Just arrived, A LOVELY BEAST!
Initial inspection yielding terrific results. Flipper flips easily - no wrist action required. (Description claims "spring assisted.)Good detent and lockup. No sharp edges at all. A few minor mis-grinding marks along bottom edge of frame at liner lock cutout - no big deal. No dirt, grit or grime. Countersunk screws protrude tiniest bit. Blade is super sharp and has immaculate grind and finish. Blue liner (glossy, probably just painted) exactly matches the (?fake?) blue carbon-appearing inserts (which are high gloss). Beautiful contrast between those colored inserts and the blue aluminum scales. Liner lock slab is a bit thin but perfectly engaged. Zero bladplay in any direction. Blade centering to rear standoof is perfect to my eye. Blade is sharp, but not sharpest - guessing that a few strokes with a fine/extra-fine ceramic rod will finish it. Two-screw pocket clip is too strongly sprung for my tastes and is (ugh!) matte black in color. Double level spine of blade is perfect. 200 grams is claimed and feels about right.
I just absolutely love the look of the perforations from the back of the handle up through the channel in the blade.
