Hefty build, quality components, a real connoisseur's knife
To start, I am not an expert on knives and I do not have 100 other knives in the same price range to compare this to. But I do know a great piece of EDC gear when I see it.
Fit and Finish: This knife just oozes quality. The stonewash finish on the blade blends seamlessly with the stonewash titanium grip panel on the locking side. Flip the knife around and the marbled carbon fiber contrasts the blade beautifully. This knife is very fun to hold, pop open, and just look at.
Ergonomics and Carry: I have opted to carry this knife without the clip. It sits at the bottom of my right pant pocket. The lanyard loop assists in retrieving it. I wear a L-XL glove, and in the hand I am able to get 3 fingers on the frame, with the pinky sitting in the space between the grip and the lanyard ball. Both sides of the grip are very smooth, and the serrations on the spine allow some extra control to press the blade forward.
Usage: This blade came sharp enough for me from the factory. It has stayed sharp in my few months of daily, albeit light, use. I find this knife easy to deploy with the flick of a thumb, so long as I use the flat of my nail rather than the tip or pad of the thumb. The blade style is unique, and there do seem to be some use cases where I might prefer a more acute point rather than the rounded belly. I have also shied away from using this blade for prying or other torquing tasks, mostly because I would hate to mar or damage such a beautiful knife. The fact that this knife is designed (and priced) for desk jockeys rather than bushcrafters should be obvious. When it comes to mundane tasks like opening boxes or cutting cigars, this knife will do everything you need.
In summary, I would say this is a compact but beefy EDC knife that pleases the senses and cuts like a razor.

Spudz1984I just added a knot between the bead and the knife to keep the bead from riding up the cord, possibly scratching the knife or itself.

I love it! Bold, tough, beefy. The lanyard is a nice touch.
Only complaint is that it's hard to open. Hoping that will ease up in time. Edit: it has. 11/20/19
Love the scale/titanium scale.

Disappointed
I would like to start this review off saying that I love the look of this night, it is so unique. Unfortunately after only a day of light use the blade began to rust.

Apollo_JusticeYeah that's pretty strange since VG-10 is supposed to be cutlery grade stainless steel, which would suggest you'd need to expose it to really poor conditions in order to get it to rust. Even after jumping in a pool in a cave my Benchmade in 154CM only developed slight surface rust under the scales, but the blade showed no signs of rust which is what you should expect from a stainless steel. More details about what conditions you're using the knife in?

Good
Very sharp out of the box but a little stiff at the beginning, better after few weeks. Love the design, but not the most usable knife for everyday.

Stylish stout little knife
Not the most practical design, but if you're considering this knife, you probably already know that. It's a very cool and standout design. As others have said, the size and location of the thumb studs make opening a little awkward, and the blade is thicker than I prefer on an EDC, but its a great "big little" knife with a solid build and good fit and finish.

Thick and unique shape
My first marbled CF handle. Really like the anodized blue accents as well. Thick and unique shape - sounds familiar? Must be a great penetrator. :)))

Outstanding
I have to admit, I love the Boker Panchenko, and the Voxnaes F3. I love these short fat knives.
But this one tops them all.
beautiful stonewashed VG10, supersharp, perfect centering, no play, smooth action, gorgeous ornamentation with the anodized titanium.
the shredded carbon fiber suits this beautifully.
just an excellent piece, and a real bargain at $99. Would not be unreasonable at $150.
love it
