased with their current line of this style automatic. I would love to see a damascus in this model as well as other colors or different types of scales. I rate this knife a 10.
