Review: Surprisingly useful for everyday carry - When I bought this knife, I was working on packaging equipment. I had to test the machines and that inevitably meant breaking down a lot of cardboard and shrink wrap when testing was done. I bought this knife for a couple of reasons. I wanted a hawkbill blade with a reverse curve and a sharp point so that I could pierce the cardboard boxes and then run the knife down the length of the box without it slipping out. This doesn't seem like a big deal, but try breaking down a few hundred cartons a day. As your grip fatigues, you'll appreciate that curve in the blade. That finger loop in the end also helps with this, as you don't have to worry about dropping it if your grip loosens. Cardboard is abrasive as heck, and I wanted a blade made from a relatively tough steel that would hold an edge. There are knife experts out there that will quote you chapter and verse on different alloys, but I'm not one of them. All I knew was that this knife had a decent reputation for holding an edge based on the reviews. The liner lock mechanism that keeps the blade from folding closed looked strong, and overall the knife looked like it would be robust. Appearances were not deceiving, either. When I got the package I looked the knife over and was impressed. It felt quite solid and the blade locked into place with no play. It certainly felt durable, but time would tell. I like to hone my blades on an MDF wheel with fine polishing compound. This gives a very keep edge that will actually shave arm hairs. Is this necessary? Nope. Is it cool? Yup. I was able to sharpen this knife to a very sharp edge with no trouble. Overall, this knife worked well to cut cardboard boxes and other packages down. However, after a few days I punted and switched over to a Milwaukee Fastback with replaceable utility knife blades for this task. Why? Because I like this knife too much to put it through that level of abuse. At the time, this knife cost less than $18 delivered to my door. I figured that if it lasted a year cutting boxes I'd have gotten my money's worth out of it. But this is WAY nicer than a typical $18 knife, and I just couldn't see myself sharpening it to death just so I could cut cardboard with it. In the meantime, I found utility knife blades with a carbide edge, which will out-cut typical steel blades by quite a margin. Those blades, plus the Milwaukee knife, were a winning combo for the abuse that cardboard could dish out. Since then, I stopped working on that type of equipment and this knife has been semi-retired. I typically keep it around for outdoor treks, where I might want something more robust than the Milwaukee that I still carry daily. Mostly it sits around, but that's certainly not a fault of the knife. It's a really nice piece of equipment that served its purpose well, and I'm glad I have it in case I want to cut fuzz-sticks to use as campfire kindling, split a small piece of wood, cut rope, whatever. This knife is made by Smith and Wesson and marketed as a tactical blade. However, I think this would make an excellent camp/field knife, and I'll test it out next time I go camping (accompanied by a full-tang fixed-blade knife to do the heavy lifting, of course). For the price, this could be a great addition to someone's camping kit. Review: Big, built like a tank, and razor-sharp out of the box - This is a big, heavy, sturdy, well-made knife that feels far more high-quality than its price point would suggest. it also comes from the factory ridiculously sharp (always a good thing). The ambidextrous thumb stud opening works really well, and the body of the knife has a good, grippy texture. This is my first karambit-style knife, and I'm totally sold on that design if only for how well it works for breaking down cardboard quickly and safely. Its size and weight are a positive when using it, but a drawback as an everyday-carry knife, as it takes up a lot of pocket space and you'll know it's in there the whole time. Probably not the one you're tossing in your pocket for a day at the office or a trip to the mall. I threw in a photo comparing it to a more typical EDC folding knife just to provide a frame of reference. Bottom line: well-made and practical, and a steal at the asking price. ## Features - DIMENSIONS: 8 inch (20.3 cm) overall length with a blade length of 3 inches (7.6 cm) and a weight of 4.7 ounces - DURABLE: Blade is made of reliable 7Cr17MoV High Carbon Stainless Steel with a black camo, titanium coated stainless steel handle - DEPENDABLE: Quick and easy access with the convenient pocket clip and ambidextrous thumb hole making it ideal for everyday carry - SECURE: Have confidence that the blade will not slip with the security of the liner lock - BE PREPARED: Knife features spine jimping - GUARANTEED: This product is covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

For me, it isn't. However, one will have to figure out to best access this blade. For twenty bucks, I think it's decent as an edc blade. Mine came pretty sharp and the lock up seems solid. For me, it will be a edc/defensive blade and the blade length will likely be legal in most places, so that's something it has going for it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Smith & Wesson Extreme Ops CK32C 8in S.S.
