Closing it is harder than opening it in fact, I need two thumbs to close it. That last 1/4" is a 'bear'.

Funny thing happened while I was getting it out of the white box. I got a couple of tiny paper cuts as I pried the box opened. :doh:

It has surprised me just how much easier it's become to open and that's with less than 30 activations. It's by no-means become effortless for me. I still have to concentrate on my thumb. It's still harder to close than to open but I have managed to do it with one thumb a couple of times.

Showed it to an avid fisherman/hunter neighbor of mine and he exclaimed at just how sharp it was straight from the factory. Said he'd never touched a factory sharpened blade that was that sharp.
