Query: Smaller than I thought; awkward to open

In retrospect, I should have bought a knife with a 3" blade. Everything about this knife--blade and handle--is just a bit too small for my taste.The blade was super sharp right out of the box.To open the knife is a two-step deal. Use your forefinger on a bump at the base of the blade to open the knife half way; then, use your thumb on the stud to open the rest of the way. You cannot open it using just the thumb/stud method. I find the opening process more awkward than other knives.Seems to be of typical good Gerber quality.
