GW 806

Super sharp, very attractive, smooth open/close action, love it. The only caveat, a bit larger than I expected. But that is on me. Overall, a great knife at an incredible price!

Im pretty bad about catching and either bending or breaking the pocket clips off most my edc knives for work so I figured id get this one because it was a great price and I was surprised at how well this knife was built and the weight plus the assisted opening is crisp. overall this is a decent knife

Nice knife, especially for price. Definitely not lightweight and that’s what I was looking for.

For the price this knife is almost unbeatable. Two were gifted to friend and friend’s son. They love them! Sharp! The blade is sharp. It’s well made with a wicked sharp blade. It’s not a $100 knife; however, it’s hard to tell the difference between the $100 knife and this knife.

This knife looks like an old school fruit knife with the added bonus of a lock back. The slim blade can be used as letter opener and any other light cutting job. I used it right away to scrape off and clean the bowls of my old smoking pipes. The knife is sturdy, has good fit and finish. A good buy.

Stable and inexpensive knife.

Is as described, a narrow-bladed folding knife with back lock. I purchased, as did another, to use as desktop letter opener for which it works great. I would not carry in pocket, too many "pointy' corners on blade at hinge side and on end of frame itself. These could be smoothed of course, but at 4" long closed might be too bulky for pocked (no clip, either). Anyway, it does what I wanted at a decent price. Sharp out of the box.

First, I'll admit that this is a handsome-looking knife. More like a prop from West Side Story than a pocket tool, it looks attractive and feels sturdy. The plastic handle doesn't look cheap (it's not solid black but has some slight swirls of color baked in). The blade opens easily (it does not lock in the closed position). As a weapon, it looks fearsome: It's long and slender and the extremely sharp tip looks and feels like it could penetrate steel. As an everyday carry (EDC) tool, however, it leaves much to be desired. It's a little too long (for my taste) to carry in one's pocket. Closing the knife, while not especially difficult, is somewhat awkward...not a task that can be done with one hand. In response to those reviewers who couldn't close the knife, you should note that the blade locks in the open position and you have to press a release on the back of the handle to close the knife. You have to press fairly hard on the release until you hear/feel a slight click. My biggest problem with this knife is the blade itself. While the tip is needle-sharp, the blade cuts about as well as the deck of an aircraft carrier. I have a never-been-sharpened, well-used, 65-year-old Boy Scout knife that cuts better than this one. If you just want to open letters or cut the tape on packages, this will suffice but, as a working tool, it's close to useless. To the touch, it feels like it should be sharp...but it's not. It will probably cut an apple or your finger if you try really hard (I didn't). I did try trimming a twig (less than 1/8 of an inch) off a tree. After 5 minutes of sawing, it finally came off...but it seems more likely it broke off from the pressure rather than being cut clean. Similarly, I tried to cut through a 1/2 manila rope with no success. If I were tied up in a burning building and this were the only way to free myself, I'd be toast...literally. If you're looking for a formidable weapon to intimidate rival gang members, this knife might be for you; if you're looking for a useful everyday tool to carry around, look elsewhere. Mine's going back.
