I’ve recently started collecting budget/unique folding knives, and I have already come to love Kizer for its quality. This knife met all my expectations. Solid construction, fantastic steel, and VERY satisfying ergonomics and action. While the action isn’t quite “drop shutty” out of the box, because of the black stone ash blade, after about 2 weeks of working this knife out, it is super smooth and very useful all around. For me, this was worth the money.
