does open but good anyways

It's not super light, but it opens very fast, and comes very sharp as I would expect from CRKT. I'm always pleased with CRKT but it is true this knife is more prone to opening on it's own depending how you have it clipped or in a bag etc. I've only had it open in a bag once in probably 25 times. When attached to the inside of a pants pocket (not cargo) it has never opened on me, which I wear daily for the last 4 months. When attached to a pack strap or similar it's opened twice. The last thing worth noting is that after heavy use the last 4 months (including repeatedly flicking the knife open out of boredom) the hex screw is getting a little loose. I expected this given the very fast spring assist. I'm content, got off S&C, totally worth it for that price, and the handle fits pretty well even being small. Most importantly it won't close unexpected, for me that's worse than unexpectedly opening, I exhibit way more pressure on the knife when the blades open.
