On a recent course one of the students had one on their belt. Being a bit of a sucker for a new blade, I asked to hold it. Once it was in my hand I realised there were many many better ways to spend my coins. Couldn't wait to put it down, and the owner also felt some regrets on their purchase. Would not recommend the knife to anyone.

Some of things I noticed.
- felt chunky in the hand
- prominent secondary bevel
- handle was angular rather than curvy
- did not register well in my hand, movement when exerting pressure
- heavy for its size
- don't particularly care for jimping
