In initial handling, this knife feels like a fixed blade. No lightweight here ... solid performer. Lock bar engagement is perfect. Carbon/G-10 scales are not slick and have some texture for a grip. Still breaking in the pivot with bronze washers...vitually no blade play at all, and a comfortable pocket carry. Top notch quality and materials ... blade has an espescially nice finish/polish. Glad I found this brand !

Great knife for the $$.
The nicest sub $100 knife I’ve owned and the materials and quality are top notch

This is a larger size knife that feels great in your hand.The carbon Fiber isn’t slippery but has a nice texture to it and really looks good. Great opening action but not drop shutey. Thumb studs look cool and can fire the blade open fast. Great steel choice, centered perfectly with no blade play. As always WMK got it to me fast. I also bought the Talos from them and love this knife as well. If your looking to buy the Astor or the Talos there isn’t any knife dealer that has a better price then WMK and that 10% off makes the purchase even sweeter! Thanks again Justin and WMK! Dominick
