Of every spyderco I have ever owned I loved it. This is the first spyderco I have ever hated. The ball lock makes the knife unusable. I am surprised spyderco let this model leave the factory. Wow. I have purchased 5 separate spyderco models and this is the first time I have ever hated one.
Beautiful knife; terrible lock

The knife is gorgeous and very small: it would have been a perfect gentleman’s knife, but I found it very difficult to disengage the ball bearing locking mechanism, even with two hands. It’s the only Spyderco I’ve ever returned...
Well designed

Even though this knife is small, spyderco did a very good job executing the ergonomics so it fits well in any hand size. It is thin profile and a good edc. Even though it is vg-10 blade steel, I think that fits the knife as I don't think it would be meant for anything that vg-10 cannot handle. The only downside to the knife would be the ball bearing lock. At first and can be difficult to get your finger in there to move it, but after some practice it works nicely.
this knife is great for self defense!

I love this knife. It's great for an edc change up. It's also quite unique but very useful. My only complaint is the use of VG10, but it's not a terrible steel. BladeHQ was also great getting my knife to me in 3 business days.
