A nice knife with an unusual look. Very well made. The blade does not wobble. The handle fits four fingers of a hand slightly larger than average. The scales feel pleasant to the touch, sort of smooth-rough. The action is smooth, although sometimes it may lack momentum near the end of opening. It is hard to open with the middle finger, easier with the index finger. It is also hard to catch with the thumb; a slow roll is rather only possible after an initial opening with the thumb and middle finger. The flip is flawless. Releasing the lock is OK.

Bestech Knives Platypus Folding Knife - Grey
Folding EDC (Every Day Carry) knife with a Sheepfoot profile blade designed for daily tasks and outdoor activities. The blade is made of high-carbon D2 tool steel.
D2 tool steel, Stonewash finish
The blade with a thickness of 3.5 mm is made from high-carbon D2 tool steel known for its excellent abrasion, chipping, and impact resistance. Due to its high carbon content, it is classified as semi-stainless steel. The blade is finished with the Stonewash method, giving it a satin effect. The steel is hardened to a hardness of 59-61 HRC.
notch in the blade, ceramic bearing, Liner-Lock
The blade opens using a wide notch in the blade or a flipper. The opening process is very smooth thanks to the use of ceramic bearings. User safety is ensured by the classic Liner-Lock mechanism.
G10 laminate handle, tip-up clip
The handle with a non-slip texture is made of G10 laminate. Convenient daily carry is ensured by a resilient clip made of stainless steel, designed for tip-up right carry on the handle, allowing the knife to be clipped to a belt or pocket edge. The rear part of the handle has a hole through which you can thread a lanyard to secure the tool from being lost, a leash, or a keychain.
