Smith & WessonSW609 8.3in High Carbon S.S. Folding Knife with 3.6in Drop Point Blade and Stonewashed G-10 Handle for Outdoor, Tactical, Survival and EDC

The stonewashed metal along with the khaki handle grip makes this knife stand out from the few other knives that i own. It's a solid knife, well-built with a decent grip (i've got big hands but this fits almost perfectly in my palm), blade comes sharp out of the box. the knife is a little heavy so i've given up the idea of using this as an edc. its not spring assisted, so deploying the blade quickly would require a slight flick of the wrist after pushing the tab. Decent flip knife.

I have owned over 20 pocket knives and have carried all of them. I use and abuse my knives, and this one has held up well.It takes an edge very well, and holds it just as well.The index flipper is a little odd feeling at first, but works very well. This is a key feature I look for on all of my EDC knives. It allows for easy, one handed opening. You can adjust the stiffness of the folding by adjusting the silver bolt that it pivots on.This is my first knife I have owned that has a G10 handle. It had a very unique feeling, and stays in your hand well. I expect no issues with the handle material failing.The overall shape of the knife is rather odd, with random slants. This doesn't take away from the knife in any way.The stone washed material is beautiful. It is probably my favorite cheap knife metal, especially because it does not feel cheap.This knife is comparable to knives that cost $50+ for less than a third of the price.This was originally a Christmas gift from my brother. After using it as my EDC, I loved this knife. However, I lost it after a month. So I got on Amazon, found the exact same knife, and bought it again! It is absolutely worth the second purchase and will continue to be my EDC.

I get it, big brands do branded merch in other countries, but Smith & Wesson is an iconic American brand and didn't expect them to put their brand on an inexpensive Chinese made knife. The knife itself is a bit bigger than the blade I EDC, but the belt clip helps with this size blade (Check your local laws to see if 8.3 inch folding is legal in your area). I was actually surprised at this blade, it has an easy open fin that lets you just flip it open and a solid and easy lock. The blade itself is solid and strong, came sharp, but was able to get it a little sharper, and it held it's edge well. The knife grip is nice, and feels in line with S&W. I was surprised that S&W went to china for this knife, but they know what they are doing, and the result is very underpriced and solid blade.

nice and weighty but hard to open. shape straight from the package.

Excellent and sturdy wild Built knife. Especially for the price.

The media could not be loaded. I used to have this knife several years ago and have been looking to get another. It's an absolutelt outstanding knife! I can't believe it was so cheap here on Amazon. Once you get it, if the action is a little tight, simply oil it and loosen the screw holding the blade by a quarter to a half turn. Very pleased with the quality and happy I was able to find this knife again!

The media could not be loaded. Got this knife at Walmart just because I needed a pocket knife. Now this is my daily carrying knife. I have this knife for a month now and the knife still retained it edges very nice. The knife open and close very easily with just a flick of the wrist. I use this knife for fishing, cans opening, cutting boxes, fillet fish, cutting fruits, etc... The weight of the knife feels good in your hands, and it's very sturdy and not flimsy like other knives I've used in the past. The stone washed blade is beautiful. If you feels like the knife is dull a quick sharpen, will bring the blade back to it original form. I like it so much, I ordered my self another one from Amazon and it's only 20bucks. Very very happy with this knife !!!!

For a sub $20 pocket knife it’s everything it needs to be. Bought it for a daily work knife. Comes sharp out of the box. I rebeveled the edge for a working edge and resharpened it to a polished edge. Easy to sharpen so probably easy to dull but I’m sure it will work fine until lost or stolen. Not a huge loss at under $20.
