Pros This little poker (I just can't bring myself to call it a knife) is perfect for neck-wear
Delivered on time as described. Pros This little poker (I just can't bring myself to call it a knife) is perfect for neck-wear. Doesn't print at all, light and is very comfortable to wear. Double sided blade. Can be used as a spear point (the main reason I bought it) A passable bottle opener (just barely) Great plastic sheath and metal chain. Knife fits very snug, no worries carrying it point up. It does rattle a little when shaken but most knives with plastic sheaths do. Can be used as last ditch self-defense weapon. Great for opening letters, boxes etc. Might be able to throw it but have not tried that yet (too light probably) Cons The blades have no edge, I mean nada, zip. You can not even cut cold butter with this! I tried! You end up with a mashed mess. So, if you want sharp edges, and are not willing to invest a good bit of time doing it, then this knife is not for you. I was not looking for Benchmade quality edges but I have a grinder and stones and it still took me almost an hour to get edges that would barely cut paper. The blade is thick so unless you are willing to totally re-profile, it just won't cut well. I was, however, able to round the point slightly and put a nice sharp edge on that part and it will slice paper very nicely. The back of the knife is extremely uncomfortable in your hand. The squared off back-end digs in to your palm and is too short. Nothing I'd want to handle very long. It also degrades the functionality of the bottle opener. If it had the shape and size of a standard bottle opener ie. a bigger opening and rounded sides it would be much more comfortable and functional. Even with it's faults for the price this is a keeper. I'm looking forward to trying to throw it! That should be a source of great amusement for the family ;-) Read more
