PBK220 Thumb Open Tanto Cleaver Classic Wood Handle Pocket Knives

Best pocket knife I’ve had so far. Easy spring assisted fold out and fair sharpness right out of the box. I would still suggest sharpening it a bit to ensure sharpness. Although it’s not actual Damascus steel, it doesn’t bother me too much. Handle is indeed wooden, and hardware is pretty solid. I’ve found the slight curve on the edge of the blade improves handling when cutting things. And the tanto blade shape makes it easier to cut open boxes; has a similar end to box cutters.Only negative is the look of the “Damascus” type, looks a lot prettier on the previews, but the blu-ish hardware makes the handle look a bit odd; doesn’t affect practicality. Will proabably just take out the hardware and paint it.

Looks, feels, and performs like a much more expensive knife.•Fast spring opening•solid lock up, almost no blade play, easy to unlock and close the blade•blade is well centered•scales look great but feel like plastic, they are smooth, but not slippery•the blue coloring on the liner and hardware is a nice touch•the blade came sharp, but the grind was a little uneven (more metal taken off one side than the other)•I spent some time re-cutting the edge with a sharpening system, and a leather strop and now the blade is razor, hare shaving, sharp.Overall, the construction feels solid, I'll update my review is anything breaks.

Pros:Pretty lookingSharpSpring assisted.Cons:The spring assist is via a difficult thumb push on the side and not an easy index finger assist nub.

It's lovely, and sharp, but unfortunately the one I received doesn't lock. Even when it's open as far as it'll go, the blade blocks the lock from snapping into place. It doesn't look like I'll be able to fix it, either. As for the rest -- I love it! It's well-made (except the lock) and isn't too heavy. It's a little bigger than what I was expecting, but I do like it.

I love this knife for the price, the wood and faux Damascus make it look really good. It stays pretty sharp, and the spring assist opening works well. I wish it had a finger hold to assist opening on the back of the blade, but the stud on the side is easy enough to make it one handed flickable to open. It opens well, sharp, and looks really nice. That meets all my expectations for a simple pocket knife. I have even gotten compliments on how nice it looks.

For price and looks it’s my new carry not the sharpest but just fixed that should work good for work still gana keep my s&w in my pocket tho

This knife is pretty awesome for the money. It looks great and feels very solid. Came pretty sharp right out of the box. Nothing to really complain about at all so far.

Pros: The color is beautiful with what seems to be real wood. The blade has a nice print design. Good length.Cons: very dangerous the lock liner is not well made as it does not properly locks the blade in the open position. The blade is very thin. And it's not center when closed, which causes to slightly rub against the inner wall when closing. The blade has spring assist to open but it's so hard to open with one thumb push.
