One of my favorite Spyderco knives. The leaf-shaped blade opens smoothly and the lock engages with an authoritative "snap". No wiggle or play at all once opened. The blade is a unique 3-layered design: a center layer of ZDP-189 bordered by 420J2. The fusion line is visible near the edge and has a cool effect. The blade came hair-popping sharp out of the box and holds that edge quite well. I also found it easy to restore that sharpness using the Sharpmaker and some fine/ultrafine rods. The handle consists of skeletonized steel liners with carbon fiber scales. The scales have a smooth matte finish that, while smooth, still offers a solid grip. The whole knife is riveted together, save for the pivot screw which uses a hex key. Ergonomics is superb and one-handed opening and closing are quite easy. The pocket clip is a one-piece steel wire that allows for ambidextrous deep carry, tip-up. I like this clip design because I often carry this knife when I want to have a dressier appearance, and don't want to have the tip of the handle peeking out from above the pocket. The wire itself is unobtrusive, yet provides good retention. If you're looking for ZDP steel in a package that performs as well as it looks, this one is a good choice.
