A friend got one of the popular CKF Evo 3's from the last batch and brought it over today. For my taste, it lives up to the hype. Great ergos (that choil) and a fine action. A guillotine though so watch the digits. Very cool blade.

I guess I owe you an update. Still love this knife. This is my EDC 75-80% of the year with a Benchmade Bugout filling in the remainder. Honestly, you could build a 2-knife collection with those two and not have a use case go unfilled. It’s surprisingly lightweight for its size and with the deep carry clip, goes unnoticed. I wear it with just about everything except suit/dress pants which the Bugout is perfect for. BMs coatings are on point and it’s only showing the faintest wear at the tip where I’ve chipped it off. Cardboard and light batoning to start fires for s’mores only leaves faint scuff marks. I’m absolutely loving the M4 steel as I virtually never sharpen it anymore. Surprisingly, I also never clean or oil it and have had no issues with corrosion. I probably applied Eezox or clp twice since I have owned it. I’m happy!
