Chris Collins: The first thing I look for in a folding knife is blade wiggle when open. Another buyer commented that there was no play, this is incorrect. The blades play sideways considerably, if not excessively. Next, the blades are on arrival with a smooth, round, cut nothing edge, absolutely dull. A few strokes on the stone made no difference. It appears that it will take a lot of work on the grinding wheel and whet stone to put an edge on these blades and then we'll have to see if the edge holds. Hard to whet could be a good sign, meaning good lasing edge with use. We'll see.
Update:
After an hour or so of grinding, whetting and honing both blades came to a near razor sharp edge and it held after some whittling. This was done at about 30 degrees, sharpening at 12-15 degrees would have taken forever, the steel is hard and strong. Still 3 stars, the knife should have arrived at ready to use condition.

Aaron: I've owned quite a few barlows the blade is on the softer side but that's good for working knives. And the main clip point blade reminds me a lot of an opinel with how well it slices and is great for food prep. The little pen blade is the stocker of the two and leans itself to harder task like cutting wire. And the handle is the best part with it flaring out it feels very secure and good in the hand. However, the backspring is to weak for heavy work and the knife does not have a half stop. This is the only problem I have with the knife and barlows usually have very stiff backsprings and half stops for safety reasons and longevity of the product this backspring is likely to snap with how weak it is overtime. I wish this knife had a better backspring and half stop it would be a great hard working barlow at an extremely affordable price. But this is a good stocking stuffer for light task like opening letters and boxes given that disadvantage. Overall I would recommend this knife

jorge ulises moreno zamorajorge ulises moreno zamora: Buen filo, la probé con papel y no lo rompe la hoja de papel bond have in corte recto. Buen agarre. El acero aceptable, para cosas pequeñas funciona. Es fácil de guardar. El estuche es solo una caja de carton. Por menos de 7 dólares creo que es un precio justo

Vic Gutiérrez: No es la mejor navaja ni el mejor acero, pero la calidad que obtienes supera al precio pagado. Las cachas de madera lucen muy bien y vienen con un acabado suave, liso, sin astillas. Las hojas son de buen acero, fácil de afilar y que sirven a la perfección para tallar madera, no las usaría para algo mas exigente. Los muelles se sienten fuertes, no son difíciles de abrir pwro mantienen a la hoja abierta en su lugar.

Richard R.: Note: Not a Vine Voice related review. Keeping in mind that this knife is not the only Chinese version of the Barlow knife out there, it has a few features that make it work well for many purposes. The working parts are all stainless steel, including the bolsters, liners, blades, blade pivot pin and springs. The handle pins are brass and the handle scales are tapered wood (wider at the end than near the bolster). When I carve, my hands tend to get sweaty and plain unpolished wood is less slick than plastic or laminated wood. The handle has a brass lined lanyard hole. When closed, the ends of the blades are sunk below the bolsters (if you carve for any length of time this is a plus, since many makers leave the ends of the closed blade well above the handle to dig into your hand and cause blisters). The stainless liners are thicker than most of the other Chinese versions of this pattern. The blade pivot pin is stainless steel of a larger diameter than most versions of this design. Both of these details make for a sturdy knife. The blades come fairly sharp but will need to be honed for carving. The longer blade is good for roughing out a piece, while the small blade works well for...
