I got one at China Mart tonight, every one seems to love them and what the hell it was only $20 anyway. Aside from the edge being absolutely piss poor out of the box it seems to be a nice knife, much smaller than my SOG Trident.

Anyhow any y'all have them and how do you like it?

My room mate and cousin both have one. I personally do not care of them, just not my kind of knife. They aren't really above average in any category, so it doesn't bother me. I carry a Benchmade Pardue daily, and that is an excellent knife.

I've been meaning to buy a Benchmade for a while but I think a Buck/Strider is my next purchase.


I didn't figure it was top of line anything but for $20 and so many happy people why not ya know? I doubt I'll use it much anyway. The handle is a little thin for me, feels like I am trying to grip a twig versus a stick but it might be because I'm so use to my SOG which is pretty damn big for a folder.

I carry the M16 LE to work everyday. Has been a good solid knife for me.

I recently got an M18. Feels to be built well and edge is shaving sharp. No complaints here.

I have a few CRKT knives. I have never been disapointed by them. My only wish would be fore a carbon steel blade. All CRKT knives are well made. I always have one close by, keep a couple stashed in my ruck, and medic bag. CRKT has done some good work. For some reason though, my favorite folder is made by Cold Steel: Recon1, could be the weight and the carbon steel blade. I also have favored my SOG Pentagon Elite.

I've had 3 so far. I gave one to my dad, I have one in a drawer because I riped out the pocket clip(why do they ancor them into PLASTIC?) and right now the one that goes everywhere with me is an m16-14z

I like them. My hunting fixed blades are shaving sharp. I carry the Van Snap Lok and the M-16 tanto
