Great video again, Jack! I currently EDC the Kershaw Atmos, which has a blade shape very similar to the Entropy, only the blade length is 3 inches, so it's a bit smaller. That is an advantage due to local laws, unfortunately. A 3.25 inch blade wouldn't be legal to carry here. It has NO speedsafe (which is a huge plus in my opinion) but it flies open like a charm, has a deep carry pocket clip (just like the Misdirect), and a CF laminate over the G10 scales which makes it really nice looking. Also available in blue, tan and OD green apart from black. I think the price is around $30, so it is in the budget category. I'm very satisfied with it, but if I had to choose between buying 20 of these or one $600 Chris Reeve Mnandi damascus with CF scales (which is my dream knife) I would go for the Mnandi. :) Budget knives have there place in the collection and everyday use, but getting a high-end knife is something different. Rarely you have to award yourself with those as well. :)
Thanks for the comment and Kershaw pointer. Checked it out. I wish there were more 3" blades for the same reason and every knife should be a low profile deep pocket clip imho. I'll give my opinion on the Budget vs. High end conclusion and GAW video coming soon. The Waypoint Quiet carry just arrived today and at $295 is less than a small CRK Sebenza. So stay tuned for my video on this one. Stay well! Mahalo
Good catch/eye. I switched the clip with the Kershaw Entropy while I EDC'd since I like a low profile in the pocket. *All pocket clips should be deep, without lettering, and low profile imho* Dear makers, I literally pass on buying your knife based on the pocket clip or lack of after market clips.

Did you get the Misdirect from BladeHQ? Seems it isn't a deep clip on the website
