Nice hand-filling grip. The stubbly part isn't as aggressive as it appears - it feels quite nice and I wish it was all over the handle. The lower-end jimping is aggressive, but in no way does it hurt - it is much appreciated to help with control and retention. The Grivory material feels tough and strong, but also light and lively. The pivot and locking mechanism are smooth, and the blade is well-centered. The CPM-D2 seems to stay sharp longer than my other knives made with regular D2. This is a lot of great knife for not a lot of money.
The axis lock is smooth and fun to play with but the handle has some jimping near the lower end that makes it very uncomfortable to grip. I am also not a fan of the way grivory feels. I'd highly recommend a Bugout or a Griptilian instead of this knife. Those knives have more customization options as well.
