Great Knife
Got grit and sand in it right away (my fault). I took it apart to clean it, it is tightly machined and I noticed the phosphor-bronze washers. Mine had 3 adjustment points on the Omega springs, I have only tried the firmest setting. Be warned, after re-assembly I had a hard time getting the centering perfect while not having the pivot screw too tight (but I’m no expert). If you have loose threads they may snag the thumbstuds when retrieving it from your pocket. I’ve had that happen a few times. Dropped it on concreted while closed—a minuscule pebble hit between the layers of richlite right on the edge and separated the topmost layer up just a hair. Otherwise no damage, that was a nearly un-replicatable event. Mostly used for food prep. Love how it cuts fruits, oddly satisfying. I did drive it too far through a steak on the grill and hit the grill grate and just barely rolled the very apex which is crazy at their prescribed HRC. Awesome knife. Near perfect length and the handle is very comfortable and roomy. Blade design is sweet, at a glance looks like a common blade profile but the angles are tweaked just enough to make it spectacular, also the swedge doesn’t go all the way to the tip letting it continue cut nicely all the way out. I liked it a lot better in person than in photos. So light I don’t know it’s there until I need it which is awesome for an 3.5” blade. Pocket clip is barely noticeable when holding. Highly recommend this knife.
