I received mine in about 5 days from AG Russell (great price). I love the design and I appreciate the tireless work Doug put into it.

Quibbles:

1) The sheath is extremely loose, it almost doesn't hold on at all. I'm going to soften it up with a hair dryer and try to press fit into a tighter hold.

2) The edge is not particularly sharp. My sharpening skillz aren't that great but I'm going to touch it up with a diamond stone.

3) The knotted cord as a virtual grip extender is cool & functional, but the supplied cord is IMO too stretchy. Once you adjust the knot position to butt up against the base of your fist, the cord stretches & you lose some control. I replaced it with orange 550 cord and made a fatter knot; works great now. Not a big deal, just a tweak.

Again, please don't take this as dumping on the product. I am very grateful to Doug and CRKT for going the distance on this unique tool.
