OLITANS G040 Pocket Knife, 2.75'' D2 Steel Blade G10 handle, Small EDC Knife with Pocket Clip for Men Women, 2.1oz

Great little pocket knife. Compact, sturdy, and very sharp. Flips open easily and closes easily as well. Would probably buy another, especially for $20. Definitely satisfied.

What a fantastic little red knife! Solid build, silky smooth deployment right out of the box. Careful attention being paid to quality build details, this knife came sharp and oiled. I recommend this little knife for unobtrusive edc as it sits low in jean's knife pocket. Good for collecting or gifting, this is a good value.

The steel holds a sharp edge for a long time. I really like the size and weight a lot. The only con is the first one was very hard to open. I returned it for an exchange and the second one opens much more easily. The shape of the blade is very good for all around use and the drop point is almost centered on the blade which makes it great for drilling holes. UPDATE: I did something stupid and broke the tip on the knife. For a replacement I looked all over Amazon but for me this was the best style, shape and size for the money….so I ordered another one and I am super happy with the new knife. It opens even better and more smoothly than the one before.

Small compact EDC appropriate for opening boxes and other light tasks. Added a lanyard. Clip was replaced with a slightly larger and sturdier spare I had to allow easier return to pocket. Not as light as it could be as steel below the scales is thicker than most knives this size but still pretty light. Easy deployment. Sharp. Will probably add some jimping on the spine for thumb traction. Cheap enough to justify the modifications which are essential for any EDC as far as I’m concerned.

If you want a knife this size, but with more rigidity and/or heft than other such small knifes that do not have metal liners, this may be a good choice for you. Fit and finish are excellent, which is surprising at this price point. The lock-up is solid. The blade, which is essentially a hollow grind, is thin and slicy. It came extremely sharp, as sharp as any pocket knife I've ever bought (and I'm 75 and have bought several dozen). The blade came dead-centered. Like the rest of the knife, the flipper tab is well finished...nothing uncomfortable about it, and as it sits at the perfect angle, it works effortlessly, deploying instantly and smoothly. The handle, with a sort of light G10 texture, is grippy enough, but not rough or scaley. Screws and pivot are flush. One note: The knife design is very efficient in terms of the ratio of handle length to blade length. When it's closed, the point of the blade sites almost at the end of the handle. Those who have large hands, as I do, may have a little problem holding the handle of this little knife, which is a bit less than 3/4" wide, so that no part of your hand extends over the opening where the tip of the blade flies out. The tip can fly out into your palm or a finger if you're not careful. My one tiny picky-nit is that I wish the detente were a bit stronger. Don't let any of this deter you, though. This is a great little knife. BTW, I wanted to remove the clip, and they included a little Allen wrench screwdriver that made that fast and easy. Very nice touch.

The only downside about getting this is knife is that my fun journey in looking for the perfect EDC knife may be at an end. Try as I might I cannot find anything wrong with this knife. It is absolutely sharp -- it cut through a cardboard pizza box yesterday like butter -- the flipper works like a breeze -- it seems fit and sturdy, and fits easily in my pocket alongside my keys. I might like a serrated version someday to cut through things like seat belts, but for now I'm going with this. I guess I can get some backups in other colors to keep my journey going.

Picked this up to carry for work because my Spyderco was a bit too chunky, and I didn't want to beat up the Civivi Lumi. It's the perfect size for a pocket knife and I'm a big fan of the simple, clean design. Opening the knife is super smooth and satisfying, the blade is perfectly centered when closed, the liner lock has good engagement, and it came reasonably sharp. If I had to nit-pick, I'd say the flipper tab sticks out a bit too far, and the corners are sharp. I rounded them off with a diamond stone and it feels better now. I may try to shorten it with a belt sander at some point. The pocket clip is thin compared to the Civivi or Spyderco and retention isn't the best. I'm afraid it will bend pretty easily if it gets caught on something. Overall it's a reasonably well made knife that I'm not afraid to beat on. Solid value for $20.

This is my first non-spring-assisted flipper and I'm pleasantly surprised to find I prefer it! It snaps open just as fully and easily without the help. But what really wins me over is, it's a much easier one-handed close. Just hinges shut nice and easy with none of the unpredictability of having to overcome a spring in the home stretch (which has left me with a sliced pinkytip more times than I want to admit.) I dig the sleek, simple, symmetrical design. It arrived sharp, the clip's where I like it, it's pretty lightweight, and disappears in the pocket. I like the texture level of the handle, it's enough for a grip but not so jagged it's going to fray my pocket right away. Unboxed 10 minutes ago and it's already #1 in my rotation for light duty EDC. Update after a while: the finish on the blade is coming off, and in odd spots that aren't at use or folding wear points (I've carried it in my pocket daily but barely ever actually used it, even then for extremely light tasks). It's still black there, just a more matte black. I don't care but if you're fussy about your blades looking pristine, this could be a drawback.
