Ok buy. The shell appears to be defective.

I can't say much about the durability of the blades as I bought them recently but the blade looks decent. Nothing special, but a pretty normal buy for the price. The clip is solid and strong but the scabbard is already showing signs of breakage. Every time I sheathe or remove a blade, it feels like I'm getting closer to the inevitable scabbard crunch. Would I buy again, no. Do I recommend a blade yes, a scabbard no.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • so far so good

A handy little knife for a boot belt!

For the price of its tiny shoe knife bee knee! It has a single-edged bayonet-style blade, so unlike the double-edged dagger, it's legal in almost every state. It's small in my hand compared to most of my other knives, but the handle is comfortable and I can grip it securely. The knife snaps securely into its sheath which comes with a belt/boot clip, but if you wish to use it as a neck knife you will need your own necklace. Beautiful fixed blade that fits anywhere!

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Not good for knives and tools

good little knife. it's not a great knife. I'm sure there are better ones, stronger, prettier, more ergonomic or something like that. It's just a cheap decent shoemaker's knife. maybe even as big as a neck knife. about as good a knife as you can get for $10+ for your purpose. You want the best knife? Then you pay more for a better knife. Want a decent neck knife? It will help. If it had a full tail and a sturdier grip, it would probably be the deal of the century. but instead it's just a niceโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging

Not bad overall

Nice small size. The handle is perfectly formed, the blade bevels are quite well done. A coat. actually pretty good. The knife is inserted safely and easily and will not fall out. The clip is a good springy metal, not plastic. The two halves of the scabbard are riveted with 8 lugs so quite strong and a cord could be threaded through if desired. The main disadvantage is that the cutting edge is poorly sharpened. You might want to tweak it, although it's actually more like a fancy letter openerโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Other

This is a great EDC utility

I find it funny when people complain about the quality of a $10 knife. Guys, that's a $10 knife and this one is just beautiful! It's sharp, beautiful, and small enough for everyday use. I read that a tool complains about the pen size. Do you mean that seriously?! It must be small! And yes, the case is cheap plastic, but you know what - it's very light and works great. I mean read these reviews with a grain of salt. Because apparently there are plenty of toolbags out there who believe theirโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
