sharp, snappy, toucan
What started as a harness knife for cutting nattty webbing off rap anchors, this little blade stays clipped to my car keys and I find uses for it everyday. While not a lock blade, the action is stiff and stays put, so no need to fear a surprise opening or finger gouging chop. Super light weght. I cut energy bars, tedious packaging and feel some security while night skiing in cougar country ( I am deluding myself) Hard still blade, keeper hole, shaped life a toucan....what more do you want?

Just what I expected
Nice and handy knife that I keep handy for those unexpected times. Blade doesn't look, but that is fine by me.

This knife is the perfect little thing to take hiking/climbing-- small, easy, and super cute! I have yet to find any problems.
