  This is a very nice looking knife! The handle is attractive and feels very nice in hand. The blade is somewhat difficult to open but locks firmly in place. This is not a knife that you are going to whip open. The blade was sharp out of the box. Over all this is a very sturdy and attractive knife just don’t plan on getting it open quickly.

  I have a knife with the same handle but different blade.
  
  My blade is a not serrated Tando without coating.
  
  Overall, a good knife for under 20$

  Pros:
  
  The plastic handle (I believe rubberized) is comfortable and provide enough friction.
  
  The handle and the clip provides enough friction to hold it in your pocket.
  
  there’s small finger guard to make you feel safe.
  
  Opens smoothly, unlike other cheap knifes.
  
  Liner lock locks tightly with no front and back motion but there’s some side to side motion.
  
  Pretty good stainless steel – great stain resistance, holds a usable edge.(not razor sharp though)

  Cons:
  
  Fairly complicated to take apart – there’s 10 bolts total including the three for the clip.
  
  Liner lock – it’s not as strong as an fix blade. I used it to baton through wood and the liner lock got over bent, I have to take it apart to fix it. Afterwards, it’s like new.

  I’d give it a 5 star if the lock is strong enough to baton through wood, but hey, it’s not what it’s designed for.

  Piece of advice:
  
  Do not baton with it, use a fix blade instead.
