Comments:
I love that this knife is under $40 when the custom version runs at least $600. The only thing that differs from the custom is the blade bead blasting isn't exactly the same, but I could also buy a ton more knives with the same money. The framelock does really lock up like a fixed blade and there is no wiggle at all. The deep machined grooves in the G10 can be rough on your hands, but they also offer some great grip. I do like the low profile pocket clip which makes even this giant knife look like a pen in a pants pocket. The blade shape is really cool, although it might not be as practical for an EDC knife, it still slices and stabs well. The serrations make short work of most anything I've thrown at it. The steel could be better, but it's still 440C and holds an edge well. It's not VG-10 but, for $40 it's a great knife. United Cutlery has really stepped up their game with this one.
