Brief review of this JE Made Lanny's clip folder, fit and finish are very well done. Blade grind is uniform and I was glad to see that the thickness behind the edge was not as thick as I had hear others make mention of. Mine measures about .020" which isn't razor thinness but still cutting well.
Closed it measure just over 3 3/4"
with an S35vn blade length of 3 1/8" long and a smidge over 2mm thick at the spine

I haven't made a sheath yet, as it just arrived, but JE Made provides a zippered pouch with belt loops, but to keep the knife secure during carry, I added a small lanyard that you slip up and behind your belt so that the knot prevents it from slipping down until you pull it and open the pouch.

Now the pull on the blade is QUITE strong, I would say an 8 or 9 and I pinch it open not using my thumb nail. But that does provide a solid working knife once open. And there is a half stop as well and the back spring is flush in all three positions. Nicely done!
