Smith & Wesson really made a quality product. Blade has a quick release and easy to fold back. The whole knife is constructed well and is sturdy. It is a great tactical tool to have

Egress and Rescue Tool

I purchased this tool along with the Tanto version with spring loaded breaker to facilitate egress from our Jet aircraft in the event of an accident. The handle is larger on this particular version. It is not too large ,but rather allows a better purchase on the tool for striking a glass or lexan surface. The spring loaded mechanism may be a better option in the event of injury if you are going to use it as a self rescue device. I suggest having it armed prior to an event where it would become necessary to use as the spring force is moderate. I think both these tools are very good for their intended use although I hope I never have to use them.

Very rugged heavy. Quality very good. Made well.

I thought for the price the product would be cheaply made. I was dead wrong. The knife is rugged and sturdy. Heavy but not too heavy. It is easy to work the safety and opens easily. The blade is sharp and the pocket clip is also strong. This product is great for first responders as well as outdoors-man. Best 40 dollars I ever spent. I own S and W firearms and this knife is made of the same quality.

Series 1

I've been reading about other reviewers experiences with the series 2 military&police Smith&Weston, While I can't relate as I haven't bought the series 2 nor will I. I bought the first Smith&Weston military&police (approx 7 yrs ago it's safety is design differently-sliding back/forth and (stays put in which ever position you put it in), rather than up & down that some people seem to not be happy about), understandable! I still carry mine at times, it's been through a lot of use. I now have the Smith&Weston S.W.A.T. It also has same sliding back & forth lock that stays put in which ever one you put it in and YES I love it too. I own Kershaws, Scrades, CRKT..... I have many other quality knives including straight edge every day carry, but I love my Smith&Weston they have NEVER FAILED ME ! Happy satisfied customer for life😎.

Solid, chunky and still one of my favorites

This is the 3rd that I've bought because I just think they're a great knife. Fast solid action, and chunky design. Feels solid in the hand. I put locktite on the screws and they haven't budged. Use it on the weekends and around the house as all purpose beater blade. Dropped it, mowed over it, prune plants, cut rope, open packages. Front sight post on the action, and ejection port are nice design touches.

Love this knife! Has enough heft to get most jobs done! The safety, obviously patterned after their firearm safety, is reassuring. The handle fits my hand perfectly. All in all, this is one of my favorite knives, out of 84 others. Thomas Marsh USMC retired

Pocket carry. Has some heft to it. Flips out quickly. Grat fit for a guy. Bought one at the same time for the wife, had to send that one back. Too tough for her to operate. She wound up buying another S & W though.

This knife is awesome. I came to knifecenter.com to look for another knife and came across the S&W MP4. I am glad I made the purchase. I was surprised to feel how solid this knife is. After showing it to a friend they also came here and made a purchase. I am also a first time customer of knifecenter.com and it will not be my last purchase with them. Nice site and nice service.

This is a Great all around utility type knife, it takes a little getting used to as far as the weight, but that would be to your benefit should you need to use the window breaker, I carry it every day for work so all in all this is an excellent choice of knives for the right job, and the spring assist blade is a big plus, I would highly recommend this knife!!!!

I read some of the reviews, and was a little nervous about buying this knife. I ended up taking the plunge and I couldn't be happier. This thing is built to last. Real strong spring, flips fast. I totally love it. I actually ended up ordering 6...one for me, and one for each of my groomsmen. They will be stoked!

This knife is honestly the highest quality knife I have come across. It isn't made out of cheap material. Its a very solid, sturdy piece of metal. The blade is sharp. I will admit when you first get the knife the button to open the knife is a little hard to press to get it open but after a few clicks it becomes alot easier, but thats a good thing because you don't want it to be so easy, to where to knife just opens while its in your pocket. The only downsides I could think of after using this knife is that it is pretty heavy however if you clip it on to your belt it isn't much of a problem. And secondly, when closing the knife after it had been opened, it gives you a little resistance and spring back so you have to put a good amount of pressure on it to close it , but its not a big problem. But all and all, it is a sweet knife. Not only does it look super cool and futuristic but its real high quality so you get your moneys worth.

I have had this knife for five years now and it is incredibly durable. I actually love the weight too.It was actually frozen in the ice for an entire winter after if fell out of my car a few years back. Ran over numerous times and still continues to be sharp and reliable. The "magic" assist is still incredibly strong and flies open with ease. I used this knife very often and the blade has yet needed sharpening. The pocket clip has fallen off, which does not surprise me given it's abuse. Also, the "lock" only prevents the assist from activating. The blade can still be opened with a little forse. Haven't used the glass breaker yet, which isn't necess a bad thing. I would recommend this knife to anyone that was in search for a multi use blade.

Smith & Wesson M&P MAGIC Assisted 3.6" Combo Blade, Black Handle, Wind

I bought this knife about a year ago I like the fact it had the MAGIC assisted open feature and glass break on the back of the knife. Over all the knife still performs well. The only complaints I have regarding the knife are the pocket clip has not remained tight and the MAGIC assist tab broke off so I have to send it in to be repaired. The knife does weight allot and I do not recommend it as a carry knife get the smaller version if you want a carry knife.

Great Knife - Great Price

Overall this is a great knife, it opens strong and smooth, the blade is nice and very sharp. It feels good in my hand. As stated in another review, if you hold the knife with your hand down like you would if you are holding a pistol, and with the assisted release at the top, without the blade released, the knife resembles a pistol very well, the top release looks like a front sight and there is a part of the body at the top that looks like the ejection port. There was one thing I did notice, I ordered two of these knives and on one of them the safety switch doesn't click into place it swings freely, it still works fine, but if can fall out of the safety position easier than the other knife I received.

Good product

Product is strong and hefty. The blade opens with confidence with a simple flick of the finger. The blade opener on the spine is easy to use butbthe thumb stud is smaller than the thickness of the handle so its hard to use. Overall great quality and is easily removed from pants pocket while using the clip. Great knife.

Pretty Good

Just purchased this knife and I’m happy with my decision. Even though from what I’m reading about the 4034 steel (cheap doesn’t hold edge) but supposedly tough. I can’t really complain because it’s a $40 knife lol. Regardless right out the box the blade is sharp (I cut myself once). It does have some weight which will take a little time getting used to. Can be used for edc or probably self defense. I love the way it feels in the hand, just a good design for a good grip. Safety switch is audible. Overall a good design and feel.

Pocket clip screws will not stay tight. Get some Loctite. 2) The safety works but it is a bear switching it off. Bad enough that I don't even use it.

Sharp out of the box, terrible safety/lock

I got this gift as a groomsman gift this past January. I loved it, and like any other new knife I get - I was excited to put it to use and wear it on my pocket. Right out of the box it was sleek, sharp and bad ass looking. I loved it. I did notice however, that the safety switch was very very VERY poorly designed. Like a previous comment mentioned, a breeze could blow it from safe to open with ease. So, I guess I really wasnt all that surprised when putting on my jeans one day, I stabbed myself in the leg twice - no exaggeration. Im not a dummy, and wouldnt leave the safety switch off - the safety is just so sensitive, it moves on its own. Im honestly paranoid to wear it now. I love the knife but now I just have it sitting on display. Not what I intended it to be for. Looks like I'll be going back to my trusty old Kershaw on my hip again.

Very Solid knife

Great for breaking side windows in cars. The overall knife is just a little heavy as it makes your pocket sag if you are not wearing it on your belt. Great double edged blade, useful in many cutting applications. The safety on mine is difficult to operate and sometimes won't stay open so when you go to close it you can't. Also, the safety is made to be operated by a right-handed person and I am left-handed.

not good enough for good ol boys!

My kershaw was much faster and lighter I bought this to replace it and I am very upset this thing looks cool but its very heavy and the blade steel sucks its 4034 steel (a fancy way of saying cheap garbage) the blade was almost sharp so I finished sharpening it until I could carve a peice of newspaper without issue then I used the knife for a day and by the time I got home the blade's edge was full of gouges and the blade now has play in it bottom line if you want a knife that looks cool and you can flip it out to show your friends great this is your knife on the other hand if you use your knife leave this "toy" alone!

worst knife ive ever owned

Easily the worst knife ive ever owned. Out of the box, the blade was decently sharp, but the safety lock was so loose that if i blew on it hard enough it would unlock. Also the blade was loose enough that it would wiggle around, and even when i tightened to bolt enough to actually slow down the spring action tremendously, it was still never really solid. The little screws that hold on the pocket clip were constantly coming loose. I sent it back thinking it was just a factory screw up, got another one and it was the exact same thing with the exact same problems. I completely regret this purchase
