Folding Pocket Knife, Tanto D2 Blade, G10 Handle, EDC Knife with Ceramic Ball Bearing, Deep Carry Pocket Clip, Flipper Opening, Knives for Men and Women Camping Hiking (Red)

I just received this knife. I came with no case & no cloth. It was delivered in a plain, unmarked black box. The best things is, a day later, the price dropped $10. Not a bad knife. I just hate the lies.Edit: XTOUC got in touch with me after reading this review. They offered me a full refund & apologized for any inconvenience. I told them thank you but there is no reason for a full refund being I do like the knife. So they refunded me the difference in the sale price instead. Great customer service at XTOUC!

This knife is very sharp and a good carry knife. I wish it had come with the case and the cloth like it was supposed to but it did not.

Blade has no info on what steel is being use, out of the box failed to cut paper, liner lock dose not lock well a little loose

Good looking knife with decent blade steel, although the steel itself is not marked as D2. It arrived sharp and ready for use. The blade is only 3.15 inches long, so it is short enough to be carried concealed in my state. The handle is a little thick to just drop it in your pocket, so I’ll still be using the pocket clip. The “deep carry” pocket clip looks nice and performs well, although the end of the knife is angled and slightly protrudes from the pocket. The ball bearing flipper action is very smooth and easy to operate, yet it stays closed when it should. I’ve had knives that almost fall open and still others that have a very stiff action. This action performs better than most others at this price point. If you look closely, the ball bearings are visible, so I would recommend using a ‘dry’ type lubricant to avoid attracting pocket link, and occasionally hit it with compressed air to keep it free of debris. The G10 scales are just coarse enough to not be slippery, yet smooth enough to not damage your pocket.In my book, this is a great light/medium use EDC knife.

I've been using this knife for a few weeks now as my work beater and I'm pretty happy with it so far. It seems really well built and I like the rear-facing opening mechanism, as I'm a lefty and a lot of the peg-type opening mechanisms are on the wrong side for me. I prefer the tanto-style blade as opposed to the clip-point I was using before. I've put the blade through a lot already and it's not showing any scratches yet. About the only thing I could nitpick is that there aren't any mounting holes on the other side of the knife in case I wanted to move the pocket clip to the other side, but that's not a common feature on most knives. Overall I've been pleased with the performance of this knife.

This is a cool little knife. It flips open easily and the liner lock holds the blade firmly in place. The flipper is large enough to be useful and the ball bearing pivot is very smooth. Everything is tight and well aligned. The scales on the G-10 handle aren't very aggressive so it doesn't have a lot of grip. The jimping on the blade is sharp enough but it doesn't extend to the handle. The real issue is that the blade steel is called D2 in one part of the product description and 14C28N in another. D2 is a mid-range steel and 14C28N is a good budget steel. The blade itself is not marked with the type of steel as most quality knives are these days. The blade came very sharp and the ease of keeping it sharp will vary depending on the type of steel it's made from.

And yet again another great knife from Xtouc! this one just has a very neat and very useful blade shape and grind, it's on bearings and they are ceramic I had it apart and that blew my mind, the finish on it is not what you would expect for this price it's much better. I like the two-tone g10 they knocked it out of the knife scale park on that. There is one thing, only one though, and it's the pocket clip it is very thin and will be a weak point, good thing it is pretty standard and I had other knives I carry not so often that I borrowed from problem solved. I recommend all of Xtouc's knives, especially this one they pay attention to what we want i think.

A straight tanto-style edge geometry isn't very good for cutting and out-of-the-box this knife fails a paper cutting test, but the edge IS sharp enough to function as a utility tool, and the taper of the blade is chunky and durable. A little bit of dust got in to the hinge and it doesn't open as smoothly anymore and the lock squeaks a tiny bit when closing the knife, but actual function doesn't seem to have been impacted, it still flicks in to position nicely and stays locked open under use.You get what you pay for with knives but you can do a lot worse than this at the price point.
