It's made in US, so it should be not as cheap as Chinese stuff.

They're working on a glass-and-metal premium version. But it'll cost a premium price, though.

Yes, the spring on it is too stiff and is hard to operate. But it turns the knife into a sort of gym for hands, and after some time, opening and closing the knife one-handed becomes easy. It's my favorite lock so far (I haven't tried Shark Lock yet) and I like it more than Axis Lock and Compression Lock. I only wish the knife scales were smoother, like on Demko AD-15.

I use the same account at work and at home, so I need to separate bookmarks.

Yes. I sync everything but passwords and bookmarks.

Just drink sigle origin coffee from a good roaster. It's much better.

Unfortunately, the leak is a flop.

I'm disappointed. 4 games out of 8 are with meh rating.

His edge retention "test" shows there's not that much difference, and a $40 knife is ok relatively to the more expensive one. But S30V is one of the main reasons why PM2 is more expensive, and this steel really makes a difference. In my experience, in terms of edge retention, any super steel is much better than a cheaper steel. While AUS8 dulls very fast from light use, CTS XHP, S30V, S35VN, M390 etc. take forever to dull. I have knives I never sharpened because they are still sharp.

P.S. Maybe we should be less serious about this video. But the author told it's not a joke, so I don't know if he's serious or still joking.
