Otter - Messer Mercator Clip Lockback Carbon OTT10436

I've carried one of these off and on since I was 10 (so about 40 years now) the knife is plain Jane, all utility, slim, with a stiff lock. The steel is a good simple steel that is easy to sharpen. The clip is well done and takes the knife to another level in the EDC department. A timeless 100+ year old design that really should get more attention.

This is a solid little knife that came sharp. It’s a little stiff but the more I use it the smoother it gets. It’s really slim and the clip is tight.

Very well built, zero wiggle and very sturdy lockup. Blade was nicely profiled and very sharp. Regarding other reviewers complaining about the blade hitting the frame, it does indeed hit a plastic insert when it is closed. It was specifically designed for this and has no affect on the sharpness of the blade.Overall, a perfect, extremely slim knife with a very nice and stuff pocket clip. I barely notice it in my pocket.

I own all kinds of knives like Benchmade and Spyderco , Case and the list goes on and on. Haven't had this one long but I like it! Added a thumb stud to it. It feels like it's made well, happy to add it to my collection.

It's what I expected. I own a lot of knives. It sharpens well and a great camp cook knife or around the house knife. Thin and easy to carry. You'll have to care for the carbon blade but I love it. Shipping was fast.

If your looking for your first edc knife look somewhere because this isn't up your alley imo.But if you're a knife guy and you're like me you like german shit this up your alley then.First impressions is that the the fit and finish leave a bit to be desired. When I first opened it I noticed that the knife blade is slightly canted. Nothing too bad but it irks my odc a bit.This boi is slim af, it'll dissappear in your pocket being about 82grams and being so thin.The clip is thight, almost unbearable but you can fix that with pliers and elbow grease.Being so thin it also translates into being slicey,stupid slice.I put a 25° edge on mine as soon I got mine in the mail. Imo that's the best optimal degree for this knife, not to steep but not too shallow.

Lock is super stuff and the blade hits the inside of the handle every time you close it. So there will be a dull spot on the blade the entire time. If you're looking for something lightweight and large go for the benchmade bugout. If your just wanting a light weight lockback go for the delica 4

Very thin good for pocket can not see also very strong can't ask for more .
