Great knife. Build like a tank. Just remember that they are on the bigger side. They are designed to be a bridge between a folder and a fixed blade. I remember that the first time I handle it I had the same feeling when handling Strider GB: "this is freaking big". And it is... More suitable for belt/sheath carry than pocket carry.

As far as the performance goes: pretty smooth to open, solid lockup, holds the edge. Grip is comfortable and when working with it feels like you have a fixed blade on your hands. Slightly heavy to the rear becasue of the handle construction.

Just on the expensive side.
