Maybe I'm just dumb and dont know how to get to it, but it doesnt seem reviews can be posted yet. But I've been driving more or less non-stop since yesterday afternoon, and judging by the smell of the particular variety of arid steppe frozen cow pasture I'm now in, I'm midway through Wyoming with 4-5 hours to home (if the storm doesn't close the mountain passes; if that happens, have a nice new year and I'll catch you for the St. Patrick's Day party). I need a little break, so briefly: Outstanding knife. Top-notch almost everything; esp good is the blade deployment/pivot action, and the lock up. Regarding the former: I almost dropped the damn thing the first time I opened the blade as I wasnt expecting anything like the way it came flying out. Part of that is probably because the thumb studs are very accessible; I admit I was initially a little sad that it was not a flipper design, but I am a convert to Mr. Gavac's way of thinking that studs can be as good or better than a flipper. Don't sweat it if your detent is a bit too strong--mine wore in to be just right yesterday before I'd put 100 miles behind me. Lock-up could be used as an example of perfection. As in, take a pic of my knife, hand it out to knife makers, and tell them: make yours like this. The balance of the knife is also exceptional, as it falls directly where the index finger grips, which makes the knife's weight feel even front to back. The only thing so far not way above average is the pocket clip. It's almost too tight to get over my pocket seam; the shape is decent but nothing remarkable, and it rides deep but is not true "deep carry". Not terrible by any means, just not exceptional. I'd better get going as there seems to be a storm on the way, and I have 4-5 hrs and many mountains to get through. Last thing; A++ for the new Massdrop logo design, but was it supposed to be printed upside down on the zip case. I honestly was trying to pronounce 'DOYPS-saw'? 'DERP--so'? when I first saw it. Here are the pics I took yesterday in the car during short break:
