Darter S - 暗影黑

The jimping on the spine gives my thumb a solid grip even with wet hands, which I didn't expect from such a slim profile. Retention in the sheath is dialed in too, no rattle when I'm moving around. Been carrying it daily for a few weeks now and it just disappears on the belt until I need it.

Carried it appendix-style on a long hike and forgot it was even there until I needed it. The blade's grip texture kept my hand locked in place even after a river crossing soaked everything. For a compact fixed blade, it punches way above its weight class.

Took it out for a weekend of hard use and the blade geometry feels like it was designed with real intent. The Shadow Black finish has held up beautifully through some rough cutting, no complaints there. It sits solid in the hand whether you're doing fine work or needing something more aggressive.
