great knife, but the hole only fits some biners.
holds an edge and is easy to clean dirt out of the handle.
worth the 15$

WOW, Light easy to clip, great price.
I like the groves in the spine for pinch clipping.
I would like to see a "hooded" nose version in the future.

Like the notchless bolt end and the rubber webbing protector hold the rope biner in place.
however the rope end biner fell short of my expectations. I swapped them all for wire gates and use them to rack. a slightly more curved option would be a HUGE improvment.
Overall very please but I have been spoiled with my wire gates.

Love the shape and the slight down turned last the stiffer toe box edges like a dream, the rubber is super sticky but Im waiting to see if it will last. the velcro closures are great also. they are opposed and provide a tight fit as well as being covered in this grippy "rhino hide" stuff to help when toe hooking.
a fight to get into...but worth it.

Very comfortable velcro shoe. Love the sensitivity and smearing preformance.
Wouldnt reccomend for a first shoe due to the flexability in the forefoot. once foot work has advanced these shoes are a dream.
Didnt get a 5 because 5.10 less than ideal construction.
