This was a great purchase. Am a huge fan on the Kershaw brand and was wowed (initally) by the price. Once I received the knife in the mail (in record time!), I was in disbelief that such a great and strong knife would come at such a great cost. Happy all around on my purchase as well as the customer service with KnifeCenter.com

Great knife, the RJ Martin design does very well. Opens without much effort. Fantastic lock-up on deployment. Super sharp, and a good addition to my EDC knives..

That RJ Martin look
I have a lot of knives - Benchmades, Spydercos, ZTs and maybe 10 or 12 customs. This was the least expensive knife purchase I've made, and I bought it because I love this particular RJ Martin design. I was astounded with how good this knife feels - every bit as good as some of my 5 and 600 dollar knives. It's centered, flips effortlessly and locks up solid. The steel doesn't bother me. That's what sharpeners are for and this knife will take a shaving edge. It fits nicely in the pocket and I hardly know it's there until I need it for something. If you like the design, don't hesitate to buy it. This knife's value is way more than the asking price.

Great knife/ Great price
My knife is as important as picking up my keys. I like Kershaw knives for their great price and good work knives. Got this one as a Christmas present and it is now my personal protection knife. Holds a great edge and it goes everywhere I go. It opens as well as my Benchmade and looks great also. I have owned multiple Kershaws and if you love a good pocket knife then this knife is a must.

Saw Knife Center had a great price on this one and decided to try it. Glad I did. This is a really nice knife. Handle shape is great with nice grip from the G10 side. Balances well in the hand. Opens and closes easily with the flipper and the assist. Some people might like it to open a little quicker, but I like it the way it is. Is shaving sharp out of the box, and has no blade play in any direction. Like the blade shape, but could use some jimping on the spine, but that's just my opinion. Lockup is at about fifty percent. Looks like it uses bronze washers instead of Teflon, which I like. Overall, I really like this knife. If you're looking for a good knife at a great price, get one and you won't be sorry. Thanks Knife Center for the great price.

Smaller EDC
Great everyday carry knife. I really like the finish of the knife. It gives it character like we're old pals but I've only recently purchased it. Compared to other knives I own I like it's lighter weight and smaller size.

I have yet to find something I dont like about this knife. Right out of the box it has a mean, menacing look and great feel in the hand. It is well balanced and ergonomically thought through. Like all the Kershaw knives ive owned it came razor sharp and ready to work. The speed assist opens smoothly with a flick of the flipper and closes easily with the liner lock. This knife only requires one hand to both open and close. The only critique I can give is that it lacks some form of traction for the thumb when placed on the spine at the base of the blade. All in all a great knife that has instantly replaced my Booker as my favorite EDC. Great job Kershaw and much credit to the designer RJ Martin!

I carry it as an everyday pocket knife. It has a stronger blade than my other Kershaw, which makes it more versatile in everyday use. The sharpness of the blade is a huge advantage, as well as it's thickness. The size of the handle, gives you a firm grip.

I use the knife for general work every day. The look is different and cool. I would like it to have a handle material other than steel.

Cons: Pocket Clip
Great knife
This was a surprisingly great knife for the money. Solid/sturdy construction, comes with a sharp blade, good heft and sits comfortably in your hand. The clip is a little flimsy and awkwardly positioned and takes a little work to get a good edge when it dulls but those are pretty trivial cons at this price.

Kershaw / RJ Martin collaboration
Not an expensive knife. The knife has grown on me, the more I use it around the house / garage / yard Its an assisted flipper (I like that) Blade contour has more style to it than I originally noticed and the spine has stylish contours as well. The blade is 8CroMov13, straight with no serrations, and it had a black-wash finish The knife is medium/large in that range, frame lock, has a lanyard hole and the scale has a metal bolster section with some grippy behind that. Overall good value.
