All Great Except the Packaging....Again
The Kershaw Fraxion itself is a nice lightweight knife, especially for what I paid. I picked it up for under $20, and at that price, the knife itself is hard to complain about. The blade looks good, the action works properly, the lockup seems fine, and overall, it feels like a useful lightweight carry knife. My issue is with the packaging and presentation. The Fraxion came on retail card packaging, not in a box, and the card had been opened and taped shut. I understand this was a special sale price, but it was still sold as a new knife. I would expect the packaging to be clean and properly sealed, just as I would if I had paid KnifeCenter’s regular price or full MSRP. There also appeared to be some green paint or colored residue inside the liner lock area. It does not seem to affect the knife's function, but it is not something I would expect to see on a new item. Overall, the Fraxion is a good little knife and a very good deal at the sale price. I am satisfied with how the knife works, but the opened-and-taped packaging and the residue inside the handle kept it from feeling like a clean new purchase
