I honestly wasn't expecting much as I've seen knives at several times this price fall apart. But this tough little folder continues to impress me. The steel seems about equivalent to 420 or so so I don't expect it to remain sharp through heavy use, but it should resharpen quite easily and maintenance should be a breeze. The cleaver design offers a lot of cutting surface yet the tip is still useable as such. The finger post doesn't offer quite enough leverage for me in quick opening, but the hole in the back of the blade is perfectly placed for my ring finger which gives more than enough leverage to overcome the the initial spring pressure and snap open the blade which locks quite positively into place. Honestly, for you cannot do better. Frankly, for + you probably can't do better.Pros:Handy size, blade steel while not an exotic tool steel should be tough enough and be easy to work with to maintain an edge.
Cons:Right side pocket clip only (though is removable), blade has a hint of wobble (though it locks open rather positively), so it may require tightening over time.
