These are beautiful knives with a good, sturdy build. The blades are stainless steel with a black coating, so they don’t keep an edge quite as long as a high carbon steel blade, but they look nice and I’ve found it more than sufficient for use as my EDC (every day carry). The spring assisted opening is great and works well, although it’s just slightly slower than the smaller version, likely because of the larger blade. Also, I don’t recommend using the thumb studs on the spine to open the larger blades, as the size of the knife makes it a bit less comfortable to open in this style, and you’re more likely to cut yourself. The trigger however works very well and makes a very satisfying “snick” sound as the blade opens (not crucial but adds to the experience). The liner lock seems to be reliable and firm, and holds the blade very steady while open. An added bonus of course is the seatbelt cutter and the glass breaking spike. I haven’t properly tested these (and hope I never really have to) but they seem solid, and the cutter is at least capable of cutting strings and twine from what I have been able to test. They’re good for peace of mind. So, to wrap up, if you want a cheap, relatively reliable, stylish, and sturdy blade that will hold up as a good EDC, these are an excellent option.
