Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The locking mechanism is just the right amount of resistance. The blade also has a very positive open lock with the release on the top of the handle. Opens easy and locks shut & open very solidly.

This has to be the sharpest knife out of the box ever. Fast and easy to sharpen. Holds an edge very well after use cutting open cardboard and using on manila rope regularly.

Gave to my son as a christmas stocking stuffer. Clip is well placed so the knife sits down in the pocket, unexposed.



Cons

The blade on the 288 sent to me was slightly wobbly. It should have a great factory edge, now i have to try to sharpen it. Poor design and low quality locking mechanism.

The fast assisted opening is pointless if you consider that you also have to take time to unlock this style of knife.
