These are a handy size . Simple to use and tough . Shaving sharp out of the box and easy to resharpen I've four or five of them now between car glove boxes and working jackets . Highly recommended as I work in heavy recovery when I need a knife I need it right there and then and it has to work and not be to expensive to even think about the cost if I have to twist it or hit it with a hammer these knives are perfect for the job.

Easy online purchase with prompt delivery. I and my wife use this knife for gardening and other general purposes for which it is pretty much suited. The knife itself is very good quality with strong build, safe locking mechanism, comfortable grip, a very sharp blade and at a decent price point. Recommended product and retailer.

I work in heavy recovery .. when I reach for a knife I want it to work . Has to be sharp and ready to do every thing I ask of it . Wet oily hands and cutting web straps while wearing gloves can be a pain ... this knife does all that I have ever asked it's stainless so isn't red with rust when I reach for it and it does hold an edge well .. its good in the hand a great size and solidly made also its not too expensive to hit with a hammer if I have to or beat through an alloy trailer roof to get a lift chain through .. i've three of these now . One in each jacket pocket on a tether and one under my car seat .. what better testimony is there . Highly recommended.

Very competent blade, sharp out of the box, it takes hairs off the forearm easily. The grip is very comfortable and, for someone with big hands, feels properly sized and has a slightly soft feel without being uncertain of grip. Lock back is very positive yet easy to unlock unlike some muscle clenching, finger bruising examples i have from other manufacturers. It has no thumb stud but i can open it one handed as long as my fingers are not too cold but inlike some it is not one to one hand without taking notice - the lock back is stiff enough for the blade to give you a cut if you don't pay attention due to the stiff last arc of the blade. For two hand opening it is a breeze either with the thumb groove or just gripping it with two fingers. Comes with a lanyard loop and a lanyard with a clip. My only critique is the clip as it might be secure enough but it doesn't look it and introduces the only cheap feeling part of this deal. Sheathe is of the nylon fabric, split type with elasticated closure and a hard plastic belt loop, no flap over, which holds the folded knife very securely and allows some of the colour of the grip to show through. Feels good on the belt and is nicely unobtrusive. I am a collector of knives and don't always use what i buy but this one has been in hot pursuit of some pruning, wrong season i know, and grafting of root stocks. I am tempted to get one for The Mother Unit too as she is less enamoured of the buck hunter i got her as she finds it too heavy. This is a workman like tool of good weight and quality at a decent price point. Ideal gardening, camping, hunting blade. I would have no worries dressing small game, cutting rope for lashing work and pruning roses etc with this. Thumbs up from me.
