This knife was as perfect as I could imagine. From the first opening, it was as slick as they come. Quality was excellent. Assembly was perfect, as was blade centering. The knife was so good, it's boring. I'm not fan of (dirt-magnet, soon-to-be-scratchy) ball bearings, but at least they were greased from the factory. Generally they are not!It's slightly on the small side, which surprised me. It's in the mid-size category I guess, but only barely. But because of that, it carries discretely. It has only the essentials. I'm not a fan of flippers or liner-locks, but the ergonomics of the controls on this knife are such that they don't get in your way. However this depends on your hands. I have long, skinny fingers. If you have big hands, this knife may not be for you.Unfortunately it has pocket clip, which I loathe. It least it's a deep pocket clip without multiple bends. And the edges were radiused and polished, but it would probably still stratch the paint on cars.So how pokey, slicey, or choppy is it?Very pokey (for a sheepsfoot profile!), somewhat slicey and not good for chopping.My sharpness scale, from dull to sharp: Wooden Dowel > Butter Knife > Letter Opener > Dollar-Store Razor > Utility-blade Sharp > Usefully Sharp > Dangerously SharpThis knife: Level 1 Letter OpenerComments: Typical grinding-wheel factory sharpening. Sort of annoying, since it's S30V and takes more work to fix. But it was consistent in both angle and edge, from end-to-end.Overall, it's the most well-executed knife I have in my collection.
