DAMASCUS POCKET EDC KNIFE

This is a great knife! I am not an expert but I do appreciate a quality pocket knife and this is the best one that I have owned. It is sharp out of the box, sharp enough that I had to be cautious handling it. On top of that it is beautiful with the Damascus pattern and hardwood handle. The knife is solid no loose parts and the bearing facilitates smooth yet solid opening, in fact I woke my wife up playing with it in the dark just flicking it open and enjoying the satisfying "CLIKC" of the blade lock which is just right not to stiff but enough to know that the blade is secure. This is an EDC blade for me and size of the blade is just right, enough blade to be functional but not so big as to be bulky clipped to the inside of my front pocket. The weight is also great heavy enough to be solid but not noticeable in my pocket. That brings me to the inset clip which is the only clipped knife that I have that I don't have to pull the clip open with my finger to get it over the lip of my pants or carhart bib pocket and it remains snugly clipped. That is not the best part about the clip when using the knife the clip is literally undetectable to the hand far better than any of my other clipped blades for sure. This blade is a steal for this price I almost want to send them more money out of guilt, Almost, I think I will just buy a few more as gifts for friends and family. The outstanding clip design, finger flick opening and bearing, blade sharpness and knife weight and leather strap make this a great easy to use knife. I find myself looking for opportunities use this beautiful, well made tool. Side note: I did some sharpening and waxed the blade and handle of the knife with food safe wax it all and that really pushed this knife over the top. The tactile feel of the waxed hard wood handle is amazing and the wax protected blade is so sharp that it is almost scary to use and it has held its sharpness with over a week of light use. I definitely recommend this knife.

Background: I enjoy knives. I usually only buy autos, but needed an edc for chores when I don't want to beat my expensive knives up and/or lose them. Also, this was a "few beers in" purchase, that I wouldn't have normally bought. Product: This knife is great, came relatively sharp, was absolutely beautiful, and after cutting plastic and net wrap off 8 bales, has held its edge well. This is very hard on an edge. I sharpened it tonight, and you can shave with it now. One of my favorite features, and biggest beef with the Kershaw Launch series, is the recessed deep carry clip. I have lost/ caught on something, way to many times with my launch knives due to the clip being to flared at the end. This knife is almost flush, but still easily slides into your pocket. My Carhartt bibs are quite a bit thicker, and still works nicely. The wood is nicely done, flipper action is smooth, but not as good as a Civivi, Damascus blade is beautiful, fits my hand nicely, and extremely well thought out carry clip. I have knives that are 5-8 times the price of this one, and this has been one of my favorite surprise knife purchases to date. I will probably order more for presents for friends and family. Overall one of the best bangs for your buck that I have stumbled across.

Love this knife. I’ve had it for quite a while and is still holding up strong. I use it daily and it hasn’t let me down yet.

I normally read reviews but don't write them. It's necessary on this knife. It's a very nice knife, super sharp out of the box. I would give 5 starts, except for one thing. IT IS NOT REAL DAMASCUS STEEL. The Damascus pattern is laser etched. It looks very nice, like I said it's a very nice knife and well built, but it is NOT Damascus.

Very good blade is nice and tight, but flips out smooth and easy. Perfect size to carry daily. The price also didn’t hurt. Wood handle seems to be well made. Overall very functional knife for the price.

Got this for the ole lady and and soon as I opened it right away it had a good quality feel and weight to it, the shell handle looks amazing, opens very smoothly and fast and it’s the perfect size, might buy one for myself

Bought this as a gift after i bought myself one. He absolutely and genuinely loved it!

I like to run my blades for a bit before posting a review. With that being said. I've now had this blade for about 8 months. I will start off with this, the blade is beautiful. True Damascus. The chrome details stand out and really make it look elegant. The texture in the blade sets it apart from others. You can feel the layers of steel. The only thing I am a bit disappointed with is the edge retention. You better know how to sharpen a blade properly because this blade loses it's edge quickly. I sharpen it 2 times a week minimum. It's a general purpose to for me. I'm a contractor so opening boxes cutting boxes and packages. Occasional pencil sharpening. Nothing to demanding but the edge does go quick (I like a sharp blade though, at all times). I hope this is helpful. If you're buying for looks. Best choice. It is beautiful!
