@medz@windraver Yea, but they could have saved at least 0.1 grams by leaving off the carbon fiber stickers that are sandwiched between the steel frame and plastic scales.
This is like a $20 knife at best. Not a great choice unless you consider the Chinesium blade snapping off a “feature,” which I guess it could be if you’re in the business of shivving people in the ribs.
Do I want it anyway? Yes, duh. It’s a knife. But I can’t give you twenty-five bucks for it because I’m saving for a Kizer. Feel free to send me one though, and I’ll write a funny review for it. People seem to like my Casemates lab rat stories enough for them to keep sending me alcohol, so imagine how much of a treat you’d be in for if you sent me a deadly weapon.
Bought this last time it came up (3-4 weeks ago) It’s a great EDC. Still sharp after some gentle use. Very light compared to my last EDC. The deploy is a little stiff but I’m sure it will loosen up.
I got this one last time it was offered. Nice little knife. It’s a bit on the small side for my liking, but I have really big hands. My only real complaint is the end of the knife that the clip is on is a little pointy, making it difficult to clip on your pocket.

Last pocket knife I got was 12 dollars. This is 24 lol.
The other knife also has a window breaker and a seatbelt cutting tool.
@windraver was it a Kershaw sold here about 8 years ago? Because I have the same knife and I love exactly those features you mentioned!
@windraver how heavy is it? This one is carbon fiber and light and comfortable to wear clipped on your pocket despite its size.
@gsrivast it was an albatross edc off Amazon. Apparently it’s even cheaper now at 10 dollars lol
@medz @windraver Carbon fiber decorations don’t actually reduce weight.
@blaineg @windraver metal decorations are heavier, bruv

@blaineg yeah just take those out so pocket lint can get in?

Fun fact: This model was originally called the Zero, but never changed it back after they asked Mike Tyson to be the spokesperson for this model.
@ackage Oof.

I send funny reviews for free products
@ShotgunX I got it last time it was up and I think it’s worth $25 IMHO. It’s a nice, lightweight and pretty solid little knife for the price.
Not too much flex in the blade, not brittle either though. Sharpened it after opening it and its keeping its edge well so far!
My kiddo has a decent collection going and he’s happy with it!
Personally, it’s too small for me though. I EDC a SOG Pentagon XR.

Overall, nice knife, well worth the asking price.
