SERE 2020 Linerlock A/O AMK2214

Your browser does not support HTML5 video.  I was a little bit skeptical when I first purchased this knife... but WOW! I AM A BELIEVER! It came well packaged and arrived WAY EARLIER than expected! It had weight to it, and when I opened the box, a beautiful presentation box was starring up at me... I could not believe how elegant the box was... and I did not even get to the knife yet! I opened the box to find care instructions and when I removed those, I set my eyes on the prize... at first glance I could tell I was about to be impressed! I took it out of the box and immediately felt the weight; admired the lines, and inspected the meticulous crafting of this fine piece. Then I opened the blade which was as smooth as butter and in an assisted flash it was deployed and firmly locked in place. I own quite a few original Al Mar's including the SERE and this piece strives to be their equal despite being an overseas product from China. Obviously, Al Mar has either sent their knife craftsman to teach the Chinese craftsmen their trade or the chinese have elevated themselves to the Al Mar quality standards one has come to expect from the renowned brand. Either way, BRAVO! WELL DONE!

Looks nice but kind of heavy and hard to close.
