Amazon Basics Tactical Folding Pocket Knife, Stainless Steel with Premium Wooden Handle for Hunting, Camping, Survival, Outdoor and Everyday Carry

I bought one of these knives after my son showed me his. It was surprisingly well made for the price. Very sharp out of the box and held its edge well. I used it daily for work (and I can be rough on pocket knives). I say "used" because I inadvertently left it on a jobsite and lost it. I hope Amazon Basics brings it back, I'd but a few more just to keep around.

I really wasn't expecting much when I ordered this knife for about $8.35. An Amazon Basics branded "tactical" knife (LOL), and I bought it for that reason alone. It seemed almost like a joke, considering all of the other Amazon Basics branded items available that aren't tactical knives (such as USB drives, towels, staplers, bedding, yoga mats, dinnerware sets, etc).For the price, I was expecting some laughable excuse for a knife, however I was quite wrong. The knife is heavy duty and locks up nicely. The quality is as good as a brand name $20-$25 folding liner-lock knife from a sporting goods store. I have no idea what kind of steel the blade is made from, but I judge it to be as good as similar S&W branded knives that I own. The fit of the metal parts to the wood handle panels are well fitted. Overall the blade feels heavy duty and locks up with a satisfying smooth click that you would expect from a knife that costs a lot more.Overall this is a great basic knife to throw in a toolbox, an inexpensive EDC that you aren't afraid to lose, or to just keep in a collection as a uniquely branded knife.

The Amazon knife is sharp but it’s like they lined it with lead.

Great gift to get for someone

A pocket knife has always been an essential since I was a kid growing up in the country. This is my second purchase of this knife, having lost the first one on a job. The quality is great. It opens and closes easily (for me. A little difficult for my wife’s small hands), holds an edge, and a good size for a man. I’m disappointed that the price has increased so much since I bought the first one, but it’s still a good buy.

The carrying case the knife came in was garbage, def just gets shipped with some random pouch amazon found dirt cheap. You could easily fit 3 of these knives in the carrying case and its way to tall for the knife aswell, if you run around with case on your belt theres so much extra space the knife can just fall out. My only other complaint is that unlike pretty much any folding knife ive ever owned theres no tang on the back of the blade as seen in my photo of my old gerber to assist in opening the knife one handed, it can be done one handed but is very stiff and hard to open with one hand, I usualy end up taking it out of my pocket and using both hands to open it up. Having said all that as far as it being a knife and cutting things it does that pretty well and has retained its edge pretty well after some use and abuse. The crappy case and the need to pretty much 2 hand open it made me give it the 3 star review.

Nice knife especially if you're on a budget it has a really cool wooden handle and it's very sharp I thought it would be kind of cheap since it's a generic Amazon brand from amazonbasics but it's my favorite knife that I've had in a couple years and I carry it everyday and it does the job be careful it's pretty Sharp it comes out pretty much razor sharp out of the box only thing I dislike about it would be the balance is a little bit off because of the wood handle but it makes up for it and comfort and ease-of-use the action is a little stiff out of the box but give it a couple days or even a week or two and it'll be opening like a flash in no time

Love this thing. Just the right size. The serrated section is perfect to break down boxes that need binned. The main knife blade is just right for many uses. Would have preferred a drop point blade vice a tanto. But it works very well for EDC. Smooth action and good lock up. Great value and well made.
