Love this knife. Once broken in, the assisted open, is very smooth. This has become my every day carry knife simply because it is easy to operate single handed, and features a glass breaker on the handle. Being that I spend so much time on the road, this would help me clear the seat belt and escape, if ever in a wreck. Great knife for the money, and Knife Depot is great, so you can't go wrong.
