Very nice knife with a tanto-style blade. The silver-black color transition looks quite impressive. It's worth noting that the handle is quite simple – it lacks any contouring for the shape of the hand or fingers (this is not necessarily a drawback – some people prefer it that way). The steel seems solid, the handle scales are sturdy, and the mechanism works securely and smoothly. Silver accents add style. One of my favorite knives.

The knife is very nice, it looks even better in person than in the photos. Excellent craftsmanship visible in every detail, smooth mechanism, very sharp and made from good steel. I recommend it to those who are undecided.

I've had it for about 2 weeks, it looks great—an ideal EDC knife to carry every day. It's small, light, you don't feel it in your pocket, and it's solid. My only complaint is that it must have been sharpened at a low grit from the factory, so it lost sharpness quickly.

Beautiful folding tanto. The knife is very elegant, light, with a large blade. In my opinion, it's much better and better designed than the Paladin from the same manufacturer. The only downside is that the bearing in my piece doesn't run smoothly—which is why I'm returning it.

The knife is super sharp, glides through everything, the blade works instantly... cutting with it is pure fun. A downside is the single-position clip, only for right-handers. The blade's appearance commands respect. It's worth having, doesn't get in the way of everyday carrying.

I really like the knife, it looks like a mini katana. The blade is made of solid D2 tool steel, which makes it not afraid of daily tasks. The knife is quite thick, so working with wood is not a problem for it. I recommend it.

The knife looks better than in the photos. After several dozen openings, the knife opens very smoothly, and once fully opened, there is no play at all. Fairly light with a solid blade that tapers from almost the spine into the edge. This is the first tanto profile knife I own. The scales feel warm and have a good grip in hand. The only downside were the sharp edges of the scales near the flipper, which would dig into the fingertip when opening. Gently scraping the edges with another knife solved the problem.
