PAN 7.75" Overall Folding Knife CPM-S35VN Stainless Stonewash Blade & G10 Handle

It has good materials but the design makes it useless. The blade design is the problem with this knife. They tried to make it too curvy with the recurve and rounded off the full tip of the knife. Due to the poor blade shape this knife simply isn't and can't be sharpened properly so it's never sharp. It's useless. The tip is so poorly done that you can't even try to cut anything by stabbing. The blade size is way smaller than the handle so it feels like a toy knife. It seems like it was designed as a flipper but the flipper was ground off. It has virtually no detent to hold the blade closed. There are so many better options these days that you don't need we waste any time or money on this. If you want an s35vn knife the just works and you can beat to heck check out Cold Steel

Don't expect a big hard on the 1rst time you open it. My $25 Ontario 8902 Joe Pardue feels better to hold and the blade looks way better. I'll try to wear out the Aus-8 steel before I make this my Edc . I still have my $10 folder factory fresh - these are mostly just collectables.Update - this is infused with good energy. My conclusion is s35vn is itself infused with good energy. Best material for me cause I have to work with the unseen forces of life on a daily basis.
