I really like this knife. The quality and fit and finish is superb. This is a classy light weight knife. The titanium with carbon fiber is not to slick, just right. The texturing on the titanium is placed correctly and makes holding the knife very easy. The carbon fiber is stunning to the eye, and on both sides of the handle. The blade is thin and slicey. Flipper tab is easy to use with no lock stick. Overall, I wish all my knives worked this well out of the box. I would buy this knife again if I lost it.
