That is a great price. I love mine. Maybe an overall favorite. I made a few tweaks to mine, but man it is good.
I have 2, one shiny and stock and the other has red micarta scales and a deep patina on the blade, with a clip very much like yours. got that one secondhand when I was trying to decide what to do with the shiny one. Price was right, now I have 2.
Only thing I don't really like is the lock is a little stiff to actuate. That also makes it hard to accidentally unlock, and it's not that hard to unlock, just ergos are kinda meh.

Ergos are such a personal thing. I really like the neutral grip on this. Just a slight one finger groove. I only have one and since grinding down the liner and improving the detent I plan on getting a lot more use out of it. Which means it will probably get some patina. Makes me think of getting a 2nd one just to keep pristine because that blade is one of the best looking blades Spyderco makes.

Absolutely. Those grinds are stunning when shiny and new. It looks good with a patina but I stopped forcing a patina on every M4 blade I owned once I had that in hand. It was just convenient to find an already patinaed, micarta knife that I don't mind getting dirty.
I do find that for carry and use, despite not having a lot of shape to lock into the hand, it feels great for most purposes.
