An excellent yet inexpensive knife, don’t let the price fool you, Properly sharpened, you could perform surgery with it (wouldn’t unless I had to, but you could); edge is exceptional after professional attention (yes, you can shave with it).
Coupled with the extremely low entry fee, this is a great deal.
I buy several, have my local cutlery shop sharpen the f*** out of them directly out of the box, and give them out to friends who don’t have a pocket folder.
Pros: —> INEXPENSIVE AS HELL!
1 - Nice long straight blade with small drop tip (4” CA legal).
2 - Constructed from a ‘tough-enough for long enough’ yet inexpensive steel, which will carry a devestating edge, and is coated for protection from elements/corrosion.
3 - Compact width - Takes up minimal space in the most important dimension. Carry of 2 or more is a breeze. Can be lashed to create a very effective spear tip, laced to a boot, or otherwise creatively concealed for emergencies.
Cons:
1 - Deployment mechanism is not a place much money was spent. It moves without much difficulty, but requires extended deliberate force to unseat from the resting position. Can be snapped into lock after 25-30 degrees of manual deployment.
2 - Deployment thumb tab is well integrated, but too small given the force needed to unseat the blade from rest.
3 - Length, blade thickness & material preclude use in prying. 420HC requires constant attention to keep the blade sharp, as the edge dulls more quickly than tougher steels.
Conclusion: Excellent to stick any & everywhere (no pun intended... or was it?). Never be without a sharp blade again.

A Year Later, Hasn't Let Me Down

This knife is very nice to hold, for reference my hand is about four inches from base of thumb to the other side of my palm. Despite being the cheapest knife I own, this is the knife I use the most. The knife is terrible to open, I commend you if you can open it with one hand as I need both to open this knife. However, the stud makes a great thumb holder when you are actually using this knife. I can easily do complicated cuts with no problem. The knife is also thin and long, making it easy to open letter and even cut open bagels. I got this knife for around $13 and honestly I'd even buy another.

For a ten dollar knife, it's fairly decent. Main issue is the thump button. It's both too small and poorly placed to use effectively to open.

Great knife for $10! the 420HC steel takes a really sharp edge with little effort. Its super light, thin and easy to pocket, even alongside a second knife. Fun to flick open once you get the hang of it. Nylon washers are the only negative I'd give it. But hey $10

Short Review: The knife has a few pitfalls along with some good things. Upon receiving the knife, the first thing I noticed was the difficulty in deploying the blade. The pivot is a little tight and the thumbstud is difficult to gain a purchase due to the thickness of the handle (thick), lack of a cutout (actually there are some cutouts, however in the wrong location) and the close proximity of the stud to the pivot. The second item is the fit and finish. The titanium finish on the handle is blotchy at best. There are some small gaps between the liner and scales. The pocket clip would be better recessed along with shallow screw heads to allow the knife to seat fully into the pocket. On a positive note, all of the above items are negated by the cost. Honestly, what does one expect for $10? The blade is finished well, the grind is not too bad and it's centered in the handle when closed. This knife is well suited as a throw around knife for utility or a inexpensive gift. In summary, it's not bad for the money.

Eh. This knife feels okay, is reasonably sharp, and looks cool. However, the handle feels kind of cheap, the liner lock only engages on the most firm of openings, and it will jam the knife blade open if you are /too/ firm. The opening disk on the blade is difficult to catch from any one-handed angle, and looks/feels more awkward than a stud or hole. Decidedly meh.

It's hard to be disappointed in a knife that's this cheap, but I don't feel this is a very good value. You can get much better pocket knives for this price.
I joined the drop because I like to try out different styles of knives. This looked unique and had an attractive aesthetic. Looks are about all it has.
Factory edge is sharp enough. Blade locks reliably. The colors are awesome. Blade geometry is really cool and the grind is reasonobly consistent. Very strong detent.
The scales don't make this very grippy if moisture is involved, but you have to assume that when buying something with smooth metal scales.
The construction seems okay, but compared to something cheaper like a Senrenmu, this thing utterly fails in fit-and-finish. Lots of rough edges and burrs. The pivot on mine came so tight that it was impossible to open one-handed even though that's what the thumb disc is for. Loosening the pivot enough to make it reasonable to operate with one hand results in side-to-side blade play. The lock sticks pretty hard, but it isn't the worst. The pocket clip does not appear to be made from spring steal, so I imagine it will relax over time if you actually carry it in a pocket.
I think if you wanted to invest a few hours into cleaning up the edges and polishing the friction surfaces in the pivot, you could have a useful tool. But, if your time is valuable, just get a better knife for less money.
I think if I bought this knife 10 years ago, this is a level of quality I wouldn't be surprised by for this price. Compared to Gerbers and cheap Kershaws, this knife is probably not going to disappoint you. Compared to Senrenmus or Ganzos, you'll wish you spent your money on a better cutting tool.

Want a slim pocket beater?

I'll knock this for being a little shit to take apart, or rather i've tried a couple times on separate occasions but it's still resisting my attempts. Play was always present and the edge goes quick with use, but at least it was easy to carry with a low enough pocket print. Would have liked it much better or the stud was further down, as it is it takes practice to open one handed.
