Got mine today. Build quality is very nice. It's SO light. Action is very smooth, and just about right in terms of the pressure needed to move the blade. The grind, super thick behind the edge. Not great...but it is sharp and will cut. The lockup, is a little bit further along than I would like, but it firm and there is zero blade play.
HOWEVER. I am really very very annoyed and upset by the fact that there is a thumbstud on my knife!!! It makes ZERO sense to put a thumbstud on this knife, it wasn't in the pictures or the description of this knife and as a lefty it is completely useless to me! Part of the reason I ordered this knife was because it had NO thumbstud!! In fact there is no thumbstud on any picture that I can see on any website. Maserin's own website, Knifecenter.com etc. No thunmbstuds!!!
So why is there one now???????

DBSSHey @DBSS -- This is indeed a very odd situation, I know you've been in touch with the vendor and the Massdrop support team. We're trying to figure out why the samples that we received were different - if it was a model change, or there are different SKUs, or what.
Really sorry for the mixup, we definitely never want to misrepresent a product that we offer in photos or text. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention and I want to make sure that you've gotten a satisfactory resolution. Same goes for @theupandcomingcorey and @idoc72 and everyone else who participated in the drop.

JonasHeineman@JonasHeineman according to Maserin they changed the product. To "improve" it. They just apparently didn't tell anyone they were doing that, nor did they update their website info or pictures. IMO the two opening methods don't really work together...but others opinions may differ.
In the meantime, I'm still waiting on a resolution. I'm hoping for some news soon.
Other than the design change, it's a really great knife. Just not what was ordered, and not useful if you are a lefty(like me)
