Great everyday knife at a great price!

I have several higher end knives that run $300+ but I carry this knife more. Don’t get me wrong the materials and fit and finish on my nicer knives is definitely much better but this knife is the perfect size and weight for EDC. Full four finger grip (I’m 6’2” with a little larger than average hands) nice point to the blade, stainless steel handles are nice and I can even reverse flick for fun. One of the best features on this knife is the flipper tab. It’s really subtle but works perfectly. So no snag in the pocket. Also the frame lock protrudes just slightly allowing for a much easier close than usual on a frame lock. Oh and Kershaw sent it pretty sharp OTB.

Nice frame lock

I don't hesitate to make knives more user friendly for myself. The 'carbon fiber' pieces got pulled out because they were slippery and the smooth metal underneath got roughed up for traction. Ground out the notch to have better access to the lock. The flipper tab is small but works well and is hidden when open. The blade can be opened by thumb. It's a yard work knife and gets rough use. No hot spots, good grip, solid construction, sharp blade and easy to touch up. Thin but has some heft which comes with the SS handles. Easy to clean out and a good clip.
