It's a well made and very nice looking knife. I have not bought a single knife in the whole of 2019 so i decided to sart 2020 with a couple of traditional pocket knives. Glad I did!

If I can do that this year I'll get this, the one with the thumb nick, not the holey one: www.aliexpress.com/item/4000258391567.htmlOtherwise I've spent small moneys on coins for leather stamping and watch stuff, we'll see what comes next

I've got my Mouse3. It's very well made. Flipping is a bit difficult because with a normal grip you block the locking arm with your middle finger. Once you learn that it's good. The blade is less than .4 mm behind the cutting edge and has a slight sharpening error on my copy, a slight recurve close to the tip. I actually love that error that I don't see on the other buyer's pictures, it's good for push cuts on a surface and when I hold it in my hand to cut around work pieces that I hold in my left hand. I must remember to keep that shape when I resharpen in. I had to remove a mm from the clip's "hump" that catches the seam, not it's perfect. I'm wondering what I'll mod on this knife, added a detent ramp already, maybe I'll add a hole (and grooves) for a lanyard hole.
Anyways, if you're looking for a small work knife, this one is very good imo.
