Customers are mixed about the ease of opening the knife. Some mention that the assisted opening function is great, it kicks open very nicely, and makes one-handed opening a breeze.

Compact EDC with just some minor issues
4 Stars
Compact EDC with just some minor issues
I may have just been lucky, but I did not have any of the QC issues faced by some other reviewers. Wasn't covered in oil, no loose screws or misalignment, no impossibly heavy opening action.Mine DOES have a bit of friction at the top end of the action, sometimes resulting in incomplete opening & locking when using just the flipper (and spring 'assist'). I actually expect that the wear-in the more I use it, though, and it works 100% of the time with a slight wrist flip (which I am used to doing with non-assisted knives anyway).Back lock vs liner lock is just something you will get used to, if you actually have a preference. Yes, two-handed closure is necessary (recommended, at least), but it keeps the knife slimmer and it is actually integral to the spring "assist" opening. It is the loaded tension in the lock spring and special curve of the shank that assists the opening.Handle is beautiful and the real wood makes a good grippy feel. It is a good size for EDC, although some with larger hands may find it too small. It effectively 'wears' shorter than it is, especially if you need to choke down on it to get your forefinger on the flipper. Leaves you using mostly finger pressure to hold (rather than palm) and your fingers have to battle the clip for grip since it is nearly as wide as the handle. [See photos]And the clip is the last moan and niggle. There is only one possible orientation (butt-end on left side), so if you prefer point down in your pocket (like I do) or in a left-pocket (sorry south-paws), then you're out of luck. Wonder if SOG can sell a left-hander clip that you can swap yourself since the stock clip is not reversible? But since it also impacts the ability to grip when opening so much, removing the clip completely is an option ... but then it may lose the EDC-ness as many prefer a clip to keep it accessible and out of the bottom of a pocket. Maybe a narrower clip so your fingers can reach the handle itself?

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect
Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2014
This is exactly the size I needed. Perfect for clipping into a hip pocket. Fits especially well in the 5th pocket on a pair of jeans. The wood scales feel really good in the hands. It kicks open very nicely. The clip is very sturdy. It looks great. It has a safety lock for some reason. I guess it could be useful in certain scenarios (small children running around?) but I don't use it. I haven't had a problem with it locking unintentionally.

Stuff that I should maybe take off one star:
1. There's a bit of play in the blade that is noticeable when it is closed. I resolved this by tightening it up. This required loosening it first to break the blue loctite on the threads. Then I carefully tightened and loosened it until, after tweaking it fractions of a millimeter at a time, I got it just right. Now there is minimal play when the blade is closed, it returns to center anyway, and it is not so tight that I notice it when I flick it open.
2. I expected it to be sharper out of the box. I carefully sharped up the edge with a Lansky system. It has gotten only light use, but it doesn't seem to have dulled since I sharpened it.
3. Unless my middle finger is nestled in the pocket clip, it is a little too small and slippery to open one-handed. I have the clip so that it is touched by my middle finger on my right hand, and is easy to open one-handed. But trying it with my left hand is trickier and I have to be much more deliberate and careful.
