Kershaw Bracket Cleaver Assisted Frame Lock Knife vs Gerber Fastball Liner Lock Flipper Knife Flat Sage

Not very sharp out of the box. Holding the knife doesn't feel best in hand. The price is low, so if your looking for something cheap it is worth a buy, but I personally would not buy again if I had it to do over.

Now for the honest part. It isn't worth 100 dollars. The detent is way to strong, the grind is uneven as you can see from the picture, and the grip on the blade to flip it out is too aggressive (I belive a flaw in manufacturing due to the "gnarlyness" of it in picture). It hurts to open

It is assisted, it's got a spring in here, that's how quickly it opens up. As far as the steel goes, these brackets are made with hcr 13 mov steel, wh...

Overall, I'm happy with my folding cleaver and keep it with me all the time. I recommend it.

So it has flex, and I have a heavy suspicion that it will start bending and probably break with a side load or twisting force to the blade. The spring assist is pretty weak. It started sulking pretty fast so I’m starting to think it’s not going to hold and edge. I am hard on my knives as they are tools for me

I'm hoping this smooths out over time. Given that I absolutely love everything else about the Fastball, I'm gonna keep fiddling with it to see if it starts to wear down to a more reasonable level. If not, I may open it up and try to file down the nub, but that's risky. But so far my search for the perfect knife continues

2) The knife is big but not heavy. I have other knives of similar size and design that feel almost twice as heavy both in my hand and my pocket. This one is thin enough and light enough that I can almost forget it is in my pocket. Doesn't block my hand from getting things out of my pocket

That style weighs it a nice, 4.3 ounces, so definitely edc friendly, so make sure to get yours today at bladeops.

The pocket knife is very hefty; you can feel the weight of the knife in your hand which is very good when holding the knife for cutting. With just under five inches of handle, even extra large hands can get a comfortable grip. It's a great “utilitarian” tool; very easy to open and close, has a very sturdy cleaver-style cutting blade, and is well-balanced. Whether cutting or shaving kindling for a fire, or cutting through heavy cardboard boxes, this Gerber Flatiron folding pocket knife is a handy tool to have

The only thing wrong with this knife is the handle length. I have small hands and this knife handle is way, way too small even for my hands. Nice Speed Safe Action, came very sharp and great lock up. Kershaw would hit a home run if they made the length of the handle longer

The smooth aluminum handles are easy on your pockets, making the knife a joy to draw out and use. I think the carry-ability factor of this knife is another high point.
