chaosmagnetMine was sharp and perfectly centered. And my other Kizers are all well-made.
But it does make an unsettling creaking sound while closing.. might go away with some strategically placed grease. Not sure how the mechanism works.
Also the clip is different than the pictures...it's not curved and attaches to the handle in a different place. I think I like it better this way though.

awkYou're right about the pocket clip. It's straight, centered in the scales, and curved inward towards the scales in the lower third. It's a great pocket clip, better than I think the one in the pictures would be.
Glad yours came out well.

On the plus side, I like the size, ergonomics, weight, scales, and pocket clip a lot. It looks nice, sharpened up easily enough, deploys easily and closes slowly (due to the assist spring) but safely. Jimping is in all the right places and is a nice texture. I haven't tried the glassbreaker yet but it's not catching on my clothes or otherwise causing me problems.
If the knife had come sharp, the TiCN coating wasn't so delicate, the blade was centered and didn't have noticeable play, I'd be very happy with this.
As it is, at this price point, the QC issues are inexcusable. Buying a Kizer knife was an experiment for me, one I won't repeat.
