Love this knife. Appreciate the slim profile and ability to deep pocket carry. Mechanism is originally stiff as expected. Just needed to be worked in order to let the parts set together. I'd avoid using oil for lubrication as it attracts dirt, lint, etc. Blade is a little off center.

I ordered this off the SOG sight without ever having hands on it. I’ve been impressed with other SOG knives recently and figured this compact auto was worth the risk. Super quick shipping to the Midwest; knife was sharp out of the box and feels good in the hand (large glove size, fwiw). For some reason, I had expected it to be a chunky knife and was surprised how thin it is. The action has definitely improved since first opening it. I’ve worked the action quite a bit and oiled it up. I have no problem firing it with just my thumb now, vs. using my thumb and index finger on the safety/xr bar. One thing I instantly noticed is that the blade doesn’t seem to snap open as hard as the assisted Flash that I have. Although, the Flash does have a bigger blade and maybe it has a mass advantage because of it. All things considered, it’s not that big of a deal but I wouldn’t complain if SOG put a stronger spring in it. This knife has been my go to EDC now, replacing other more expensive knives in my collection. No regrets here, I’d buy it again if something happened to it. I’ll probably pick up the full size version at some point too.

This knife is slim and light weight making it an excellent EDC.

I actually preferred the older (no longer made) model as the opening mechanism was better, and the handle was aluminum. I still cherish this new design the only issue is the Belt/Pocket Clip is a little tight, making it difficult to remove the knife from inside a pocket single-handed. I guess that's better than losing the knife, which is what happened to the old one which I had for years. All in all great product, and I was able to add my name to this one.

So. My previous SOG blade is a Stingray, circa sometime long ago, and she is perfect to this day. New EDC this year as I need a clip. This knife if light, sharp, well engineered, everything I expect from SOG based on previous experience …except I failed to note it is an automatic. Illegal in almost every other state than mine, so not going to be my traveling EDC. That said, I love it! (Note: I have purchased SOG blades for many loved ones this year…lol).

I love it so far. It's beautiful, light, compact, solid as hell. The parts don't give at all if you squeeze them tightly.

When I first saw this knife, I knew I wanted one. The perfect size, shape, materials and blade configuration for regular carry, and it is an automatic made in the U.S. The blade activation/lock feature seems brilliant. Has anyone else thought of this? When it arrived it worked and was sharp, but the blade was well off center, openings were sluggish, and it was tough to work the blade open/lock button. After making some adjustments to the handle to realign the blade, oiling and working the open/lock button for 2-3 days it’s become a pretty remarkable knife.

Bought for my husband for his birthday. He loves it! The lever that releases the blade was a little stiff at first but has since got easier to open.

Wonderful pocket knife. Easy to operate even from lock position and very quick to open in any orientation. I’m so glad I ignored the whining reviews. Won’t split atoms but sharp enough to draw blood.

Excellent quality and feel in hand, light to carry yet heavy enough for positive control. I have a larger hand and the size is just right for every day carry and use. Not easy to find a single hand open and close knife with positive lock both open and closed, a must have for me. Highly recommend.
