Cons:

• There is just one concern that some users have experienced with this knife, despite its apparent functionality and performance.

There is friction with the G10 and the pocket clip, and that makes it somewhat tough to secure the knife on your jeans pocket. The best technique to fix this minor issue is by sanding down and removing the part of the G10 that gets in the way.
