Pros: Weight, Handle Material, Pocket Clip, Blade Material, Overall Quality, Blade Sharpness
Cons: Lock Ease of Use
Very nice for the price.
I am primarily a collector of blades with simplistic and/or traditional design. This knife fits the bill since it is both. The steel is very good everyday steel. It does not open easily one-handed; but that's ok since it will probably not be used as a hurry-up emergency blade. It is substantial in its lock-up but needs two hands to release the liner lock to close. These issues are not so much a problem as they are merely a point of fact. Realistically they actually add to the secure lock-up. The pocket clip will have to be slightly rebent to remove some of the tension; but that's easy enough to do. All in all, I really like this knife. The only problem is that I have so many knives that I like that it will be difficult to decide which one to carry and when.
