CRKT Snap Lock Everyday Carry Folding Knife with Snap Lock, Gray, 5102N

This is a great little knife for the price. It is small enough to be compact and large enough to be useful at a 2.5 inch blade length, It came shaving sharp from the factory and so far in 4 months worth of light daily use for cutting boxes etc, I have still not had to sharpen it. It fits nicely in a jean pocket and has a super slim profile so you forget its even there except when you need it which I really like. Its super light too which is also nice. Its fun to open and close (making a satisfying "snap" sound) and people notice it both for its unique manner of opening and it's skeletal/steampunkish styling. The large brass bushing inside of the cam gives a nice little pop of color too. If you are looking for a very affordable light duty knife that is both fun, stylish and functional, this is a great option. There is only one con I can find about it, and that is while the blade is locked from side to side play very securely I am not sure of the strength of the pins it pivots on and the flexibility of the frame if you were to bear down really hard on the handle while cutting I suspect you might be able to dislodge the blade from the handle, but it would take some pretty serious pressure which this is not a knife for heavy tasks, so if you break it doing that, you probably should be using a heavy duty knife.

Unique, attractive design. Comfortable to hold. Relatively easy to open with one hand after a little practice. Solid locking mechanism so far. I’ll see how that holds up over time. Perfect for light duty pocket knife needs.

I like CRKT knives. This one was no exception. Best to use the lanyard on the outside of a shirt vs inside, at least for me. But works great and handy, specially if no pockets at the moment. I like the open handle design and have several others with the same feature....

Cool novelty knife. Will add to my collection. Downside is hard to open (takes 2 hands). Good conversation starter. Recommended .

Really slick and lightweight knife. Super sharp from the factory. Takes a bit of getting used to for opening and closing, but is also fun to hand to someone and watch them try! Nice addition to my EDC

Now I don't usually fool with reviewing knives. Pretty basic stuff. But this critter is one of a kind - in a good way. How it is deployed is like no other, and while it takes a bit of practice the effect is truly captivating. I bought one of these many years ago when the design first hit the streets and have purchased any number of them after to have backups as well as giving away to "techie" friends. If you're a gizmo head, you're going to like this unusual knife. For those wondering about if it's a good knife (as opposed to a nifty toy) the answer is yes. Once deployed it's solid with none of that annoying play, it's sharp and holds a decent edge, and is a good carry knife while being something you can fidget with at the same time. The only warning I might offer is that if you have dexterity issues, this might not be the knife for you. But if you like unique designs that depart from run-of-the-mill, you're going to love this one.

Lovely little pocket knife. Wanted something a little lighter than what I used to have and it definitely is. It looks pretty for a skeletonized knife and the locking feels good. It's certainly not for harder use but as a general cutting application it's just fine. Keep it sharp and it'll serve you well. It's interesting locking style makes it look cool to open and attracts some attention from other people.

Great product and works perfectly....very sharp

Sans conteste le plus élégant et original de mes couteaux! Difficile à aiguiser et ne retient pas longtemps son tranchant, à regarder plus qu'à utiliser!

Kein stabiles Werkzeug, aber scharf und toll zum herumspielen

Entregada rápido en perfectas condiciones. Los detalles, el acabado, el sistema de apertura y cierre, la hoja con su aguda punta y cortante filo hacen de esta herramienta un objeto bello y útil. Llevaba tiempo buscando este sistema de apertura, con un poco de práctica se abre y cierra en un instante quedando perfectamente asegurada en ambas posiciones. El tamaño y peso es adecuado, en mano presenta un agarre firme y cómodo. Repito que está muy afilada, no es un juguete. Compra satisfactoria.

Es hermosa. La calidad, el peso, el diseño ...wow ..fue amor a primera vista. Lo único negativo es que no es taaan fácil de abrir y cerrar rápido.... Es super super filosa pero muy hermosa.

Es ist eigentlich zu schade, um es täglich zu tragen. Aber man kann so schön damit spielen...
