Good knife, I was pleasantly surprised at how well the TriAdLock was polished—in other large CS folders I had to polish it myself with fine-grain sandpaper. Because of the blade shape, it has a very intriguing cutting mechanism as the material falls into each successive 'bay' of the blade. It's quite thick just behind the edge, but well sharpened, you can shave, although when processing food it's specific enough that it's better to stick to versions with a more classic blade shape (drop point, clip point, or vaquero). Thick tip, so no worries about it breaking when sticking the knife into something. I think this knife is more for more avid collectors (to be considered after you already have, for example, Clip Point/Drop Point/Vaquero versions), functionally similar to the "Voyager XL Tanto" and another CS knife: "Frenzy".
Cold Steel Kris Voyager Folding Knife AUS-10A
A large, durable, yet lightweight-for-its-size knife from the Voyager series, with a blade profile inspired by Malaysian Kris daggers, characterized by a serpentine, wavy blade. The blade is made of Japanese AUS-10A stainless steel.
AUS-10A stainless steel, hollow grind
The 139 mm long, 3.8 mm thick blade is made of AUS-10A stainless steel, which holds its edge well and is easy to resharpen. The blade features a hollow grind, which, combined with the blade geometry, ensures excellent cutting performance.
double-sided stud, Tri-Ad Lock
The blade features a double-sided thumb stud, which allows you to easily open the knife with either your right or left hand. When open, the blade is locked in place by the Tri-Ad Lock, an advanced version of the Back Lock. Unlike its predecessor, it engages much deeper, and under load, it rests against a pin that limits the blade’s opening, providing additional stability.
Griv-Ex nylon, tip-up clip
The ergonomically contoured handle with a non-slip texture is made of durableand lightweight Griv-Ex glass-nylon composite. The textured surface ensures a secure grip in all conditions. A spring-loaded steel tip-up clip ensures comfortable everyday carry. The set includes an additional clip that can be mounted on the left side of the scales.

I recommend it, but at the price of ~460, paying more than half the price for a slipper is a bit much.
