bicklestiny: Very sharp. Light and easy to use. I can flick it open with hand but have to use both hands to get it closed for now. Once it gets worn in I hope to be able to close it with one hand.
I have not seen any floppiness in the blade connections so far. I really like this little knife.

Barry Hobbs: I misplaced my Case Trapper which left a big hole (figuratively) in my pocket. I try to only buy American made products when I can, so I shopped around for an inexpensive small pocket knife replacement . Now, I have always loved Buck knives, but didn't know they made these little guys. Well, it's not pretty like my Case, but I like the 420HC steel blade and how I don't even know it's in my pocket! However, it does the job I bought it for. I use it for general purposes around the house. Seems like there is always something to be cut. Buck has a killer heat treat process and that brings a fairly ho-hum steel up to the next level! For an $18 American made knife, I'll take this little guy all day. If you care about utility and quality, plus a lifetime warranty, buy one of these little guys!

RAH: This is a fantastic little knife. It is not too big and not too small for my usage needs. This is most likely the cheapest knife I have seen that offers Buck's fantastic BOS heat treated 420HC steel. It holds an edge very well down to about 34 degrees inclusive but I like to try to keep it at 40 degrees inclusive with a convex edge. I have used this knife for light prying when it is all I had and it handled that task very well.

This knife has some light jimping on the back side of the handles, NOT the blade itself. I wish it had a more pronounced finger choil while having a flipping tab but, that's probably asking too much at this price point.

One thing I truly wish Buck would change/add to this knife is a torque screw for blade adjustment and disassembly for cleaning. One little torque screw would make this knife that much better.

This is like the third time I buy this exact knife because unfortunately I keep losing it from time to time. However, I keep coming back to it because I love the size, blade steel, and price point.

Deckard: celui que j'ai reçu n'est pas rouge mais orange... pas grave.
Globalement ce couteau semble moins résistant sur le long terme qu'un bon vieux Buck traditionnel, mais il est aussi plus léger.
la lame est belle et impeccable, de très bonne qualité et le mécanisme d'ouverture à une main est assez sympa, ça demande un peu d'entrainement.
il y a un clip ceinture vissé sur le corps du couteau, c'est pratique et ne gêne pas la manipulation de l'objet.
je ne regrette pas mon achat, voila un couteau qui fait plaisir à utiliser, que l'on égare pas facilement tant il tape à l’œil, pour la tenu du corps dans le temps on verra bien.

Emm Rivers: Viene con un muy buen filo de fábrica y hasta ahorita ha resistido muy bien un uso moderado diario. abriendo cajas, sobres, empaques, etc. La uso como edc y aunque no es la más ergonómica, es bastante ligera y cómoda para cargarla a todos lados, en la descripción menciona las medidad y estas son correctas. es una pequeña navaja muy versátil y como dije, es muy fácil de cargar para todos lados.

Wilhem Gonzalez: Esta confusión de enviarme otra navaja fue lo mejor que me paso, ya que la que me enviaron es al parecer un mejor producto que el que había comprado.

Pros
-Filo excelente de fábrica
-Buena construcción y perfecta para tareas diarias de cortas cartón y plásticos
-Se siente perfectamente en la mano, buen agarre.
-Seguro es bueno en lo que cabe para trabajos de uso diario.

Cons
-Al parecer el acero que utilizan no están bueno
