ALBATROSS Ebony Wood Damascus Pocket Knife - 7.5" EDC Folding Knife with 71-Layer Steel Blade - Liner Lock Mechanism - Handcrafted Gift Box - HGDK011

This knife is excellent for the price. The blade is very sharp and retains the edge. For a small knife it has good balance and the overall quality is nice.

If your husband loves the outdoors or likes to spend his time at the range, but you don't know what to get him for his Birthday or a special day? Don't look further, this is it! It looks and cuts great. My husband loves it!

Very sharp knife nice grip love the design love the weight good quality a smooth action knife good value for money

The knife is really light weight and feels kinda cheap in the hand compared to the Kershaw I'm used to carrying. It wasn't very sharp out of the box, I tested it on paper and the first cut was kinda jagged and the second one tore the paper. Very rough grind on the edge. I fixed it right up with my worksharp sharpener. The Damascus is real (pattern welded Damascus) you can see the layers on the spine along with the high carbon center core. I don't feel this knife is worth almost $60 right out of the box, but it's ok if you know how to sharpen. Open action is decent for not being spring assisted I don't think it has ever not opened when I have flicked it open. Four stars just cuz it feels cheap to me, that's just my opinion. But still a decent knife.

I am a knife builder, so this review is coming from that perspective.This is a great little knife. I have used it for several months now and it has met or exceeded my expectations. I was looking for a spring assisted opener and the mechanism on this knife works great, quick and smooth. Very solidly built, especially for a mass produced knife.I was also looking for an aesthetically pleasing knife, and this little guy hits all the marks. The blade is beautiful - multilayered "Damascus" steel with a high carbon core that takes and holds a fine edge. The scales are a dark, hard fine-grained wood with a smooth finish, recessed screw holes and consistent tolerances. My only complaint, a wish actually, is that they would offer a variety of scale materials. That being said, however, a handy person could probably switch the scales out with a material of their own choosing if they wanted to. Which I will probably do sometime in the future.

This is a great quality, small knife. It comes in very attractive packaging.

Beautiful knife but their is a bit of a scuff mark on the blade ... not bad enough to send the knife back ... but still !

First, it's a beautiful blade. Sometimes I'll open it just to look at the pattern.The blade, out of package, is very sharp. My coworker had asked to borrow it to cut something, and I thought it was paper or tape, but she used it to cut through cardboard (not really tough, I know) but it cut through like butter and didn't catch as it cut.It is a little on the small side compared to what I've carried before, but not too small.My only complaint is the locking mechanism. It doesn't stick out enough, so trying to close the blade is a little bit of a hassle.Other than that minor complaint, I love this blade.
