C1146 Fixed Blade Knife,440C Blade G10 Handle EDC Tool Knife for Outdoor, Camping, Hiking, Fishing with kydex Sheath (Red)

So when you get this little knife you'll be shocked at how tiny it is. It's actual dimensions are 3.25" OAL, 0.75" wide, and the cutting edge is 1.25" so thats the downside. The upside is, and I was incredibly surprised by this, the sheath is amazing. Normally on cheap knives the kydex sheath usually is loose fitting at best. Not here, the kydex fits like a glove and the knife very audibly snaps in and out of it. That alone makes this worth it. The G10 scales are nothing impressive but they are held on with easily removable torx screws so I will be making some new scales out of some beautiful iron wood I have and will be gifting these.

I bought an orange and green one. There was a 5% coupon at the time so I ordered mine as two separate orders and got $0.50 off each.I saw some reviews that bashed this knife for a few reasons. I think people need to recalibrate expectations.First was size. Mine came exactly the size pictured and one of the pictures even shows it laying across a mans hand, so I feel the depiction and pictures are accurate. It CLEARLY isn't the size of a utility knife.Next some people don't like the sheath and complained about wear on the knife hardware. The sheath retains the blade very well. You don't want a knife to get loose especially if you are wearing it against your skin. Wear from friction-fitting hard sheaths is common with neck knives, this one seems about on par with others I own, just the nature of the beast, especially at a sub-$10 price point.Someone complained about the grip. To be honest I didn't even realize it was fake G10 even though it says so in the ad. the grip has been fine for me, given it's size. If you are looking for a knife in wet/slimey conditions, you probably shouldn't be relying in this dinky thing anyway.Where I agree with some reviews is the point/edge. It came delivered in a small tin box with a clear window. The box is a VERY tight fit for the length of the knife. One of the knives was pushed into the box tightly and it did put a small burr/bend on the tip. However once sharpened it went away. And yes you will need to put an edge on it when you get it, it is a little dull right out of the box. It's listed as 440 stainless and I'm always dubious of metal claims on better knives, so not sure I'd believe that on a sub-$10 knife. I doubt it is hardened, but it will hold an edge for a reasonable amount of work before it needs resharpening. The simple blade shape means it sharpens easily with a few passes on a rectangular stone.However, this isn't a work knife! Not sure why anyone would want to use it as one anyway, it's too small for regular use on a job. It works great for opening the occasion package, poking a hole in things, etc. It hangs discretely from the neck when the bulge of a knife in a pocket or one clipped to a belt is undesirable. It also works well with the sheath zip tied to the molle straps of a larger bag/pouch, which I did with the green one. I gave it 4 stars because it is what i expected and it's decent for the money.

Mostly use a knife at work daily for simple things like breaking down boxes. Wanted to free up some pocket real estate with something I could carry on my belt. The belt clip I attached it to had to be drilled out a bit to make it fit and the grommets had to be removed for the hardware to fit.Pros:Tiny and discreetEasy to sharpenDoes not fall out of the holsterCons:Very low quality metal (will require sharpening out of the box)Holster holes and grommets don't fit average belt clips and hardwareIf you're looking for a beater that is tiny to carry outside your pants pocket and are capable of sharpening this is a pretty nice design.

It's small, which I expected, but I wasn't expecting only one side of the blade to be beveled. It wasn't sharp, but that can be fixed.

I got this little guy because I don’t like to hike with a folder in my pocket or on my belt. This fits so nicely on the shoulder strap! The friction fit is nice and tight and I went with hi-viz just in case I drop it on the trail. I’m going to get another for my other backpack!

Very small but big enough to grip. As a mechanic I need to open lots of packaging and this is perfect. Very sharp and doesn’t get in the way of other things I have to carry daily.

After I sharpened it to make it able to do basic things like cut open cardboard boxes, it dulled amd the tip bent over on a staple. Even cheap steel shouldn't do that. I don't know if it is a heat treating issue or if the choice in materials is just that bad. The sheath is ok for now but the only retention points are getting chewed up by the hardware holding the handle scales on. And taking the scales off won't work because the sheath is molded to the knife with the scales included.Overall this was a waste of money and I should have known as much from the price.

It'S sO sMaLl...and that's how it is described and what I wanted so I have no major complaints. The only complaint, or more of an observation really, is the blade is a little thinner than I expected but I'm not using it for heavy duty espionage and for more of an available truck blade for small tasks which it is great at doing. I gave it 5 Stars for "Accuracy" because it cuts exactly where a put the blade so bravo to me for having great aim! Anyway, it's worth the $10 for a lightweight pocketknife / neck blade / utility blade if that's what you are needing. Just buy it.
