Interstellar Pocket Knife, Black Manual OTF Tanto Blade with Serrations, Blackwash Finish with GFN Handle, Bottle Opener & Deep Pocketclip

Very impressive knife

Fast shipping and well packed along with another item. Easy to operate and excellent price. Tight lock-up and zero rattle when blade is extended or retracted. I love it since there a built-in bias as I love out the front (OTF) knives, sliding like this or gravity. It's a tad bit on the small side but I didn't buy it for that feature. I'm guessing it's not too hard to disassemble for cleaning which will have to be done at some point if you carry it in a pocket. Lint, dust will infiltrate the blade channel but that's what makes them appealing too; getting to maintain your knife! I haven't tried the bottle opener but no doubt it'll work though I rarely have use for the opener. The opener might double as a pry bar, though it is somewhat thick yet tapered. I am absolutely happy with the Kershaw Interstellar!

Overall this knife is well built with a sharp blade. It is much smaller than I hoped and realized. And it isn’t spring assisted like many other OTF knives so as others have mentioned it’s more like a manual open utility blade than a knife you can deploy quickly. The action and movement is too tight for me to deploy single handed, which disappointed me. I want to be able to deploy an EDC knife with one hand if my other hand isn’t available. The good thing about the tight blade is the lock up is extremely tight when the blade is deployed. Unfortunately this also means I must double check that the blade is locked when deployed because it doesn’t lock up smoothly with a solid click like spring loaded OTF knives do. I like the usefulness of a Tanto blade and serrated edge. I know that’s a personal preference I like on all my knives.Instead of using this as an EDC, I find this more useful as a backup knife I can keep in a backpack or small bag for emergency. Or maybe in the center console of my car. It also seems a little pricey for what it actually is (small utility knife).This is fine to leave in the kitchen to cut open Amazon boxes perhaps. But not something I want to carry in my pocket everyday.

My personal favorite blade style is a tanto point with a half serrated blade and this knife provides that plus extra stability with the OTF design function. It comes razor sharp and opens super smooth. Lightweight design and comfortable fit handle makes for an easy to use blade that's a great value for the money.

I have had this knife for a couple of weeks now, and I have been hoping my opinion of it would get better. It's not easy to open, not easy to close, and the bottle opener is just a stupid addition thay serves no purpose other than getting in the way. I like Kershaw, so I really wanted to like this knife. But I regret spending money on it.

Nice sturdy knife. Good sharp blade, edge retention is good. Great mechanism for opening & closing

There are many reviews regarding the plastic push button, that maybe should be metal. Sure 1/2 star for that. But I did not see any reviews for what I consider to be the biggest flaw, and maybe there is a reason beyond my knowledge.But I find it unforgiveable that the clip is on the wrong end of the knife handle. When you unclip this from your pocket and draw it up, you are ready to attack only a bottle cap, because that is the end opposite the clip. If you want to deploy the blade and not open a beer, you need to spin it in your hand, and then push the blade up.Overall it is a nice knife for the money, but self defense is out of the question. It can however be rapidly be deployed on a beer bottle.

i'm not a knife snob or collector, i like spyderco and the rest but just wanted a small utility knife, not a fancy combat self defense knife. i can't find my kershaw appa i got last year, so i got this to use until i find it. it's a little bigger than the appa, but still very small. i've never had an OTF knife, i think it's awesome. feels safer. i had a folder close on my finger cuz i get my finger moved the safety gripping so hard with what i was doing. it didn't feel good. this would just go in. and i disagree with the other review about orientations. point up also makes sense. if the lock failed i don't think you'd want the blade just falling out. and i wouldn't use this for edc, but if you did you just need to adjust your "draw" to have in the right orientation. like pulling a pistol mag vs rifle mag from mag pouch, grip has to be a little different.
