This is a great knife. the more I carry it the more I love it. I love the shape and size. The only negative I can think of is the way it hits your finger when you push the compression lock and swing it closed. The choil has a low spot that hits your finger and stops before completely closing and you have to make a second effort to close it all the way. With practice you can time it just right and move your finger out of the way but it aggravates me that I have to do that on a$200 knife. Spyderco should come up with an engineering fix for this. Besides that it's an amazing knife and has taken lots of pocket time away from my pm2. It's a big knife so be aware of that but I like that. It's very comfortable in my hand and has a great choil for precision cutting. Even though it's a big knife it's not too heavy and doesn't block your entire pocket. I carry it in pants and shorts. It's one of my favorite knives. At first I didn't like it as much as I did my Benchmade super freek but over time it has changed my mind and now I have a hard time choosing between them when I want to carry a bigger knife. I have yet to own a Spyderco that I don't like though and I own about 7. If you like this knife and can find one,buy it. You will be happy with it and I forgot to mention it is great looking!

The Spyderco Shaman is an excellent knife. It feels great in hand, has great action (after a small break-in period), great lock-up, comes very sharp and feels really solid.

Really the name spyderco says everything about the quality of this tool I've been a spyderco consumer for 30 years since i lived not more than 10 miles from Golden CO. they make a great product,I am particular to the ones made in Golden VS Japan or Taiwan,even those to are quality tools i prefer American manufactured.But whatever you chose you will not be disappointed.

The Spyderco Shaman is a hardy EDC carry item with a stout blade and small profile. Good quality and great feel in the hand. Sturdy enough for completing chores. Clip works well for securing it to your pocket.
