Sitivien ST112 Folding Knife, D2 Blade and Micarta Handle EDC Tool Knife with Pocket Clip for Outdoor Camping Hiking Survival(Army green)

I know it's not the strongest, but it's sharp af, light, and easy to open AND close one handed. Inexpensive enough that you won't cry if you lose it. I bought 4 more. Maybe I'll give them as gifts....maybe

Great quality knife for the price! Can't beat that low price and the knife is great! The knife is not too heavy, doesn't feel like it's taking up a lot of room in my pocket, everything feels sturdy and strong as far as the locking mechanism and pocket clip... and I like the grip on the handle! Looks good and feels good in your hand. I forget what they call it but I like it! It's a badass little knife and I'm stoked with the purchase!

This is my 4th Sitivien, and my 2nd of this model. The original had some issues, some expected of a knife in this price category (slightly off center blade, over sanded micarta scales, not too sharp). The one that made me exchange though was a very loose lockup. A little pressure on the spine and it would shut. Not safe in my opinion.The replacement though is amazing. The micarta is well textured and grippy. The blade is magazine paper slicing with ease sharp. Action is pretty good - opens and closes one handed. Most importantly - the lockup is sure.I've had a similar experience with other Sitivien knives. The good ones are way better than they should be for the money. The bad ones are anywhere from "for $15 this is liveable" to "I can't use this". Good thing for Amazon's exchange policy.

The first time I reviewed this knife I started out, "This 31/2” pocket knife is well suited for carry in your left pocket for easy one hand opening.With the clip on your jean pocket, you can reach into your pocket with your left hand and pull it out with your index finger on the opening mechanism, ready to put to use."I should add, "but NOT your back pocket, unless you modify the clip." The clip tends to catch on the seat of your vehicle if you ride high enough to turn and slide down off the seat when you get out.The blade stays in place when closed with a magnet that DOESN’T touch the blade, keeping the cutting edge protected and preventing accidental opening in your pocket. That is really nice.I like the way the opening lever acts as a guard when the knife is open to protects your hand from slipping onto the cutting edge of the blade in use.Had I designed the knife, I would have made the micatta pieces a tad larger to align exactly with the edges of the liner sides for a better grip and feel, especially when wet.I also notched the micarta at the last notch of the serrated liner lock (away from the pivot end) and directly across on the other liner lock side to make stripping a wire easier with the knife.I converted the hole for a lanyard into a bottle opener. I suppose some people carry a pocket knife around their neck, but I find a bottle opener/metal lid bender more useful in an edc pocket knife. Too bad it doesn't come that way.One more thing. The fiber in the micarta handle will absorb fine dust and dirt in use, You can clean it easily with soap and water, but after you dry it, put a little WD-40 on it, let it stand a bit, and then wipe it off. It penetrates and displaces the water in the fibers. It will not make it slippery or anything after you wipe it off. Urban legend to the contrary, WD-40 is not a lubricant. It frees sticky mechanisms by helping remove dirt and debris. It was originally developed to dry out wet ignition systems.

The media could not be loaded. I liked the micarta scales and smooth action. It locks up tight and is a great value. Holds a great edge and compares in quality to my Civivi.

I love this little knife. I keep it razor sharp, and have sanded and oiled the micarta both for appearance and grip, but this is one of my favorite examples of a very inexpensive Chinese-made knife with a handle and blade shape that really appeals to me.

The first one I received had a very off center blade and the liner was so low in the knife, you couldn't press it with your finger. The bearings had a gritty feel and sound. The liner lock had a bad burr that was causing the detent to get stuck. It took way to much force to move the blade. I exchanged it. The second one was a complete different level of quality. Liner lock was tall enough to press, the blade was centered, and the detent feels like it should. No grit in the bearings. Very smooth.

The photo is A Civivi, a QSP and this knife. All relatively budget knives, Civivi $50, QSP $32 and this one $19. In terms of quality there is no difference between them. How they can make this for $19 is a mystery to me. Perfectly centered blade, ball bearing action is silky smooth, micarta beautifully finished with smooth edges. Blade incredibly sharp. I am incredibly impressed with this period. And for $19 is an absolute steal. I’ll be buying more of these.
