EDC must have
By WILLIAM H. on Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2020
I waited quite awhile to do this as I wanted to get a feel for how this knife carries and works and the blade steel. So only negative I have, the ONLY one, is opening takes a specific technique to master. Thumb nail is the only really useful technique I have found. It takes time, like anything worth doing, to master and effort. Fit and finish are outstanding, blade shape, steel, edge retention, sharpening are also outstanding. This is a small slim, LIGHT, knife for whatever you need that style of knife for. One thing that must be said is the lock for something so slim is AMAZING. This is how you do a lock for a folder. This! It is a very surprising cutter and penetration is almost effortless either handshake grip or icepick. This knife is extremely well thought out. The pictures clearly show how easily this can be put in a pocket and the clip allows for a pretty deep carry so no one will think anything but a pen. It is even pen sized as shown. What this knife is NOT is a primary EDC self defense weapon. A great backup, yes, primary "oh crap" no. Well worth the money, very well made, great blade design and steel selection. I carry this, along with the blade in the last pic every single day. That blade is also CRKT, an Obake and well worth your time to look into. If you like knives at all, just get this, then practice. For those with base ball glove sized hands, you will not like this at all. I hope this helps.

Great looking knife but...
By xavier valdez on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2019
I was excited when I saw this was finally available for pre order and I waited almost a month for it to finally get to me and well it's not as great as I thought it'd be. The blade wasn't as sharp as I'd hoped it would be but that's not an issue for me since I sharpen my knives, what really annoyed me was how hard it is to open. I've spent a long time seeing it i just needed to break it in and even went so far as to oil it but the thing is so hard to open it's painful to do so single handed especially if you have short nails. I found much more success in smacking it against me wallet with a quick flick of the wrist to get it to open single handed rather than using the thumb stud. I'd try loosening the pivot as well however I don't know if you need a proprietary tool or what but even the smallest tool on my standard star hex key set wasn't small enough to fit. I've had plenty of other crkt knives but this is the only one that's given me trouble which is disappointing since I really wanted to like this knife. Update: I haven't bothered using it since the pocket clip snagged on my couch and bent the clip at the weak point where the holes for the screws are.it snags and bends often but this time I just couldn't bend it back and after a month of waiting on parts requisition from crkt I gave up on it.
