Pros & Cons
Pros
The blade deploys fairly smooth and has a satisfying click when locked into place. Deployment on this knife is smooth but takes deliberate action to open. Made in taiwan and very well made in fact. Great introduction knife for someone new to knives.
The edge of the spine has enough angle to strike a fire steel and you can make tinder and feather sticks. Sharpening is easy with my ruixin pro. Run it through a cheap ceramic sharpener every now and then to keep an edge.
The spear point is very useful for everyday tasks. It has a thin profile so it sits in the pocket comfortably. The clip is firm and holds on my pocket flap well!
Black coating on the blade protects the blade from rust. It also makes the blade glide through materials better than the uncoated versions. Great back lock system.
Cons
Poor placement of thumb assist stud makes it difficult to open knife.

Looks nice, but nowhere near as good as something like a crkt squid in the same price bracket.
Other than that, the ergonomics aren't great.
