CRKT Hissatsu 2907 fixed Blade Experience?

Would any members care to share your experience of ownership, or demonstration impression of this knife? I have always wanted one, purely out of novelty. It looks like an awesome sword style knife. Oddly, Bugei does not sell it. The president of the company apparently designed it, but has not made it a part of the Bugei stock to sell.

Thanks for all replies.

I haven't owned one, but I've played with a few, and was generally pretty "meh" about 'em. I'm much more impressed with the Boker Burnley Kwaiken (middle):

I took off the front top corner of the spine to allow for the tang of the blade to be used as a flipper, it opens fast and smooth with the IKBS. It's new to the market, but is a very solid little knife. I'll be getting CF scales for it soon.

Check out what this guy did to his Kwaiken:

That's what I did to mine as far as the flipper.

Guys, the knife the OP is referring to isn't in the same class as that folding kwaiken.

OP, the knife is ok, the steel is pretty bad (AUS6). It is more of a novelty than a usable tool.

Didn't realize he was talking about the fixed blade.
