Kizer Feist Pocket Knife, 2.8 Inch Black Stonewashed 154CM Blade Red Denim Micarta Handle EDC Knife with Front Flipper, Small Folding Knives for Men Women, Hunting Knives with Liner Lock, V3499C3

Excellent small EDC, very sharp out of the box, nice smooth action. More of a pen knife than a pocket knife.

A very good knife truely. All functions work flawlessly. The 154cm steel is actually pretty good and holds an edge decently.

Great knife! Kizer gets a A+ in my book. The knife came sharper than any knife I have ever bought, and it is beautiful and sleek.

The Kizer Feist is the knife you carry when you want to feel like a minimalist ninja. With a 2.8-inch 154CM stonewashed blade, it’s small but mean—ready to slice through your day without taking up much real estate in your pocket. This thing is like a Swiss Army knife, but cooler and less likely to have that random corkscrew attachment you’ll never use.The blue denim Micarta handle gives it that "I’m a man of taste" look without being too flashy. It’s got a solid grip that feels like you could open a can of beans in a survival situation—if that ever came up, of course.Now, the action... It’s good, but not the snappy, smooth flick you might expect from some other knives. It’s more like a gentle click when you open it, but hey, it’s still functional. You won’t be flipping it open for fun every five seconds, but when you need it, it gets the job done.Final Verdict: 8/10 – Small, stylish, and practical. The Feist won’t be winning any flicking contests, but it’ll get you through your daily tasks with ease and make you look cool doing it.

The media could not be loaded. *** Buyers beware! Replacement knife has the exact same issue as shown in video. HUGE safety issue ***The knife has a good feel to it. The front flipper is a little strange at first but fun and satisfying once the motion is mastered. The issue I had is with quality control. Unless the blade is really flicked open hard, the blade does not lock. This is a HUGE safety issue. I have a replacement on the way and I trust this is a one off. Still 5 stars on my end and excited to have this one added to my collection. I’m confident this will find its way onto my daily rotation.

Amazing

I ordered this Kizer Feist because hey - you can never have enough tiny front-flippers, which have become my favorite style of EDC (every day carry) knife. I was also intrigued by the "denim" design of the handle.First impressions were perfectly fine. The knife comes with some stickers, spare screws, a nice foldout product card, and a neat, denim carrying case with four slots to carry additional knives - which could be a decent storage option if you have a small collection of knives to hide.The product card boasted of Kizer knives having extremely tight tolerances, and upon handling the knife, it's hard to argue. The action is light and smooth, the denim plates are extremely grippy and absolutely nothing flexes.For a point of comparison, my current EDC knife is a CIVIVI Exarch which retailed for about the same as this Kizer Feist - so I'd call them direct rivals. The Exarch is about 0.3" longer, feels a pinch heavier and features a long, skinny blade - almost like a tanto. The Feist is shorter, fatter and boasts nicer, softer steel (154CM versus D2 on the Exarch).The Exarch also has a taller flip tab (making it easier to open in general, especially with gloves on) and an extra inch of G10 between the grips to protect the sharp side of the blade while it's in the closed position. The Feist, meanwhile, is more "exposed."Another comparative drawback to the Feist is that the denim handles start to change color/texture when exposed to the oil from your fingers. You can see in the photos how it already has a dark blue streak running down the middle just from me handling it for this review. The Exarch's G10 handles, meanwhile, still look brand new - even after a year of EDC use and multiple camping trips.That said, I do think the Feist still has a lot going for it. The denim adds a classy touch, as does the narrow/chrome pocket clip and the classy logos on both sides of the blade.All told, the Feist feels "fancier" than the Exarch - like a "gentleman's knife" that you'd EDC in places where you won't get too dirty. The Exarch, meanwhile, feels more tough, utilitarian and practical - a bit more like a "working man's knife."But both are excellent products with tight tolerances and a fun, front-flipping action. You can't go wrong with either.

Great knife. Mostly sharp. Comfortable to hold and use
