Sal mentioned 'it should open pretty fast'. Don't let that fool you, I played with the proto, it opens -very- fast and it worked -really well- in pakal grip. Sal even showed us a neat opening trick he apparently picked up from Fred Perrin (dang, I just love dropping names like that! :D ). It's a type of gravitational flicking motion, by twisting your forearm with a locked wrist, and keeping your elbow in place. Once I mastered it with this knife, I'll post a video. Look forward to it early 2008!

Looks good except for that horn on top of the scale.Thats was the only part of the Lil Temp that I didn't like.It works fine when the knife is open but gets in the way when it is closed.

I too handled it in Amsterdam an I can tell you it is a very nice knife. Good handle, great action and a very usefull blade shape.
