Love this knife. Caution it is very sharp. Kinda clunky when closing keep it away from your body. I accidentally dropped it when closing it and it went right through my shorts and cut my thigh deep. The safety stop to keep you from cutting your fingers off works well. Make sure you have a good grip.

It's a hefty tool, giving it a solid, well-built feel right out of the box. The knife seems incredibly durable, and the safety features are excellent—you'd have to be extremely careless to cut yourself while opening or closing it. The sharpness of the blade is also top-notch, cutting through materials with ease. However, there is one drawback: the latch that holds the two folding handles together is very difficult to operate. While it's undeniably secure, I find it extremely hard to unlatch without using some tool to assist. The amount of pressure needed to press open the lock with your thumb is almost too much, which can be frustrating in the field. One other minor gripe is the stonewash finish. It's not a dealbreaker, but I would have chosen a different model if I had known more about the appearance. All in all, it's a well-made knife with some minor usability issues, but its sturdiness and sharpness make up for it.

I love this knife, despite my trip to the hospital. It’s compact, rugged, and sharp. So sharp that right out of the box I cut myself. Note, while closing the knife there is a snag point to keep the knife from closing on your own fingers, good feature, but if you’re not ready for it, it may cause you to drop the knife. Even while sitting cross legged and the knife only falling 6-8 inches it pierced through my foot near my ankle, severing an artery. The knife was so sharp I felt almost no pain, though there may have been some shock involved. I highly recommend the gerber doubledown, just don’t drop it on your own foot.
