Man , you can't said 'almost as hard as diamond' .
Ceramic / zirconia has a 8.5 hardness on the MOHS scale while the diamond is rated for 10 , it's considered to be 5 times harder !
It's funny to have it - for 50$-60$ - but it's quite impractical - just cutting paper/vegetables/fruits - It looks awesome though but I would go with a BM SKIRMISH or SPY SAGE II :)
I always thought them Spydercos were so funny looking. I would never spend my money on one though. Gerber and Stone River Gear, and Lone Wolf Paul Defenders.
@xiuxiu1313 not sure what you mean by smooth side of glass but pretty much yes i've had some luck with a technique simulated shaving of the glass,edge forward like your shaving but you must be careful of the cant/angle to not screw-up the stock shaping/configuration,also apiece of fired un-glazed ceramic tile like a paver works for more aggressive edging experiment with one of those cheap ceramic paring knives you always see in cutlery stores try a damp papertowel to stop glass slipping
@xiuxiu1313 if I remember right, the glass "sharpening" thing is just a bridging/stopgap (at least for steel blades). The "blunt" knife becomes (allegedly) sharp(er) for a short time, but needs to get sharpened one way or the other.
Good question! They are extremely hard, hence the great edge, but that also means they are brittle. Definitely not a hard use knife, but exactly how much they can take before breaking? I don't know.
I might buy this model soon...but i will remove that cheesy clip and carry in front pocket.It is only 2.5 ounces right??

I'm looking in my A.G Russell catalog, and this looks exactly, EXACTLY like the Stone River Gear Ceramic Black Titanium Hollow folder.

Really? That's interesting. So do you just slide it on the smooth side like you would a sharpening stone?

@xiuxiu1313 No you sharpen them using a diamond sharpening stone.

Since you own this one....which do you think is a better buy between this and the anti-grav? titanium handle better than carbon fiber?
