This is my first miguron and I am highly impressed with it. I have several knives and mainly focus on the budget range. The fit and finish is great, I love the feel and contour of the handles. Like any other knife, work the blade to get it worn in or the excess oil from manufacturing out and then it opens like a dream. The detent is great and getting a knife with 14c and Titanium scales for this price is ridiculous! You will not regret buying this knife!
