ALBATROSS Cool Flipper Axis Lock Opening Folding Pocket Knife with 3" Modern Damascus Steel Blade and 4.25" High Strength FRN Handle, Deep Carry Pocket Clip - Gifts Box FK036DA-BK

I bought this twice, its really nice and I use it daily for bush crafting and as edc

I bought this knife for my girlfriend. She shows cattle and needed something to cut open feed and haybales when I'm not there for her to use my knife. She also doesn't like my heavier knife and doesn't have deep pockets, so I started some research. I'm really into knives so I searched and did a lot of thinking about how she would want a knife. She needed something lightweight, smaller, easy to use, a firm lock, not too flashy, easy to clean, and had a clip for it. This knife checked off all those boxes! She loves her knife and has no complaints about the function, and neither do I. It is an affordable knife that has many good attributes that I would recommend to most. Not to mention how easy it is for me to sharpen, she's not that advanced on knives like I am, so I have to sharpen it from time to time. One of the easiest sharpening jobs i have had to do! she's had it for about a month now and I've just had to sharpen it for the first time after daily use. Summary, great knife, good value, she's happy. Thanks!

Great deal on a very nice pocket knife! I used a very small amount of bike chain lube (rock N roll gold, also on amazon) to help break in and smooth the action. For EDC or light duty the axis lock should be just fine. Very sharp blade, will see how it holds up over time, but should be easy to sharpen. Ergos in hand are great, feels good to hold since its not super thin like some EDCs. At about $15 can't go wrong with this. UPDATE: Still love this knife, especially the ergos in hand. Picked up a damascus version which is very nice, and no need for lube on that one. Will update again after a few months of use.

Great Lil budget beater. Smooth opening and closing. Sharpens easy but dulls quick. It's as good as a sencut or cjrb

PROS: * The action has very little friction, which makes it extremely easy and fast to open/close this knife with the axis lock. It gives a satisfying "shink" sound as it locks open too. I enjoy fidgeting with this knife. * There is ALMOST no play in the lockup. It has a tiny, tiny bit of both up-down and side-to-side play. * The thumb hole is chamfered and smooth, so it won't scratch up your fingernail if you prefer to open it with a thumb flick or middle finger flick. * The steel is fast to sharpen. That's a trade-off because it won't stay sharp as long as some other steels. * The handle has a nice grippy scalloped texture. CONS: * SAFETY ISSUE: There are holes in the handle big enough to put your little finger through. If you accidentally get your finger in there while you flick the knife closed, it will guillotine you. The good news is, if you install the pocket clip on the palm side of the knife, it covers up that hole and keeps your fingers out. But not everyone likes a pocket clip. * The handle had a bit of gray smudge on it out of the box, which I had to clean off. No biggie, but would be nice if it was clean at first impression.

Very sharp and easy to use, ridiculous low price
