Wow . So I imagine most people either buy this akri 2 or the velona first and see the way,it’s and come back for the other $50 knife Miguron offers . They are both incredible imo .the akri 2 I knew right away the fit and finish is superb . You don’t see these extras in other knives in this price range . I handle plenty of knives and this front flipper is an easy one and the jimping is perfect . The blade is crowned , it’s 14c which I love . Don’t even listen to the others 14 c is good steel and easy to heat treat and that’s why it’s so good all the time . This knife looks classy , there’s no relief to get to the lockbar but it’s not needed and they left it that way to keep a uniform look . It looks awesome setting in the table , not like others , more refined . Just get it . You won’t be sorry . Get the Velona as well . Thieve are nicer than the civivis and kizers imo . Just a lil bit and that’s a good thing
