Occasionally, I order a knife out of curiosity more than desire. That's what happened with this knife and I'm glad I did. Despite the name, this knife is lightweight and has a slim feel in the pocket. My hands (medium-large) just fit within the limits of the handle, but larger hands may not. This is the only reservation I have in recommending it to everyone. Otherwise, it has a fantastic full-flat grind, unconventional thumb studs that are quite useable, and great action.
