The blade comes extremely sharp, holds an edge well and sharpens back up nicely. The thumb stud on the knife is plastic (gotta cut a couple corners to get the price down) and looks cool but functionally is very sub-optimal. Flick the knife open a couple of dozen times and the semi-pointy thumb stud starts feeling like it is digging into your thumb (probably because it is digging into your thumb) and after a day of this I was cursing.
Fortunately, the thumb stud can be removed, and I ended up replacing it with a flatter metal thumb stud from one of my other knives, problem solved.
Apparently SOG didn't spend a great deal of time on 'user acceptance testing' because I've seen this same problem discussed on various forums and the fix would be incredibly easy to implement during the manufacturing process.
If you don't happen to have a spare thumb stud lying around, you could probably remove the original one and carefully grind the 'point' off of it to make it a little less uncomfortable.
I took a photo of the original thumb stud and the replacement thumb stud and posted it to https://imgur.com/a/IkUj7QI.
