I have been looking for this book since 1973 but did not know the name of it. I am delighted with my purchase and am so glad I found it. I will probably buy another one in the near future. Lhasalou

This is a great little knife. It is small, lite weight and easily would fit in any pocket or pocket book, the serrated blade is fairly sharp, as sharp as most steak knives.
For all those people looking for a little utility knife or key chain knife this is not that kind of knife. It is uncomfortable to cut anything with this. The sheaths locking mechanism will wear out after use making the knife more susceptible to falling out is used on a key ring. It is designed as a self defense weapon, the handle says it all it is designed to slip in between your fingers.
I bought this knife for my wife. I clipped it to one of the zipper rings in her purse so she could easily pull it out and use it as a last resort self defense option.
My only issue with the knife is that there is no belt clip. The clip that this knife comes with is much better than the bigger model and could be clipped to a belt loop and held in place behind the belt.
I recommend it, the sheath comes with many holes along its edge leaving you with many options if you decided to ad a clip.

Although I hope it never has to be used, I ordered this as a gift for my husband who is very “defense” minded when it comes to us being out on hikes and such. He was very pleased with it, both the small size and quality of it.

Hook it on your keychain. It stays secure in the snap holster. Fits inside your closed fist and protrudes an inch of razor sharp protection. Nice thing about it is that you don’t have to fumble, or reach for a self defense weapon. It’s already in your hand. Stay safe!

I loved this little knife but it fit so loosely in the sheath that it frequently fell out. I used it as a key chain but that led to it falling out almost immediatly. I used it in a loose pocket and it would come unsheathed every time. Reaching into your pocket for you wallet etc and encountering the bare blade was not a pleasant surprise.
So, I kept having to change how and where I carried it. I was giving it one last chance and the blade vanished.
I still worry about where and when it will show up….It’s a shame because the blade itself was very handy, sharp and useful. It just needs a better design on how it fits/stays in the sheath..
