Re: Astute ... Yess !
I very much like the looks of the Astute. Nice clean curves, and it looks like it will carry slim and also have good ergonomics. Should be a winner.
Re: Astute ... Yess !
it kind of reminds me of a more elegant spyderco version of the esee zancudo or rat 2. i know it’s nothing like those, but fits in the same place. i’m going to have to get one of these just because. in stock everywhere but the spyderco site somehow...

Re: Astute ... Yess !
Hoping campsaver gets them in. Had my order in at the last coupon for this and a Rockjumper.
So many knives, so few pockets... :)

Looks like you weren't the only one! It's showing out of stock now. I guess I'm forced to wait now
