Spring Assisted Open Skull Skeleton Claw Folding Blade Pocket Knife (Original Version)

I didn't need more time than the two hours since this knife was delivered to say that I'm in love with it!! I hemmed and hawed before I bought it, went back and forth between the ridiculously low price, ('cause what can you expect for $10?), and letting myself be influenced by some of the usual negative reviews....what a waste of time those are... This is a great knife, and other than its outrageously beautiful design, has great heft, fits the hand like a glove, a spring-assisted flipper which opens the knife like a champ, a great auto-lock bar and all the sharpness I need from a knife straight out of the box!! I could probably go on, I'm just over the moon with this purchase. If you had any doubts till now, take my word for it, you'll love it! UPDATE: this knife sharpens real well, but be careful and give it some time and use a good sharpener. The curved blade needs some extra attention when sharpening!

Great quality blade with a very detailed design. Normally when a knife looks this good it tends to lack in the make and build while using it, but not this knife. Immediately I noticed the weight when I held it the first time, the build of the knife is top of the line. The belt clip is a little tough to get a belt loop through or to clip it on to your pocket opening but with a bit of tweaking with it, was not a problem. The blade itself is very sharp and the added curving to it makes this knife very useful, and lastly the design in my opinion is flawless. Only setback, and it's a minor one don't worry, my knife came a bit dusty and dirty and you could smell the must on it like it was packaged right after it was crafted or something, could of done with a bit of cleaning before shipping but nothing major. All in all, great knife and very satisfied with this purchase, will buy more for sure especially at these amazing prices.

So going into this I wasn't expecting anything that great. After all, it was a 9 dollar knife. However, what I received was something that surprised me. The first thing that you notice about this knife is the weight. I mean you feel that before you even take the knife out of the box. After that, you see the very nicely done metalwork that went into this knife; it appears that this knife is all metal, which to me was pretty important because I prefer all metal knives, they seem to be sturdier. After you finish up going over the detail that was put into this knife, you open the blade up and are yet again, nicely surprised. While the blade wasn't as big as I thought it was going to be, it is still a decent sized blade. Overall, this is an excellent knife for what you're paying. My only complaint is that I wish that the blade would come sharper than it does. It doesn't arrive dull by no means; I feel that it could have been sharper.

What can I say about this knife. I've owned it for 4 years. It's been a daily for most of that and has great use case due to shape. Works great for cutting plants and wood to mark for carpentry. Durable and never failed to flip instantly open. Any time I held this knife I felt secure and almost never felt a need to sharpen it to keep it sharp. It just never dulled. I'm going to buy another as I finally broke it cutting a hose that had metal stringing through it for a rx8 but i also put to much force and on an item that a razor would've been better used

Great knife received quickly through Amazon prime. At a good price. Comes sharp enough to shave dead skin off and oiled slightly for a smooth glide that works great is a continuous motion that is beautiful. My only gripe is that the blade isn't very symmetrical to the handle it's quite a short blade but it's a heavy and very sturdy blade. Although the release lever should be larger to give more of a guard the large space beyond the release lever begs to be a finger hold for more control but offering less protection. Although this makes it quite versatile. I'm interested to see how it fairs at work cutting 2 inch think zip ties daily.

Obviously, I bought this knife initially for the aesthetics of the skeleton and spine down the length of the blade. It looks every bit as unusual and interesting as I wanted. That being said, the quality is actually higher than I expected. The blade does need some sharpening, but I love the weight of this knife, the pocket clip is super slim and sturdy which is nice because they usually annoy me and I wind up removing them, and the only other thing I would say is that the action on the spring assist is a little tighter than i think it should be but it stays locked with no wobble. Solid buy. Love it.

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend, and I'm genuinely impressed with the quality considering the extremely low price point. The knife has a nice weight to it, there are no chips or imperfections in the paint, the locking mechanism works great. It could use a bit of sharpening as it isn't the sharpest blade ever, but it didn't come completely dull and could easily be sharpened. I would absolutely recommend this for yourself or as a gift. The only downside is that the imagery isn't the clearest, but it is identical to the picture so you can see for yourself how clear the details are.

Review Written by Wife Who Purchased it as a present for the Husband: I find this to be a very unique, well crafted, sturdy knife. The hinges are a bit tight, so it takes some effort to open. The curve makes it more of a collector's item than a weapon (which was the reason for the purchase). So don't expect to do more than open a letter stylishly. With that said, if you rub it along your skin it WILL cut you, just will be difficult to stab. It came sharp which was great as the curve blade may be tricky to sharpen. For those wondering, the skeleton doesn't poke or make the grip uncomfortable in anyway. Review Written by Husband: Like the design, was a little difficult to open, however over time it has gotten easier, still more difficult that the average knife with this mechanism. Pleased overall with the item.
