Pint sized EDC
Nice little. Well built knife. If you have bigger size hands it may be a little small to open without nicking your finger now and then. But fits in the pocket nicely

Cool
Love the knife. High quality. Sharp steel. Great gift. Like the high vis color. Easier to find. The assisted opening is very fun and fidgety. A manly small knife. Make sure you are holding the knife tight as when the knife assist opens up it can flip out of your hand and if not wearing shoes…..

Smooth Deployment, but Too Small
This knife has very smoothly deployment. I did not care for how small it was in my hand. It is convenient in your pocket whole clipped, but is hard to remove from a clipped in position and still is too small for me in the end.

Great little knife without breaking the bank
Exactly what I wanted. Just four stars because it wasn’t above and beyond. Bought it as a small utility knife for my motorcycle. Happy to discover in fits in my field book and it’s light enough to forget I have it. Feels sturdy enough for small detailed jobs. I have big hands so there is no way to get any kind of stable grip. Good color and the thumb flipper is a life saver. Easily three finger operable

Small, but Always liked this
I have a couple of these I cycle through... Useful enough for cutting small cordage and scraping; sharpens fairly well. Given its size the assist open lever is a real plus.... I like it well enough, but it is not my fave... I use a mallet and board for cutting cordage; it holds well.... Haven't broken it...yet.
