Bad Blood BB0120K-BRK Kendrick Partisan Nano Folder Knife

First the bad: the knife arrived out of box and plastic, loose in shipping box with no packing (see photo). As a Prime member, I have never received a package packed so badly. Second, if you research this knife on You tube, you will see that there is a major flaw that causes the pocket clip to be loose. This was true out of the box, easily fixed with gorilla glue, but you should be aware that it appears to be a flaw in all production knives of the partisan nano model. Now the good: this is an awesome knife. Absolute perfection in balance and design. Feels natural in the hand, very heavy, beefy knife. The scales are micarta, and nicely done, which is unheard of in a knife of this price range. Came razor sharp. Even with the flaw in the pocket clip, this knife is a winner in every sense of the word. I own knives in every price range, from Emerson's to other Bad Bloods. I would put this knife on the list as one of my favorites, in any price range.

This knife is better than I was hoping for! I have the fixed blade version of the Partisan Nano and it set the bar high. This knife is a beast of a knife, yet the ergonomics are well thought out and it feels perfect in my blue jean pockets. This folding version has a slightly thicker blade and the handle is almost an inch longer than the fixed blade version. Lock up on the liner is very secure and make a nice, strong click as it locks into place. This knife arrived razor sharp and promptly took all the hair off of my left arm. As much as I love the fixed Partisan Nano, the folding Paristan Nano is now my favorite knife. Where has this little beauty been all my life? For the price of $30, I will order a couple more as back ups. Great value and brilliant perfect ergonomics.

Be advised; this unit is very heavy and large. Perhaps too large for EDC. But it is well crafted and resides in my BOB kit.
