The Harford Armory Chief Armorer's Opinion:
Simply put, this is my every day carry knife. I've been carrying a Kershaw blur for well over a decade a now and I just love it. The blurs have a firm grip, are relatively thin, and open really quick and smoothly. I've abused mine throughout the last 13 years and it's lasted. It's been a reliable tool for all kinds of uses. Like most Kershaws, the clip is reversable so you can carry it up or down. I will only carry knives that clip in the direction I hold them, so there's no fumbling. This knife does not have holes on the opposite side, so it may not be great for carrying on the left-hand side. I got mine before they had blackwash blades like this one, but it's really impressive looking.
