I have a HEST/F America Black Flag, which is an upgrade version of your knife. I don’t like this knife for its flag, per se, but it is an attractive pattern. I like it because it is unique, and checks all my boxes! It is the perfect size for me (I like a range, usually blade length 3”-3.5” and handle length 4”-4.5”), and despite being on the small side, is very sturdy. I did once buy a HEST/F Urban Mr. DP knife with milled titanium and skull graphics on the blade, but it had a fatal defect, terminal lock stick (it actually had a notch in the tang, where it met the lock bar). None of that here! This is a wonderful knife! I would carry it a lot more, but for one thing… the “Emerson Wave” mechanism makes it illegal in Massachusetts. I will continue to enjoy mine (I have 3 HEST/F models) at home, however!

Tank knife I have the Urban Ti love it like you said opening very stiff new
