This review is from: Kershaw Ken Onion Boa Serrated Folding Knife with Speed Safe (Sports)

This knife is fantastic. I also have a Kershaw Blur. This knife does not open as fast as the blur. It also does not have a lanyard hole. That's okay for me because I don't use one. Don't get me wrong, it does open fast and very easily, just not quite as fast as the blur. That's about it for the negative points.

This knife feels very sturdy. You can open it with your thumb or index finger. I find the thumb opening to be easier. The index finger opening is helped by a flick of the wrist. It has a safety (which the blur does not). It just feels like it will last forever.

It doesn't have a gritty grip like the blur, but i really doubt you would drop it. The blur felt top-heavy when the blade was out, So I could see why that one would need a more intense grip. But the boa feels very balanced. It feels like you have more control over the knife.

I would say, go ahead and buy this bad boy.
