Sitivien ST110 Folding Knife, D2 Blade and Micarta Handle Pocket Knife, EDC Tool Knife with Pocket Clip for Outdoor Camping Hiking Survival(Brown) …

I started looking at this on a whim , more interested in the micarta and D2 steel. Then I saw it had a “knock off” axis lock and I was sold! I have a Benchmade Adamas and a Griptillian (along with several spydercos, cold steels and now a couple of Ontarios (a Rat 1 and 2). This opens as well as the Adamas. My grip, even after nearly 2 years, is still stiff. And it has the open pillar construction like the Adamas and Rats. The micarta feels good in hand. The stone wash blade is handsome, the action and lockup are smooth and sure. An easy 5-star, and in the sub categories is even go 6/5 for value. Two small things of note. The grip on this knife is comfortable and assured, but it would be nice if there was some gimping on top. It's completely smooth. The second thing is the clip. It works well and looks good, but I think the only option is right side tip up. Which is my preference, but for a knife that is otherwise ambidextrous, seems like a miss. Similarly, I didn't realize it was a “deep carry” clip, except, at least in my cargo shorts , the screws in the clip get in the way of fully realizing the depth. The clip works well, but I have just as much of the knife handle sticking out of my pocket as a non-deep carry clip.

I’m going to buy another. I carry this thing as an industrial mechanic. I am not nice to it. It is my scraper, pry bar, wedge and knife. It has held up for months. It holds a nice edge and I have to resharpen it way less than those 14Cmov garbage you usually find around this price. Great all around carry knife. I haven’t even had to tighten anything on it so far.

Just received the knife today, havent put it through the paces but passed the paper test with flying colors. Overall the knife feels solid with smooth opening and closing action. Maybe on the bigger side of edc knives would love to try one of sitivien's other more compact models. The steel quality at least from the looks and feels like some of the higher end blades. I love to put my knives through different tasks, so a comprehensive review will follow. The micarta scales on the other hand have a big variation in color from one side to the other, one side is hazy grey the other is black, not sure what happened here.

The unlock button is sticky and rough. It might improve with use and lubrication. Given the price point and the excellent out of the box blades sharpness, this knife is a good value.

Knife is sharp but it is heavy and the pocket clip almost immediately bent and can not be effectively be bent back. Would not buy again.

I also bought the ST203 which is VG10 Damascus steel with a Dalbergia wood handle ($39) both of these knives are of incredible value. I used to think my Civivi knives were great value at $50. These are less with superior materials and probably the same craftsmanship. I'm going to get a few more of these. Now I can have a damascus steel knife to beat up the woods and not feel crappy if I wreck it. How freakin cool is that. I'm going to get a few more of these. By the way, I love flipping this open with the thumb stud and closing it with the axis lock. I took the pocket clip off just like I did with my Benchmade Bugout though as boith knives can open by shaking it.

This is one of Sitivien's better folding knives. Action is so smooth. The axis-lock is great on this knife also. Love the D2 blade shape because it's actually usable. My only complaint is that the micarta scales are way too smooth for my liking. They look like they have texture, but there's no texture at all. They feel almost like smooth G10 scales. I am hoping it's just mine that is like this. The grooves in the handles are nice though, just don't know what the deal is with the smooth handles. Overall, this knife is superbly built.

The blade, handle and action are incredible. My favorite knife (and I have a lot). The only issue is the pocket clip screws are a little loose, but I cannot find any screw driver to tighten them up!
