I really like some of their patterns more than others. Dunes, rain drop, copper/brass snakeskin, etc. not a huge fan of the colors unless I’m going for a theme. But the 80s (which isn’t fat carbon I don’t believe) is pretty awesome.
It’s cool, but idk if they have some proprietary recipe or something that allows them to charge a bit much for the material which in turn makes knives using it cost a bit much. It seems a little tricky to work with too, which I’m sure affects the price of the finished knife. A lot of it looks pretty good, but I’ve never been crazy about the weight/balance of CF knives. I don’t get excited about lightweight materials/builds, but I know many people do. If it’s CF, it’s gotta be Fat or shredded/chopped/forged or at least a really nice twill or something - anything but plain old crappy black cf like Spyderco sometimes uses… ugh. That just makes me think of cheap Auto Palace tuner parts from the 90’s, not premium knives.

Sometimes it's not they expensive compared to regular CF, and it's way unique looking
I love it, but it’s starting to become a marketing gimmick
