The thumbstuds are bevelled nicely, they provide good purchase with bare hands or gloves. I've always prefered a spear/clip point to a drop point simply due to the very fine point that seems to come easier with this style. It's a great blade shape, extremely usable and has a fantastic fine point. The blade, which is described as a "bayonet" style, I would have called a spearpoint, but that's really just semantics. I wish I had taken some pics of it when it was brand new so you'll have to check out the pics on their site to see it unmarred. The knife opened as smooth as any Chris Reeve or Hinderer I've ever owned or handled (it still does for that matter) and the fit and finish is phenomenal. my initial thoughts back in August left me very impressed.
The production model retains most of the features of these custom works as well as a high level of fit and finish but at a significantly lower price point.
The Dauntless design has been seen before for quite a few years but always as a custom-level knife by many well known and some lesser known makers. The actual manufacturer is currently unknown but is supposedly somebody in the U.S.A. The knife is the Dauntless MK2, designed by Triple Aught Design in San Francisco.
