Nice little budget EDC

I purchased three closeout knives all around $20.00. This was the only one worth buying. The other two were a Kershaw Chill and a CRKT Piet. They both felt like much cheaper knives in my hand and in appearance. I also own a Rat 1, and a Rat 2 and so far have been pretty impressed with Ontario's budget friendly pocket knives. I haven't put the Shikra to any type of real use yet so I can't speak to it's durability and longevity.

Great EDC beater

Light without feeling flimsy. Great pocket clip. Resists wear well. Really solid budget knife.

Real nice

For the price and what you get, I love this knife. It's lightweight and well made. The flipper action is smooth and fast. Size and weight make it easy to carry in a pocket. I wouldn't use this for hard outdoor tasks, but it's great for every day cutting/slicing tasks. Grip feels nice in the hand, blade locks up tight. The AUS8 is fine for the light duty stuff I use this for. This was kind of an impulse buy, but has become a favorite carry.

Sweet $$$$!!!

Noob Review. Totally SWEET knife at a killer budget price!!! Wonderful presentation of a washer flipper knife with micarta handle. Seriously, why pay more for a daily carry? Amazing what can be done at this price.

Can’t beat it!

I bought one at the 20 price. It is by far the best knife you can buy at that price. The blade is hair popping sharp and super easy to hone. My kitchen steel has this thing singing as it cuts. It’s less than 3 ounces and the clip might be a little too tight. Don’t worry this thing hits way above average. Awesome knife!

Good knive for the price

The blade shape is long and pointy--flipping this blade generates a large arc of hazard. The flipping mechanism is currently rather stiff which I hope will improve with use. The handle is very good. The blade shape is rather impractical for common pocket knive uses-- it seems to be designed to open the envelopes of strongly worded letters.
