I don’t have this one but I have the lil brother, Rubicon. The Carey knives are really well made. Flipping action is good. The are really beautiful. Maybe a bit chunky with that contoured handle for edc use, but doable. Blade is on the thicker side but that helps with good flipping. Never got this one because I already have one similar.
I have one but have only used it to break down some cardboard. The handle is way to skinny and I just can’t get a comfortable purchase on it no matter what I try. As far as the steel PSF27, I love it. Can’t go wrong with the improved version of D2.
Just took delivery last night... It's a quite thin and light knife IMO, with a not quite stainless steel. Initial impressions of the ergos are that the handle is a little small, but I didn't have time/excuse to use it last night. I like everything else GB has done some I'm betting in use/carry it will be a good one, especially for the closeout price.
It's captivated me enough I've watched some reviews. I don't own any liner lock flippers and don't see myself carrying one over my current lineup but for a fidget toy/collectible it looks really enticing at $180. ETA: Especially as the reviews were posted when it was full price.SF Native wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 2:03 pmI don’t have this one but I have the lil brother, Rubicon.

I’m not sure where you’re looking. A few websites had them for $68 and sold out! The SE went quick! I was beat out at one and then I found them at GP and went a little overboard...
Cheapest I saw was $78. If you know of any going for under $70 PM me. I ordered some already but I'll grab a few more for that price.
