Had to buy this knife to see if what other reviewers had said was true. Sure enough I managed to draw blood from the extremely sharp end of the nail nick (it's more a blood groove). Managed to cure the "problem" with just a few strokes of a small fine file. Other than this issue, it's a quality, sharp little knife. Plus I now have a purple coloured knife to add to my 70+ collection.

Firstly, the size and profile are just what I was looking for and I'm more than happy with that. On the other hand - and as already mentioned in several other reviews - the iend and inner groove of the nail nick are ridiculously sharp and draw blood . A really bad design fault or quality control issue. I have managed to smooth most of the dangerous areas, resulting in scratches to the blade and choir area, but as I bought it to use this is not particularly worrying. Given the choice now I might have considered another make of short bladed knife, but it is what it is. As ever, HH service was second to none.

Thin and so lightweight. The orange colour of this one is not a fluorescent hue, but rather understated. The base of the spine had sharp corners, but a few strokes with a file sorted that, with a thick paper wrap protecting the liners and scales. The action is stout on this sample; two hands are needed to open it. Overall, the construction is very tidy. No gaps of light are visible at the back spring. This pocket knife is small enough to be called cute. Super comfortable in a pocket. Well pleased with this one!

Lovely knife, was a little worried when I read last review about the groove being sharp, mine has the right amount of bite to feel confident in your grip of it but not worried about it hurting my fingers. its on my keys now replacing a very old SAK, review is of the Blue version.
