MNTMT72AS: MT7.2 AS Folding Pry Knife, Besh Wedge Tip
Mantis Knives
You'll notice straight away, that the blade style on this knife is quite different than any other. The Besh Wedge blade design is a capable cutter but designed for the more strenuous task of prying which causes havoc on most conventional blade shapes. The techno-styled grind lines and the random divot symmetry scream MANTIS while the chisel ground, two-tone blade screams "use me, hard!" The knife features a deep carry pocket clip, machined G10 handles, and a strong liner lock mechanism. The unconventional Besh Wedge design allows the buyer to use the knife effectively in far more situations without fear of breaking or damaging the knife. It's a blade meant for prying and it's definitely stout enough to take whatever is thrown it's way.

Mantis MT7.2 AS Folding Pry Knife 3.25" Two-Tone S30V Combo, Blade Besh Wedge Tip, G10 Handles
First time purchasing a Mantis brand folder. I LIKE IT! Using it as an EDC. My only concern, it is a little heavier than my other EDCs but that makes it a bit sturdier. Also the Tanto angle tip is at a greater angle which makes it less advantageous for "Stabbing"!

In certain ways, you can use this as a rescue knife with the glass breaker tip and prying abilities, but in the absence of a dedicated belt cutter you need to be very careful when it comes to cutting open slim-fitting clothings to get to the victim’s wound. Not an EDC knife, but with its broad and relatively strong blade you can use it for specific crafting or some maintenance work like splitting bonded surfaces, some light chiseling, or scraping.What’s good:- Pretty sharp out of the box.- Feels good in the hand, albeit not the most comfortable.- Serration can be used as a line / belt cutter.- Good multi-purpose blade, which also features a bottle opener when closed.- Right amount of detent.- 2-tone blade and its peculiar shape make it a very hi-tech-looking knife.What’s bad:- The liner lock on mine didn’t sit in the middle when the blade was fully extended. It’s got around 1/4 of its width sitting outside (to the left) of the tang. I had to do a bit of filing on the tang to allow the liner to go further right to get a full secure lock.- The ‘triangular’ thumb plate isn’t the most user-friendly, and not enough purchase when wearing gloves.

This is worth a 3.5 star rating in reality. The lock up is very secure, the opening is easy and smooth, the blade is decently sharp (not a huge fan of chisel grinds though), very cool blade design, and it feels pretty good in the hand. However, the G10 definitely should have more grip, it's a bit too slick. The blade centering is quite good, although it's a bit hard to tell because of the way the knife is ground at the tip, and it's shape in general. Like I said, very cool blade design, different for sure. But I like that because would you rather blend in or stand out?
