The folding knife is the largest category of knife to be confiscated from people of all walks of life in the United States, and all around the world. This is most likely due to the fact that they have been adopted as an everyday carry tool – more so than a fixed blade knife. And though the fixed blade knife is still the most popular style of knife, the folding knife has been incorporated into everyday, modern life, because it’s inconspicuous able to slide into or hook onto a pocket unnoticed.
Though some folks claim that the folding knife is as old as the Greeks and Romans, the reality is that they were specialized knives for the longest time; carving knives, Swiss Army knives, and knives used in gardening, boating, harvesting, etc. It wasn’t until a few decades ago where innovation started changing the category of folding knife – drastically. It’s as if when Spyderco invented the pocket clip for easier carry and thumb hole for easier opening that other knife companies have started doing anything they could to find the next best thing in terms of carry, deployment and use.

The reversible pocket clip lets you mount the knife in a variety of different configurations. We love these types of clips because you don’t always have to use your left hand to quickly draw the knife. You’re getting a slightly shorter thumb stud that isn’t as rough. It’s just enough to be useful, though we would like to have seen it a little longer.
Linear locking systems are awesome and reliable, and that’s what you’re getting here. This, along with the Trac-Tec handle inlays give you all the reliability and control you need over the 3.4” blade. It’s possibly the best folding survival knife at this price point and offers decent value for money.
