Well thought out and solid construction. It's a shame that everything affordable is Chinese but that's the way it is i guess. It's very easy to work 'as designed', it is very nice to not have thumb studs grabbing your pocket. The action is fast and it locks solid. When locked the blade is tight. It's not a custom made knife but it is really good for factory built. 'In my opinion'! Others may disagree...

First impression was that the blade detent was way to strong. The blade is not “flickable” without considerable effort. Compounding this is that the placement of the thumb tab on the blade is ergonomically incorrect. The relationship of the tab and pivot does not allow for a straight thumb push motion to deploy the blade. It is more of a sideways and up motion with the thumb which is all wrong. This motion is not intuitive. Compare this with the ergonomics of a RAT I which has thumb studs and flicks so easily and naturally with no foreknowledge or practice. There is no comparison. I wanted to like this knife considering the on-line hype but the ergonomics are all wrong. If a quick deploy doesn’t matter, it’s a fine box cutter.

This is an inexpensive Emerson design, fits well in hand, quality is good. I pulled mine apart and got rid of the factory grease, applied a higher quality lube. Be prepared to sharpen this knife regularly. It sharpens easily enough, but the blade steel just doesn’t hold an edge very long. If Kershaw would upgrade the blade steel, it would be worth paying the difference in price.

Very clean knife so far it's keeping an Edge , feels good in your pocket light weight. The pocket open is very cool easy to get a hang of it. Otherwise the one hand open is very easy the right and left hand clip makes it a versatile for a left or right handed person. Very important for my son he's a lefty overall a great Buy for the price

For the money this knife is a huge value I have recommended this to numerous customers wanting to stay under the 50.00 range and none have been disappointed. Only gripe I have had is with the screws in the pocket clip they need to be blue locktited in or they will back out. Other than that a fantastic knife for the money.
