Customers find the knife difficult to use. They say it takes more than average thumb force on the thumb peg to get the blade to pop open, it's difficult to get on and off, and it'll be difficult to operate with weak finger tips. The thumb stud is tight and difficult to push on and it requires pushing on both thumb stdents at the same time.

I love the weight and feel of the knife
This has been my EDC knife for about a year now. I made a point to abuse this knife the entire time I've owned it. I've cut everything from paper and cardboard boxes, to tin cans, to wood. It's held up extremely well considering the amount of use and abuse it receives. I love the weight and feel of the knife. It sits low in the pocket and doesn't draw attention. The assisted opening works flawlessly. I've had zero issues and will probably be replacing it with another Zoom when it gets totally beat up. In other words, five starts, will buy again.

Thought I was taking a gamble not buying one of the more expensive brands, but this knife is proving to be a great everyday carry.

PROS:
- Great fit and finish.
- Blade is easy to sharpen and it holds an edge. It was sharp out of the box, but a little touch up and I was able to shave the hair off of my arm
- The assisted opening is incrediblly fast. Have not experienced the issues some of the other reviews mentioned. I am left handed but carry it right handed. I can easily open it with either hand and close it with one hand pressing the spine against my leg. Opening and closing the knife is fun (a little addictive).
- The contours and the jimping are great, promoting a secure grip on the handle.
- The reversible carry clip allows for a discreet carry.
- The safety is easy to engage and disengage, but will not accidentally switch on or off in your pocket.

CONS:
- If you have dry skin, the handle can be a little slick when pulling it from your pocket. A little grip/non-skid tape would help if this is a problem.
- The carry clip is a bit stiff to ensure that the knife stays put in your pocket. Out of the box, I found it difficult to slide over and draw from my jeans pocket. I had to experiment with bending it a little to allow for easier use. I actually bent it too much and had to remove it from the knife to bend it back with some pliers. I eventually got it just right.
- [MINOR] When placing your thumb on the jimping, the safety switch can be annoying (like a tiny rock in your shoe). Slightly adjusting my grip makes this annoyance go away.

Overall very happy and impressed with this knife.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Premium Knife That FEELS Like a Premium Knife

First impression: wow, what a beautiful knife. This is exactly the sort of high-end cutlery that put SOG on the map. As soon as I held this thing, I understood the reason for the premium price point. The fit and finish on the Zoom absolutely scream quality. The "SAT" (SOG Assisted Technology) assisted open mechanism propels the blade out of the handle instantaneously. As other reviewers have noted, the knife feels as if it may jump right out of your hand. It won't, of course; that's just the raw power of SOG's design. There is absolutely no blade play or wiggle to it at all. All the parts of this knife fit flush together like the members of a well-trained military special unit. The aluminum handle and other materials used in this knife's construction convey a reassuring sense of craftsmanship. The ergonomics are just fantastic. The Zoom fits well in the hand and feels good to hold. This knife has a weight and a presence to it that may have seemed missing or lacking from other popular models such as the Trident, Aegis, and Flash II, all of which are perfectly fine and serviceable in their own right. This knife does absolutely feel like a step up the scale, however.

Aesthetically and functionally, the design is unique and does not seem to borrow from other models or manufacturers. The locking mechanisms, both the safety that keeps it closed, as well as the lock on the blade when it's open, have been thoughtfully redesigned from what I've grown used to on other SOG products. The Zoom's locks are straightforward, sensible, and solid. The knife fits smoothly in a pocket and rides well without interfering with pocket contents or manual access thereto. The thumb studs are easy to reach and work quite well for left- or right-handed operation. From the photos on the product page I'd had my doubts about this, but I was relieved to discover there was nothing to worry about. This knife was clearly designed by people who field-test the tools they produce, and it shows. This may well be my new favorite SOG, if not my new favorite knife overall and most certainly my new everyday carry. I have no reservation recommending this knife to any serious professional or outdoor enthusiast.

Ok what about this product and why didn't I give it 5 stars? Well 1st off let me say that the quality of this knife is outstanding SOG is a great brand and they make quality gear; and this knife is no exception. However there are a couple of things that are a bit nagging and some of the previous reviews stated it as well so it's not just me. 1st off the clip is really really tight and very difficult to get on and off...yeah yeah I get it, you can adjust it but that could be a little better. 2nd and probably the most important knock I have is the amount of force it takes to deploy the blade, it seems somewhat sticky and hesitant. Now I have been working with it, opening and closing it over and over and it seems to be getting better but it is a hassle. Otherwise the knife is good and I like it...I just don't love it. I'm sure as I use it more, it will wear in as most things do but right out of the box I expected an SOG product to be more user friendly and ready to go. Oh well, that's my honest feedback. I hope it helps.
