No one gonna mention the insane stock thickness on this thing? Why is a 2" D2 blade thicker than a PM2? I guarantee that won't slice well.

Wow i got excited for a second ,(at least however long it took me to scroll down from the top photo ) then i saw the clip (not a big problem for me) an instant deal killer for many ,then the blade size 2 inch . Sadily i thought there was finally a company aside Artisan offering D2 for under $50.00 ,oh well nice looking picture anyway.

RudolphIt's great for people who live in places like Boston where you can't have anything over 2.5"
there are more knives available in the 3 inch range than the 2-2.5"
If you are under 18, the limit is 2"
I'm not interested in this knife, but I definitely would be if I didn't have a few that fit the bill already. It's good to see more options in this space.

Images 1, 2, and 6 are the same image. Images 3 and 7 are the same. Would have wanted to see the clip side of the gray version to confirm that the clip color is the same as the retention screws.
Fortunately, other sites confirm a blue clip on the gray versions:

https://www.bladehq.com/item--StatGear-Slinger-EDC-Frame-Lock--92339 Looks like the knife started off as a kickstarter project that recently completed shipping: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/34951038/slinger-pocket-sized-edc-flipper-knife/description Some complaints about the clip, but most like the blade & steel. Putting this on my "I'll think about it" list because its tip-down only.

The clip is not only offensive it is on the wrong end. The idea of a lanyard hole on a folder is so that you can pull the lanyard to pull the knife out of your pocket. I have no idea what a manufacturer is thinking when they put the hole on the opposite end of the knife from where the clip is attached. It results in a lanyard that serves no real purpose to me. Few manufacturers make this mistake but it is glaring on this knife. I will not buy it for that very reason.

Spokes30That is indeed the main function of a lanyard and its related hole in most cases, but there is a secondary purpose for lanyards on some knives that I find to be even more important sometimes, depending on the particular knife. And that's for a lanyard to serve as extra real estate to grip onto when using a knife with a short handle, as I am today with my lil blue Calmigo amigo:

HatuletohI 100% agree with all of the above. Especially the part about the other use of the lanyard. 👊😎

Just my size and loving the aesthetics. Liking the lightening holes and modified sheepsfoot. I can work with D2 and SS frame at this price.
I'd have picked this up if the clip weren't so offensive. Not only is it right-handed tip-down only but it's haphazardly placed partially over the pivot. Even as I try to convince myself it was purposefully placed to capture the pivot insert during disassemble, it's unsightliness outweighs any utilitarian function. And it's made with odd angles that don't follow any of the existing lines.
Hope we get to see a version 2 with corrected deep carry, tip-up clip.
