BC457GB: 457GB Drop Point Slipjoint Folding Knife - Black G10
Bear & Son Cutlery
While knives have evolved greatly over the last hundred years, sometimes you just can't beat the classics. Meet the Bear and Son 457 - a modern-day slipjoint knife using modern materials. Adorned with a stonewashed drop point blade and sleek black G10, the 457 is just as slicey as it is beautiful. One of the more modern aspects of this knife is the addition of a deep carry pocket clip, as most slipjoints of old did not include pocket clips. With enough blade to handle most EDC tasks, the 457 is a faithful homage to knife history with some modern tweaks that we adore, and we're sure you will too.

I wanted to like this knife
I've been looking for a reasonably priced slip joint knife with a pocket clip that I can use without worrying about beating it up. This knife almost meets those requirements, with one glaring problem, the pocket clip. It's so short that there's no way to apply enough leverage from the end of the clip against the "hinge point", where the bend is at the attachment point, to get it to slip into a pocket, not even the pocket of a chamois shirt, forget about a jeans pocket. In other words, the clip is useless. Other than that I'm happy with the knife.
