Folding Pocket Knife with 3.74" 5Cr15Mov Steel Blade, EDC Outdoor Slim Survival Knife for Camping, Hiking, Rock Climbing, Fishing

Here again we have another winner; extremely low price, surprisingly good quality. No; this isn't a $500.00 custom, hand-made heirloom, but damn if it isn't just PERFECT for EDC / Self Defense, and a very nice knife in its own right. For ~$11.00, (yes, ELEVEN Dollars!) I'm over the moon with it. What you get for the price is, IMO, unbelievably good. The blade does take a decent bit of force to flip open - which is GOOD; folding knives that are too quick + easy to deploy make me a hair nervous carring them IWB, or even in an active pocket. Particularly considering it is assisted opening, so when it does go, it opens with force. It's smoothed out some with a bit of flipping & quality oil, I'm sure will continue to do so with age / use; it will break in very nicely. I do not believe it is advertised as such, but it definitely feels like an assisted opener. The blade flips out FAST and with authority - consistently. This is absolutely a huge bonus too! Very good. Closing it back up likewise takes a surprising amount of force - which again; I like. You have to be deliberate & thoughtful with this knife, which is always a good thing. I was moving a bit too quick & careless right when I first got it, and this sucker gave me the tiniest little cut with it. Barely 0.25" long and shallow enough to not need anything more serious than a band-aid, but it did need that (I usually leave cuts to air-dry, but this was a bleeder) and enough to get my attention. They say a knife isn'tn truly yours until you cut yourself with it.......well, this one & me are off to a great start. :-) Someone made a comment about not knowing which way to orient it for deployment; there are a couple cues; 1) Biggest one is the pocket clip should be in your palm. If you see the pocket clip when you are holding the knife, you need to flip it to open it.. 2: Next is about a 2" section of the UNsharpened edge / spine of the blade, arcs out from the frame & liners a tiny bit; just about 1 mm, if you look carefully. 3rd is the liner lock itself sticks out about 2mm from the scale. That part should be on your LEFT as you are holding the closed knife in your hand. Pocket clip on back / facing away from you, liner lock & dull edge of blade to your LEFT. You should see more metal on your LEFT than RIGHT when you want to open this knife. There's your correct orientation. :-) I love the blade and its shape; it's not perfectly symmetrical, but at this price, you honestly can't complain. And it's only BARELY off. Only slightly evident if you stare at it carefully. It's more than good enough & otherwise beautiful. Truly wicked sharp out of the box. Absolute needle tip. Very thin blade; this is a fighting / self defense knife, or for very light cutting tasks. I love that the blade has small guards on both sides, and they are pointing down / towards the handle, so if heaven forbid your hand slips, you have a good chance of catching at least partially on one of those. At the very least, they're a good index to feel where you are & someplace to carefully rest a thumb or finger for a touch of leverage / control. The scales are plastic vs. G10 - as correctly advertised - but again; for ~$11.00, I'm definitely not knocking any stars & that's not a reasonable complaint. Besides; they told you in the description. If anything, that counts as a positive because it helps keep this knife so light & won't chew your pockets / clothes like even mildly textured G10 will. You know the struggle... For me, the size is perfect. I have big (larger end of XL, almost 2XL) hands, so it's nice that it actually fills out my hand, feels substantial and gives me something to hold on to. Finally, the pommel is an interesting little U-Shape. Not really a glass breaker, but the metal liners stick out like a half of a mm further than the scales, so If you hit anything or anyone with it, metal is what would make contact. So that's cool. If they made a version of this with a glass breaker.......crap...... I'd probably buy 4 more of them and I don't even know what I'd do with them all. LOL. If this has caught your eye; just buy it. I'm glad I did. It's a very unique design & nice knife at any price, but at around $11 - $13.00??? Absolute steal. Very happy with it.

Very slender good quality for the money

Good

This knife looks really cool. Feels really cool and is awesome. The blade is a bit wobbly, but that’s nothing to worry about it. Also throws great and as well balanced

Very well built for the price

Not bad for a cheapie. Don’t be rough with it, you’ll end up hurt or with a broken knife. I bought this for a specific tast at work in which I needed a thin, long blade for precision and wouldn’t need much force. It works great for this application only. I try to use it for normal use and it is very sketchy.

Love how thin it is. Fits just fine in my pocket without taking too much space. Works nice too.

Nice knife for the price. Fast opening and really sharp out of the box.
