almost perfect
As an open knife in hand, I love it. Scalpel sharp and excellent fit and finish. So sharp that you have to be careful not to hold the closed knife too tight, it your skin will get between the scales and touch the back edge of the blade. This also lets you know the canvas micarta will pick up blood very quickly. :/ The detents are very good, maybe a little stiff new given the smallish thumb nub and smooth front flipper tab. I'm learning to get along, which seems to be well with the effort.

Got it for EDC. Mainly use it on wood, cardboard, plastic and aluminum. Scalpel sharp, it has already bitten me twice. When closed, the bottom of the blade is close to edge of the scales, so if some skin gets in there you get a good finger prick. Lesson learned, not a fidget knife. The micarta is actually fresh and fuzzy out of the box, which is why you might be fidgeting with the knife. The fuzz absorbs blood. When open it fits my hand perfectly and makes a very comfortable grip. Construction is very nice. I find the detents a little tight, especially since the flipper tab and the blade lug are both smallish. The handle size is on the low end of "just right", so that doesn't help with the grip when one-hand opening. It's like a pretty and capable coworker; stick to business and you'll be fine, and it make you look good at work.
