StatGear Pocket Samurai Folding Knife for EDC - Aluminum Handle Edition

Fit and finish is really good. No rough edges and very comfortable to hold and use other it's small. looks like phosphor bronze washers as far as I can tell and operates smoothly. One handed opening best for small hands. Right hand thumb stud only. Pocket clip is very good but could be a deeper carry for the small size. It even has very good detent with an actual ramp and ball from what I can see and feel. The blade has slight side to side play. It is secured with a torx but it is free spinning and cannot be tightened. I cut up several Amazon boxes last night and everything feels solid. Side play did not get worse so is currently OK. Cutting angle is great and performed excellently. I was able to do a lot of push cutting with minimum force using the factory edge. Lock up is at least 50% and survives the whack test. Girlfriend has me testing it before it gets properly sharpened and she puts it on her key ring. So far I am very impressed.

I got this pocket knife simply because I never had one at all. I always had need for a pocket knife or something to open packages or for other uses. This one looked rather cool and less intimidating than other pocket knives. I just wanted something small and light, so everyone in my family could use it and not be scared to use it or to be cut by the blade if it suddenly opened up. I like how you HAVE to bring the blade out and lock it yourself. In the same movement you have to move the release lever to the side to bring the blade back in. The only complaint I have is that to me it's not a deeper shade of purple is more of a darker pink to me. Which is fine. Purple is my favorite color so that's my only small gripe about it.

This knife is the perfect size to attach to your keys and has a very nice look to it. It is also very discrete in that it doesn't look like a knife at first glance. This is the perfect folding knife to carry if you're in a situation where you're work or school doesn't allow any blades to be carried on to the property. It is very discrete and will not alert any one to the fact that you are carrying a knife. HOWEVER, DO NOT BUY THIS KNIFE FOR SELF PROTECTION. This is a great knife to carry if you want something to open letters and boxes or other simple objects, and it may look like a miniature samurai knife (and the design looks fabulous), it is not made to be used as a self defense tool.Also, I see that many people are complaining about the clip being too low to use it as a pocket clip effectively, but I believe they advertise it as a money clip rather then a pocket clip. As a pocket clip, it does suck. However, since they advertise it as a money clip, I don't think it's worth docking a star. As a money clip, Its effective. Its slim enough that it doesn't pose any discomfort when inside the pocket and its very sturdy, so the bills don't just fall off. Card will also fit in the clip. It also looks like a normal clip rather than a knife, going back to it's discrete look.Overall, this is a very nice knife to have for every day use and I recommended it especially for any one who is in a position where they can't carry a knife but still want a a simple knife to use.

Not bad I just got the purple one because I liked the color. I’m a knife guy and like big knifes and small knifes and this will go with my small Bestech knifes. It’s not as good as those knifes but it’s also not $120.00 it’s two handed opening but you can close with one hand the blade is sharp and the purple does look really cool. I like it and would agree it is worth the $20.00 price tag it seems pretty sturdy and the fit and finish is very nice. It’s different and that’s why I like it and it is functional for small jobs and looks cool. Fun little knife I would recommend to anyone asking or thinking about it.

Believe the reviews on these incredible little knives: They work exceptionally well and last for years. My most recent purchase of a Pocket Samurai was June of 2017. I finally purchased a color other than black, I decided to grab a RED one and it still looks nearly indistinguishable from new! I’ll usually carry mine in the coin pocket of jeans or shorts and it’s easy to forget it’s in there. Both the blade and body of the knife are rust-free and the red anodized color on the aluminum body remains completely intact. I’ve not applied any oil to the knife, and it still opens fine, complete with a satisfying, audible CLICK once the liner lock locks the blade into the open position. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about these little knives. They remain excellent conversation starters and I’ve gifted quite a few of them to family and friends. For $20, I simply can’t think of any knife that provides the same degree of build quality that these little knives provide.

Excellent small knife. Sharp out of the box. Liner lock works well to secure the blade. Even though a small knife it performs like one much larger. I have used it for many common EDC tasks like opening letters and packages. I especially like the pocket clip which is unusual for a knife this size. Recommended highly.

This knife thankfully does not open on it's own in my pocket! Might not be tempered forged folded 2000 times steal, as the somewhat whimsical design suggests, but this has proven to be an excellent reliable little edge to have on my key chain. I don't know what the lettering says on the side, probably just a name brand or something, but it looks cool. I'm curious if anyone can translate? Now after over two years of frequent use on a wide variety of boxes, string, tags, tape, wrappers, velcro, random whatever, etc. some of the paint has worn off, but this only increases it's appeal as far as I'm concerned. I've kept it sharp with a few runs through a basic kitchen knife sharpener, cleaned it with adhesive remover/alcohol now and again. The only maintenance required so far. If you are considering getting one, be sure to note the dimensions, it is rather small. However, if compact is what you are looking for, I'd say this makes for the perfect little ninja of a knife. Tough enough for regular use, novelty cool looking, melts right in with keys, little flashlight, and car remote like it's not even there until you need it.

Probably one of the best lil pocket knives I've ever had. Came earlier than expected and incredibly sharp. Have noticed the blade does move slightly if you push it with your finger from side to side, but the locking mechanism does hold the blade in position making it a great, sturdy multi purpose tool. Now I can't say I really like the ball feature on the side of the knife that you need to press against to extract the blade. Not exactly convenient, but I still like that it's overall sturdy, concealable and made to hang on a Keychain. So for under 40 bucks I'd say this is one hell of a bargain.

Simply an awesome little edc
