Klein Tools44000 Lightweight Lockback Knife with Brushed Aluminum Handle, 2-1/4-Inch Drop-Point Blade

Shopped for a long time to find the perfect pocket knife for me. Tried a couple of others, but didn't feel like I have found "the one" until I got this. Easy to open, close with one hand and a little flick. Left or right hand thumb stud. Fits my hand with a good rubberized grip. Sharp.

I got this knife for about $7.50 and it was selling in many other places for $30-45. At the price I got it it was a steal. Depending on your point of view this is a large small knife or a small medium knife. It is a good size for pocket use. It has no clip. I have large hands and can hide it in my clinched fist just barely for size reference. I get a very secure three finger grip on the open knife. The grove to accommodate the opening stud catches my index finger and aids a secure grip. The opening stud works well. It is only on one side but it is held in place by a Phillips #0 screw so it can easily be set to right or left handed. The drop point blade comes very sharp and is well made. It locks very securely with no slop side to side or up and down. The lock mechanism is activated on the back of the handle and is easy to use. The handle is a nylon resin and has a large rubber insert for comfort. The handle has a good no slip design. There is a lanyard hole. I like everything about this very portable pocket knife. I would recommend it and buy it again. And its not made in China. Its made in Japan. It does not come with a pouch.

This is actually one of my go-to knives.... small, light-weight, and always very sharp. a terrific value for all kinds of functions and uses

Seems good quality. I can easily open and close it with one hand and get all 4 fingers on the grippy, rubberized handle. Can't beat it for the price.

Holds a great edge. Was a bit stiff to open at first but has gotten better. Small and light for EDC.

Perfect size, very sturdy (which I've come to expect from Klein Tools). Highly recommended.

This was razor sharp out of the package, no slop/looseness in the well mfg'd blade, and a nicely shaped handle that's thick enough to be comfortable (very) but still do well in your pocket. It's significantly better than Gerber's LST 2, which is not a bad knife, but not as comfy in hand or well made. It's made in Japan, not China, and as a light weight knife I can't think of a better one in it's class, especially at this price. It's a great first knife for your kid as the handle is easy for smaller hands to hold securely, which is why I bought it for mine. I'll probably break down and get another for myself.

Also smaller than regular folding knife

Llegó en el tiempo previsto y en buen estado. Los materiales se ven y sienten de calidad. La navaja es hecha en Japón. Aunque puede ser pequeña (aprox. 15 incluyendo la hoja) es muy útil. Considero que la relación calidad-precio es buena. Dado que requería una navaja muy sencilla de una hoja, ésta ha cumplido con mis espectativas. Estoy feliz con mi producto.
