Its tough to give this a good rating...

While it definitely feels like its built with quality in mind it is REALLY hard to open even when unlocked. To the point it hurts. I have A LOT of knives. Most of them are pure crap compared to my Esee's, Tops, Hogue's, Bucks, and Swamp Rats, but i dont expect something with Smith and Wesson's name ...

The price of this knife is decent. So are the features. The blade came reasonably sharp. This is my first spring-assist knife I have purchased so I can't actually compare it with an expensive one. I would be happy with this knife except I CAN'T GET IT OPEN. The locking is so stiff that it is useless...

Amazing knife, very cheap belt clip attached.

I’m glad waited a few months to review this item, as I noticed this issue was also mentioned by another buyer. This knife is easily the best knife spring assist knife I’ve ever owned, it’s razor sharp, the blade is sturdy, and the safe feature works flawlessly. The knife is heavy and is noticeably w...

Great Knife Except for the clip and screws

The safety feature for this knife not being able to fold over on you...

excellent knife, but...

A fine knife, but it comes with absolutely no printed instructions. I was at the mercy of YouTube videos, and with their help I figured out how to open an close it. How to open an close the glass breaker remains a mystery. Can someone directed me to PRINTED directions in English?

I got this from my son, and he has had an issue with it opening up and saving him in the leg even when the blade is locked

Heavy, solid & good spring assist action, SOLID...

Excuse the photos, the knife has been through a lot. Good solid steel construction, smooth spring assist opening. Heavy/solid knife. Pocket clip on the underside holds knife securely to whatever it's clipped to, the clip does have a characteristic I am not happy with though, it turns outward at the ...
