Overall, pleased with the knife. Very sharp out of the box. The box should come with a warning: “Sharp edge. Handle with care” . Sliced my thumb open wiping some oil off the blade. Has good action. The tang pin cups are a bit too large resulting in loose latch lock-up in the open or closed position. The leather sheath that came with the knife is very nicely made. I would have preferred adjustable/removable pivot pins like what’s pictured rather than the hidden pins. The overall look is cleaner with the hidden pins but I like to be able to adjust the pivots as the pivots tend to loosen up with use and I won’t be able to adjust it as needed. Still, I am very pleased with the knife especially with the fairly quick turn-around time and the price. Any of my nitpicking will be addressed with my next order which I plan on doing soon. Thank you.

This other reviewer said there should be a warning that says handle with care because he got cut.. you bought a knife and need to be warned not to cut yourself?? Kind of goes without saying.
