Got mine. Anodizing looks nice, but is not particularly durable (just a fact of life with bright colored Titanium anodizing). Not sure if I like S35VN steel as it seems a bit too easy to sharpen to razor sharp, which generally means IRL it goes duller faster too. We'll see over time. Wish blade were a couple of points harder. IMO handle is too slippery for size of knife, especially as the ball indent for the closed blade is so stiff. Trade off for the handle prettiness, but this big blade is easier to flip out than manually pushing out completely with thumb only, and being slippery, flipping it out doesn't provide a secure feeling. Would prefer a more aggressive handle finish because of this, even if not as pretty. All the grind lines are even and matching on both sides of blade. Centered in handles when closed. Clip seems a bit on the small size for the size of the knife, but no problems staying clipped in pocket yet. No steel insert on locking bar, but as similarly material and size (not price) knives like the Sebenza have never needed it, it's probably not a big deal. Getting a lockup of about 1/3 blade width brand new. Bronze washers. Blade jimping nice and even. Overall very pleased with this purchase and it's quality/price ratio.
