DMF

Love everything about it, except it’s hard to close. A little hard on the thumb. Still glad I got it though.

Form, Fit, Function, and (half) Finish

The show side of this knife is stunning. The form of the knife is so friendly for a preferred grip. I have LARGE (xxxl) hands, and it fits my mitt like no other. The function is second to none for its intended uses. With all the good out there, let’s start with opportunity. The non show side of the blade is underwhelming at best. It truly looks like an afterthought. Although stunning enough to be a display piece, that’s not this knives intended use. For $400 plus dollars, it should have a symmetrical level of beauty. The external stop pins provide an excellent spot to easily reverse flick for deployment, and the one sided, deep fuller has amazing function for deployment as well. The only other suggestion that I might add in there is a little jimping on the bottom side of the scales in order to get a better grip when the karambit style grip is chosen. Good knife with the ability to be a Great one, with minor improvements.

Very nice knife. Would love to have had some customization options. Maybe engraving or extra bronze works. That said.. its beautiful and well constructed.
