I have been a knife collector for many years, and I own some of the best knives made, (now and years before this), so trust me when I say I ADORE this knife! When I buy a knife of this price range I don't expect a great deal ... I DO expect a certain amount of quality in ANY knife, as reputable companies have to put their name behind their products, and so can only "cut corners" in so many places, but I don't expect to enjoy or appraise a $6.89 knife anywhere near as much as a $75 (or more) knife.
However, that has indeed happened in this case. I have always liked Tac Force knives as a low-end option, and feel their quality is indeed above their prices, but even so, when I saw this listing and noted that there were no other reviews, I was bit hesitant to buy, (especially a wood-handle knife, which can have more inherent problems than knives made completely of steel, or knives made of carbon fiber or steel and polymer mixes). I have literally hundreds of knives, and I always have a "binkie" or favorite that I keep with me and carry in my pocket, (which for a long time has been a Benchmade, and before that, a Browning or Gerber).
I choose my binkies for many reasons, but primarily for quality and how it "feels" in my hand ... I like the knife to seem like it was made for my grip, and well-balanced also, with a solid strength and smooth design. This knife has all of these qualities and more, and the details to design and efficiency that I look for in knives of a much higher price, and so has quickly become my NEW binkie, and my favorite to have in my pocket at all times.
I show it to just about everyone, and let them feel the action of the spring-assist, the smooth grip in their hand, the solid liner lock and weight, the sturdy belt clip and construction as a whole, and the balance when opened. Don't get me wrong, this knife does not come with all the extra gimmicks and materials that $150-plus knives do, but it is easily worth TEN times what I paid for it, and the enjoyment I get from it is priceless.
If you love knives with a simple, smooth design, and clean look and quick action, then you HAVE to get this knife. You'll find as I did that it's the best seven-dollar knife purchase you have ever made, (or possibly will EVER make), and you'll most likely be writing a similar review yourself, (or at least will be thinking it). You will NOT be disappointed ... Tac Force comes through for me again!
I just simply LOVE this knife!
