Just want to throw my .02¢ into the mix. Mine came a couple weeks ago (#0380). Lock stick was initially horrendous. It's since gotten marginally better. It's a very lightweight titanium framelock..I had expected some lockstick, but damn, it's really that bad. The screw are so soft you can't take the knife apart. I've been meaning to contact Boker about getting replacement ones and am currently working on a solution to actually get the knife broken down. It's riding on bearings and needs to be serviced every once and a while..I can already feel the action noticably losing it's smoothness (which was the one good thing this knife had going for it.) Came semi-sharp from the factory with an uneven grind..It has already dulled in my two weeks of light use (cut up a few fruit and broken down several boxes at work). The black coating doesn't belong on this knife..I wanted to stonewashed the PVD and see if I could get a blackwash effect, but that's for sure a no go with the damn screw issue. Pocket clip bent to hell in the first week. Final two points.. Domestic shipping took forever for knives that were already in stock. Second, I bought this knife on the Black Friday (or Cyber Monday..I don't really remember) "Flash Sale." The knife was re-released a couple days later at the exact same price. Come on, Massdrop. I don't think I'll be purchasing anything else from Boker, excluding Tree Brand, unless I've had a chance to handle it in person beforehand. Their QC is as awful as what everyone says.

NoBuddyCaresI had the same problem with the soft screws - 1/3rd of them stripped with the lightest of pressure. Look and weight are great and the steal is nice but not buying Boker again for those QA issues stated above.

BadLuckLazyGuyI like the color, simple clean design, and I thought about getting one.
