After seeing the new incite pics about a month ago i've been stalking it's release and ordered the first batch i could find that hit the USA.
Ended up being Knifecenter and they were sold out within a day or 2, I went with the copper version and will be ordering the gold as well.
The scales are very nice with no voids (i assume the clear resin would take care of any issue like this) due to the unique look of the placement and amount of foil in each scale this is the kind of knife i would LOVE to cherry pick out of a table full of 20 or so.
Personally i wish my clip side scale was the show side on my example
The action is great with a well tuned detent and tight lockup as well as the in hand feel.
Minor Nitpicks:
Not all of the screw/pivot holes are perfect , my pivot hole slightly off center and edges not perfectly clean
Scales show some light mill marks (kinda look like finger prints) mostly noticed around the finger cut out.
I also wonder how the clear resin will hold up to light scratches and scuffs (will it eventually look duller/ milky?)
My blade was slightly off center and loosening to bring it to center introduces a tiny amount of side to side play.

, I recently got a damascus/CF Elementum. The Elementum only cost a hair more than my MD Gent cost me 1-1 1/2 years ago and IMO it’s a much classier “budget gentlemans” type knife. The Chinese damascus blade and shredded CF/copper scales on the Incite are an attractive package for only $100. I may have to try an Incite on for size as well.
