Snake Eye Tactical Everyday Carry Assist Style Folding Pocket Knife EDC (Black)

This folding Karambit is pretty impressive. I gave it a five star review which I rarely do. Part of the reasoning is the extremely low price. It arrived in short order and I checked the edge first off because some reviewers reported sharpness issues. This is a sharp knife. I bought it primarily for personal defense. This knife can slash, pummel or stab. It is spring assisted but this can be good and bad. If opening with the blade notch at the guard you have to keep your fingers clear so you have to hold it with fingers in a pinch grip that is not secure. The solution to this would be to open it using the spring assist and gravity by pinching the blade and snapping the knife downward opening it. This knife is slightly too large to hold securely for me. The knife is reasonably priced, I paid $13.95 and is worth far more than that. I noticed the price fluctuate considerably. If you can look past the serious nature of a weapon like this it is enjoyable to carry and operate. I have a couple of negative observations that might make a difference to a prospective buyer. The claw shape of this blade makes it awkward to use for utilitarian reasons. More so than many other folding knives this knife can injure the user. The finger hole which is integral can slice a finger or skin very easily. Smooth operation came with use so make sure you open the blade a few times to let the oil penetrate the pivot. The blade is not stainless. Taking all this into consideration the knife still worth five stars and I recommend it to others.

Just what I was looking for. Good quality and reasonable pricing

I bought this for my dad for Xmas. It’s a nice box opener and looks good. The design is sleek and comfortable to hold. Cons: the sling lock opening mechanism dose not work at all. Just a simple drop and even going up the stairs it can open in the leg. For its utility purposes it’s strictly a on the shelf box opener. The thickness is about what you would expect. The value for money is awesome it’s a big knife and it does what it needs to do, be sharp and cut stuff.

A fun sturdy knife. I suppose you could use this as a daily carry, although it might look a bit strange. But certainly, it could be very effective in self-defense. To be honest it's also a very cool looking knife. So is an everyday Carrie, a handy knife, for self-defense, or whatever you might want it for, this night will hold up, and get some comments and attention as well.

The best Knives ever.

It is definitely sharp but it does have a setback. The blade will keep opening if not kept in a fired enclosure. You may want a sheath to keep it shut throughout its use.

My son was OBSESSED with this one. It is incredibly sharp, the colors are amazing. It is easy to fold up, compact, and fits his hand perfectly.

For the price this is a steal. I wasn't sure how sturdy it would be due to the low price point but this is actually a really good knife. Mine came very sharp and the easy open and locking mechanism work flawlessly. This is the only pocket knife that you will ever need. It makes opening boxes with fragile items super easy, a straight blade will cut into whatever fragile item the box holds but not the karambit the bend in the blade allows you to open your box without the item being exposed to a sharp blade. This is a strong knife as well I was able to break down a lot of cardboard boxes in a very short time. It is a little difficult to sharpen but at this price point I could just get another one. Which I did. I will say that my 1st knife is still fairly sharp after over a year of use. This is the only pocket knife I will ever carry. My only complaint is that the knife should be held with the tip pointing down and your index finger in the hole however, you have to open it with your index finger and the blade is pointing up. I wish there was a way to open it the way it was intended to be held. I hope I never need to use it as it was intended but opening it and turning it could be a problem if you have only seconds to do it.
