Pocket Knife for Men - 5Cr15MoV Sharp Folding Blade with Wood Handle - Best Durable Knives for EDC Camping Survival Work Outdoor - Mens Gifts Idea for Dad Husband Boyfriend Stepdad - Silver 97010

I am a big fan of "budget knives." That being said, I accept the reality that many of the "budget knives" I buy on Amazon will end up being little more than eye-candy junk, good for little more than opening or cutting up cardboard shipping boxes or practicing blade sharpening skills. This knife however, surprised me. Here's why it's such a good knife (in my opinion). I have large hands. This is a large one for a pocket knife. It's just under five inches long folded, with a blade that comes to just under 4 inches long when open. A folder with a blade longer than that would be illegal to carry concealed in your pocket in some states. So size is perfect for me. The next thing I love is the weight. This is a noticeably heavier knife than most folding knives this size. I prefer a heavy knife. It opens smoothly and the blade lock-up is good. The shape of the blade is nice and the blade is thicker than the blades on any of my other budget folders. When the blade is open and locked, there is no play or wiggle from side to side or up and down. So far I've feather-sticked with it, sharpened wooden sticks to make tent stakes, demolished numerous heavy duty cardboard boxes, cut paracord and pried some pebbles out of the tread in my auto tires. I'm really liking the durability, looks and quality of this knife. Sharpness is holding up. I touched up the edge when it first arrived, and after several days of use, it is still sufficiently sharp to cut the obligatory paper and shave hair on my forearm (sorry, it's just what guys do to test blade sharpness). Some of my friends are getting one of these for Christmas. There is only one con I noticed: one of the screws holding the wooden inserts on the handle protrudes just enough above the surface of the wood to be a little uncomfortable when squeezing the knife handle. Hey - it was $10. Probably the best quality pocket knife for that price on Amazon, or anywhere else. I'll file down the screw a little and keep going with this knife.

Bought one of these awhile ago to use as a work knife, and bought a new one for a new job. It's a sturdy knife, excellent quality for how much it costs. First one took abuse, including a bullet (hung up a target at the range with it), and it didn't care. You'll definitely get your money's worth. It functions like any spring assisted folding knife. If you can use a pocket knife, then you can use this.

its actually quite a bit larger than i expected, very sturdy and sharp! it also pops in and out very cleanly! overall very much so worth it for the price!

I was VERY pleasantly surprised by this knife. It has great heft, beautiful wood and a nice sharp blade (sharp enough to shave hair off my arm).The spring action is so strong that I dropped the knife the first time I opened it. 😆 It's a little bigger than I expected, but I'm okay with that. Feels good in my hand, very balanced. If you are a woman looking to add a nice, inexpensive knife to your collection, this is one * highly recommend. Also, the pocket clip was easy to attach and the tool, plus an extra screw, was included. I'm super happy with my purchase. Perhaps the seller could advertise that this knife is suitable for women too.

Quality fells top notch, nice looking too

For a $9 knife, its not bad. It loses 2 stars for safety reasons and the direction of the pocket clip. I recommend getting a pouch or sheath of some sort to keep it in because the knife can open inside of your pocket. The spring inside is so strong that if the blade is lifted maybe half an inch in you pocket, it'll pop out nearly half way. If this happens in you pocket, your leg is screwed. The spring is way too powerful. Another thing is the clip. You have to install it upside down. Considering the power of the clip and or the direction of the opening of the knife, the upside down installation of this clip, is dangerous. At least if it had to be installed the opposite direction, gravity could fight the opening of the knife a little bit. The spring is so strong, that if feels like the knife is going to pop back open on its own, after you close it. As far as the sharpness of it... its pretty dull, but if you add some elbow grease to your force, it should work just fine. Again, its $9 😆. Its heavy and feels premium. Just has a design flaw. Get a sheath for it. Until then, dont carry it in your pocket.

Well made for a budget knife. Looks great with all black blade and handle with wood trim. Grip fits well in large hands. The blade is a good size for a small knife...larger than I expected. Keep it in my car door for when I'm on the road and need a knife. I've used it several times already. Great blade, but unlocking the blade to fold it takes more effort than it should, but it doesn't bother me.

Bought for my sons —very good weight, good quality and size
