Very Happy
Fit and finish are outstanding. Feels very high quality and smooth operation. Spyderco did a great job. Very pleased with this purchase. I don’t review a lot of items but felt the need to chime in on the Sun and Moon version. No cons to speak of.

Practically perfect! Carries so nicely, feels great in your hands as far as functionality and as a pleasing texture. Smooth and beautiful, great steel ground smart and treated well. This one slices, and feels like a gem in your hands, it’s a great price for such a fine knife. Silky and classy.

Pros: Weight, Handle Material, Overall Quality
Cons: None
Fantastic quality
So far I have only tested the blade on paper and opening packages as I have received it just today. The knife is absolutely fantastic! Quality craftsmanship, the blade is perfectly centered, has a nice, sharp edge and the G10 handles with the inlays has a seamless smooth surface, not even a nm gap between the materials! The blade is a little hard to open but I imagine it will be smoother after some use and or some silicone

Gem of a compact folder. Fit & finish are "spot-on"
Fit and finish are spot-on, pun intended. Watch David Anderson's quick interview video with Eric Glesser, here on the site. Great little 2.8" blade, super useable design. Only 2.2 oz, so that's a 1.3:1 ratio, which is excellent. Thin slicey blade, thin overall handle profile, light enough to carry in your pocket. Sun & Moon G10 is very expertly finished for this price. And that MOP circular inlay is a nice touch.

This is a great EDC. It feels great in the hand. It has an incredibly stiff action. Good luck trying to spydie/-flick it. Hopefully, it will become looser over time. I can barely open it with one hand. Other than that, I’m not a huge fan of the locking mechanism. That being said, it has CTS-XHP blade; my first in my knife collection. If you are on the fence, I’d still highly recommend it
