"Also blade can flip out like a switch blade with a flip of the wrist plus holding the release button."
"One of the best with all of the desired features for long and safe use."
"The design is good, it is easy to use but the blade loses its edge very fast... What is a cutter without its cutting edge ...?"
"I bought this knife when we moved into our new house and it's been great for unpacking all types of boxes and cutting all different materials."
"I needed an easy to grip, durable but sharp blade to cut out foam bits for a costume."
"In a warehouse daily, and having a solid box cutter really helps."

"- These blades seem to last quite a bit longer before needing to be sharpened or replaced. - Besides the cap, it's a very high-quality great craft knife that will last far longer than the generic plastic ones I also own."
"These lights work great for lighting up or driveway and they get a full charge even on cloudy days."
"Nice blade."
"Quite sharp, but after a bit of usage, the blade is a bit loose."
"The master we typed up would need to be turned over and fixed (in the era before Xerox) with out exactos."
"They make special products for picking up vinyl, but for me, nothing works better than this exacto knife."
"works well, but would have preferred something a little bigger and weightier as I I was cutting something quite stiff."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I'm writing not only to praise this knife, but also the company that makes it - and the several other Kershaw folding knives I own and have given as gifts. I've recently changed my pattern of EDC, and wanted to put the pocket clip back on this knife. I emailed KAI to order the part, explaining that it wasn't broken or damaged or defective - I just misplaced it. I got a FAST response by email, telling me they were glad to send me a replacement clip free of charge."
"I've owned many knives and have come to realize I'm becoming less of a fan of serration for an EDC knife but that's a personal preference. I still carry this knife today and I love the fact that when I need a good blade I have this on my person."
"I decided to purchase this knife from Kershaw as a beginner, then I will move on to other brands and types."
"Absolutely worth the money, very durable, stays sharp for months with regular use, scratch resistant, and just small enough that it's legal to carry in my area!"
"My girlfriend's father wanted a "really good" pocket knife for Christmas. So I took the same qualities in that knife and narrowed it down to an all black, spring assisted, half serrated, pocket knife that was in my price range."
"Since the blade on this knife is just a smidge over three inches, depending on where you live, you might need to check your local ordinances on legal carry."
"Many people have asked me what kind of knife to get and Im a knife collector and I always tell them to get this knife first."
"Sharp, strong and light pretty much says it all."

"In fact probable very good for the price, but it doesn't have a tape cutting devise on it so it is to difficult for me."
"I did peel the tape back myself to reveal an even coat of mud on the back side."
"This is a great time saver if you are doing a lot of drywall work."
"Only works with paper tape and needs slightly creamy compound."
"Worked good and lighter than the pro versions I had borrowed in the past."
"It worked fine to tape about 10 joints then the knob fell off along with the guide wheels."
"We voted against the paper tape, and I think that is the only kind of tape you can use with this banjo."

Find Best Price at Amazon"The new full size model with a 7" blade is larger than the 1209 and has the classic stacked leather handle and pinned butt cap. Treated the sheath with Neatsfoot oil and it got darker and more pliant, but still very sturdy with stitching and rivets."
"Anyone who knows anything about knives should be able to sharpen their own knives like they want, not complain about having to take it to a specialist. Stainless is very hard to achieve a good edge on without the proper honing instruments, such as ceramic. I live in New Mexico and have plenty of expierience in the matter. The oils in the leather will make it waterproof and keep most moisture out, plus, everytime you sheath it, you will put a fine coat of oil on the blade."
"I've always wanted a Ka-Bar, and when I found one here for quite a bit less then in stores or other online places I quickly put in my order. No decent knife should come with a razor sharp edge on it, because you are supposed to sharpen it to your preferences."
"I added size 15 O-rings to the handle in between the grooves as mentioned in a previous post and made a big difference in the grip."
"To read a complete review go to [...]. Just received my new KA-BAR USMC Fighting Knife in the mail a day early might I add. Once I opened the box my jaw hit the floor and my eyes started tearing up. Knife came razor sharp out of the box with a fine point tip(I dropped the knife and the point grazed my shin and the point poked my shin right thru my jeans and sliced my shin and blood streamed down, I couldn't believe how sharp it was). Even though I live in the Greater NW and the Kraton handle would probably have been more practicable for wet weather climates, I just had to stick with the Original handle. I will also be purchasing the Ka-Bar Short USMC Fighting Knife with the Tanto Tip. I can't wait to pass this knife down to my Son when he comes of age and then see him pass it to my Grandson when he comes of age."

Find Best Price at Amazon"The Clip is remarkably durable and highly adaptable to preference, making placement on Belt, Boot, or M.O.L.L.E gear an easy task. I see comments like, “Not the Best Collector's Knife,” “Handle is too Short,” “Cut my Leg.” I must encourage the cynics to realize a few things: 1.). The Bottom Line: If one is using this blade for its intended purpose, namely, self defense, I believe it meets all standards and could very well be a life saver."
"A very nice little boot knife."
"Seems to be a really good knife."
"It's a really good knife especially with the price, maybe even underpriced for a knife this good."
"I give it 5 stars because when I got it I felt the zing that makes a knife a good knife."
"Will be a good edc for winter on my boots, came sharp on both sides."
"I like this knife."
"Super sharp and high quality knife but if your going to use this for knife tricks just remember that its super sharp and can probably do major damage."

"One thing - I went through airport security and TOTALLY forgot this was on my keychain because it just blends in with my other keys, and they pulled me and my stuff aside and asked me if I had any knives, etc, etc., and I'm like, uhhh no...!"
"Not enough finger clearance to quickly and safely open and close for daily use. The snap spring closer surprised me when it caused the tip of the blade to come down and nick the side of my index finger while I was trying to hold the key and push the lock release button with my thumb while using my other hand to push the blade close."
"I would like to repeat what others have said regarding being able to see the blade when the key is closed however i feel like you would have to be really looking at it to notice it."
"Also, as a tiny woman without a car key traveling all over the US and world, I have felt safer on any dark walks alone knowing I have at least something small and well-hidden to put between my fingers and strike with."
"I like having mine around and readily available for opening packages, cutting strings off clothing, or gettings those little plastic tags off of merchandise."
"I was intending this just to have a sharper edge to carry around; you know, to help those things that seemingly shouldn't require a knife but do.. Open mail, excessive plastic wrapping etc. What's really amazing about this one is the integrity and the sharpness of the knife."
"Knifes appear to be not SOG."

"I was skeptical about a kit that fits around my waist but after processing a deer for the first time using this kit I realize it was a great purchase."
"For the money, this is a pretty good."
"It's a bit heavy to carry as one piece while walking thru the woods, but my son took several pieces for the walking field dressing, and we used the rest of the kit in preparation for transportation and processing at home."
"I also have a few of their pocket knifes and I tell you these knifes are sharp."
"However based on the weight of all the knives together I will probably only carry the actual knives I will be using in the field."
"Best field dress kit I have ever owned.. highly recommend this kit for any one that hunts."
"As a mother to four boys who are hunters, and having a husband who is a hunter, this butcher set is a "must have"."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I like it have 5 "pockets", you ca put no only the multitool, also you could (in my case): -2 sets of bit drivers, (Leatherman 931014 40-Bit Assortment for Leatherman Bit Drivers) (purchased separately). -1 small flashlight, (Fenix Compact LED Flashlight) (purchased separately). -1 small Sharpie pen, and (purchased separately). -1 SD card or coin (if you want too) (purchased separately). I am uploading some pictures for a better idea."
"When the hook and loop wear out on the new case, I will see how the snap works on the old one and at the same time apply a snap to the new/er one."
"Pros: - The velcro is quicker to close than a snap enclosure. - The design of the belt loops is such that when wearing horizontally, you can thread the belt through the sheath and through a belt loop, essentially locking the sheath in place on your belt so that it doesn't slide between belt loops. Cons: - It's easy to shut the sheath at an angle, leaving a gap at the corner."
"Unfortunately, after several years of toting my New Wave around the elasticated side gusset on that leather pouch has come unstitched and I can't seem to replace the pouch with an identical one. Since I can't source a leather pouch with the "snout hole" in the bottom (for housing the pliers when unfolded) I'll likely be retrofitting my pouch with a snap fastener for peace of mind."
"I got this sheath for my Leatherman Surge, after the sheath that originally came with my Surge stretched out, and no longer held it securely. Not a bad theory, but in practice, over time the elastic gets stretched out to the point, that when you lift the Velcro flap, your tool falls out, unless you are very careful to be sure the sheath is exactly vertical."
"I don't think is gonna last long, I put my wave and feel big and loose, I read bad reviews about the velcro before buy it so I was ready to install a snap button, it took me few minutes, so much better now."
