Decent but lacks some attention to detail
My biggest complaint is that there is not enough thumb cutout on the presentation side for me to easily release the frame lock. I know they are already onto V2, so maybe that is something that has been fixed. Also the the pocket clip was so tight I needed to bend it a bit, and the thumb studs are a little bit too sharp, if it got more pocket time I would expect it to dig a hole through my pants pretty quickly. The price is alright for made in USA though, so I’ll give it 3 stars
