Nice, a good word for this folder.
Fit and finish is very good, after a short try with the clip it arrived with, I replaced it with a smaller Benchmade clip, the one used on the Bugout folders. For me that works out very well, unfortunately Benchmade won't send that particular clip out, so I actually traded a fellow for his.
Action, while pretty smooth, like most things with time it should smooth out more, so, not being a patient man, I took it apart and very lightly polished the washers and reassembled with some Nano oil and now it opens and closes, fall closes, easily. Also for me I like the flat side of the pivot to be on the presentation side, just cleaner looking to my view, I did the same with CRK folders as well and then they changed.
Blade, well ground and evenly sharpened, arrived paracord popping sharp, again, Nice
The zippered pouch is also well done and nice addition to come with the knife. They included a ketchup packet like of Gun Oil, since I can't reseal it I haven't opened it. But if I ever run out of nano oil, I'll give it a go.
I like adding a bobtail fob to most all my folders, and usually try to tie it around the last standoff, but the edge was too close so I had to resort to the proffered lanyard hole. Here are a few images of mine;

Looking forward to seeing how well the heat treat is on this as the blade is ground down thin, well, fairly thin as I'm getting about .020" or so behind the edge measurements.
