Pros: Weight, Handle Material, Pocket Clip, Overall Quality

Cons: None

Great EDC Knife!

Picked this knife up as I'm an avid knife collector and EDC fanatic. Loved the laser cut pattern and overall look of this knife. Overall I would definitely recommend it as one of the top budget EDC knives. Pros: • Solid framelock • Good EDC size • Stonewash blade hides scratches • Deep carry pocket clip • Textured scales give good grip • Very slim profile and lightweight without feeling small or poor quality • Can fit full hand on the handle Cons: • Detent is a little stiff, which makes it a little hard to snap open with the thumb studs • Bottom of framelock had a sharp edge to it • Lanyard hole is barely large enough for 550 paracord

Pros: Pocket Clip, Blade Sharpness

Cons: None

Heavy but Slim

This knife is descent for the price. At 5.004 ounces it is not the lightest knife but its slim build and deep pocket clip make it easier to carry than you would think. It comes fairly sharp for a budget/entry price point knife. Its framelock lock up good. I only gave it 3 stars because it is impossible ( for me anyway ) to open it by using the thumb studs. The tight framelock rest against the blade and the strong indent and the placement of the thumb studs make it impossible for me to open one handed. I have not had time to try and adjust the pivot screw yet. This is not a deal breaker for me but if it is for you you might want to look at a different knife. I bought this along with a cold steel balisong and this was my first time ordering from Knife Center and I got to say that the shipping was the fastest that I have ever seen. Hope this review helps someone.

Pros: Pocket Clip

Cons: Weight, Handle Feel, Lock Ease of Use

Design Oversight

The blade is what you would expect from a ~$20 dollar knife and the clip is sturdy. The opening and closing of this knife are awful. The thumb studs are far too small for good purchase when opening and the area of the frame lock for closing is also very small and uncomfortable to use.
