Uncle Henry Next Gen Staglon 23UH Scout Folding Knife with 2.4in Blade, Awl, Can Opener, Screwdriver, Cap Lifter for EDC

I love folding knives. Most of mine are Victorinox (and my favourite is a Case XX Slimline Trapper). I bought this Uncle Henry Scout because it is very much like the Cub Scout knife I had when I was a Cub Scout and a Webelos Scout. That knife, 50 years ago, had brown scales and a Cub Scout logo inset. This Uncle Henry has stag scales and no Cub Scout logo, but it's got the same blades: Knife, can opener, bottle opener, straight-blade screwdriver, and awl. It's not an especially high-quality knife like my Victorinox or Case ones, but it's pretty good quality and gives me some nice nostalgia.

Received on time. Is a good quality knife stays sharp and easy to sharpen. My all around knife.

This is a good knife for the money, but it isn't what I ordered. I ordered the old style Uncle Henry, which is what was pictured, and they sent me the new style. It's a cool knife, and I'll keep it, but as a collector, I wanted the discontinued model they were advertising. As far as this new model goes, the stagalon handles look and even feel like antler. The blades and tools are good, fairly thick stainless. It comes with a sharp factory edge, but if you're going to use a knife you should sharpen it, because a factory edge is only good for a minute... The big drawback on this knife is that the bottle opener's tooth hangs up underneath the blade, meaning you'll break your thumbnail or you'll want to open the blade before opening the bottle opener. The blades are thick enough that they rub against each other too, meaning they'll be scratching each other every time you open or close them. It took a decent edge quickly. The spring is tight and the blade and tools all click open with satisfactory snaps. Did I mention it isn't what I ordered?

This knife has GREAT snap and lockup, very comparable to Bucks chinese made knives. I love carrying my Kamp King or Ulster, but to be honest this knife is built better. The spine will not break if you half rotate two blades at once, which my Ontario/Ka-bar/Ireland made Imperial suffers from. No wiggling whatsoever like my Marbles. I like the traditional can opener compared to Rough Rider's.Now the not-so-good (my opinion)The stag-a-lon handles feel very plasticky.. very solid, but still plasticky. Im sure they will last though.I PREFER the look of shiny/chrome finish rather than this machine finish look.The main blade seems.. too small for this knife, like it had the traditional scout knife blade but was sharpened down to look nubby, when closed you can see it could have been a little longer and wider to give more "meat" for sharpening, seems like they were going for the more svelte blade shape like a Vic or Case.Those critiques are just that, they are nothing against fit and finish (which is A+) just my personal opinion. I cannot compare this to the American made Old Timer or American Made Uncle Henry because i'm not sure if its an original pattern.

Arrived just fine, works as it should. It's a nice classic design. Suits my needs.

We ordered a few of these for our cub scout pack. The construction of the knife seems solid and of reasonable quality for the price point. Several of our scouts had difficulty opening the blades in comparison to other knifes that we were working with in a group. This would be a good knife for older, more experienced kids but not for those first learning how to safely handle these tools.

Main blade is sharp. Can opener works if you need it, I opened 2 cans of beans to test it. Church key and screw driver work.

I really like these knives for my grandsons. However it said I thought came with sheaths. Other then that I'm very happy with my purchase.
