Huge fan of Kizer pocketknives, especially the Azo Drop Bear series.
This one was part of an exclusive deal from White Mountain. Spend $250 of other Kizer knives and get this one free. Jumped right on that deal. Bought the Kizer Ti'an Folding Knife Gray Titanium and the
Kizer Coniferous Folding Knife Black Titanium/Micarta Handle knives. Could not be happier with all three.
Love the shape and hand feel of the Drop Bear series. Functional and sharp blades, fast action and the axis lock system is smooth and crisp.

The action on this little knife is really excellent. It's well designed and lightweight, too. My only quibble is that it didn't arrive at its sharpest, which surprised me since it's S35VN and Kizer.

Received knife had a noticeable click on withdrawal of the blade. Spring adjustment or replacement did not resolve the audible click problem. On closer inspection I determined the sound was caused by the axis-lock bar hitting against the steel liners. The only fix would be new liners or possibly a complete replacement knife. Enough said! Beautiful knife otherwise.

Out of the box the action on this knife is mind blowing! Benchmade should contact Kizer on how to properly make a crossbar lock. Only reason I'm not giving the knife 5 stars is because it didn't come that sharp out of box. I hit it with a strop and improved it a lot though.
