5 out of 5 Beautiful Knife

I’m very happy with this knife and it feels nice in the hand, I was hesitant at first when I saw the dimensions in the specs, but when I got it in hand I was very pleased because you can get a good four grip on it . I have a real steel metamorph front flipper and it has a narrow handle that caused me alot of problems flipping it unlike the viper novis. This knife is stunning and the fit and finish is spot on!

I was hesitant when I first saw this knife, but I am really pleased that I made the move to get one. It may look a little odd in the pictures, but it is great when you get it in your hand. Super ergonomic. The blade shape is so very usable for everyday tasks. Fabrizio Silvestrelli is my favorite knife maker and designer, and he and Viper did a great job on this one. Fit and finish is very good, materials are first rate, and it is nice to look at as a bonus. You will not regret this purchase should you get one. And as usual Collector Knives is the only place to buy one!
