Finally I can say, that’s not a knife!

Excellent quality. Delighted the gift recipient! Bought at sale price, but worth at regular price!

Well built knife. A little slick in the hand, but no hot spots. Definitely added to my EDC. Hopefully it holds up to abuse. I do prefer the original more though.

I ordered a Cold Steel FM-1 knife priced at $326.99, I received a Spetnaz Shovel priced at $38.99. This was not a mistake, it was a choice as how do you mistake a knife for a shovel. The hours for their customer service is listed on their website, however on a Wednesday afternoon, I left a voicemail, an email message, and an online chat message over the course of an hour and a half with no response, This was not a mistake, it was a choice. The next day, after sending them the requested photos, they told me they sent the knife, however they did not check with me on availability as there is a signature required. Of course the knife was attempted to be delivered when I was out of town. This was not a mistake but a choice to not verify my availability. I have spent a considerable amount of money this year with House of Knives, both online and at their storefront here in town, but maybe that was my mistake and I should chose differently what business I patronize.

a great tool for EDC, the 4mm bit are hard to find, try Tekton or any online retailer handling WIHA.

Very nice, great shape for a Spyderco and very sharp out of the box.

Nice little sharp knife. Love it. Great quality!

Beautiful small knife, detent when closing takes some getting used to

Le tranchant n est pas exceptionnel mais sommes toutes un très bon couteau solide !!

The lighter wheel is so fun. Nice little claw to have close by for the small jobs.

Great storage option/ display

Had a few of these over the years and really like them for sharpening our kitchen knives and .y folding pocket knives. Just the right size for sitting beside the knife block and in the cutlery drawer.

The lock mechanism isn’t amazing and the whole knife is pretty skinny for a big hand.

The Kershaw Leek Black Serrated feels lightweight, compact, and very easy to carry day to day. It came with excellent out-of-the-box sharpness, and the assisted opening is extremely smooth — very easy to open with one finger.

The black finish looks great, the serrated edge is useful for tougher materials like packaging, rope, and cardboard, and the knife feels solid without being bulky.
My only real negative is that the pocket clip feels slightly awkward. It works, but the positioning/feel could be better.

Overall, it’s a sharp, lightweight, reliable EDC knife that I’m very happy with.

I’ve never really found much use for small EDC fixed blades though it seems they’re having a moment right now (early 2026) if a quick survey of “pocket check”-style posts on social media is any indication. To me, folding knives are just more convenient to carry, and can offer the same—or even more—cutting edge within a smaller footprint. And let’s be real: the simplicity of use and greater structural robustness of a small fixed blade relative to that of a folder is largely irrelevant for most convenience cutting tasks, at least for me.

I am always open to having my mind changed, however, and when I heard and read good things from trusted sources about the KNAFS Little Lulu, I knew I had to check it out. The Little Lulu is the brainchild of Ben Petersen, who is perhaps best known for his time as the “What is up guys?” guy on the Blade HQ YouTube channel but who is also a legitimate knife designer in his own right, with the Banter family of knives manufactured by WE/Civivi perhaps being his most well-known creations. The Little Lulu is the first knife to be made entirely in-house by Petersen’s company KNAFS in their modest facility in Utah, and that fact along with the small production runs of the model help account for its steep pricing. The KNAFS website claims that the Little Lulu’s MagnaCut steel blade has a hardness in the 63 to 64 hRC range, which is ideal for the steel in terms of prioritizing wear resistance and is in the upper end of what we see from even the best production knifemakers.

I’ve carried the Little Lulu for the past few weeks in place of my usual Spyderco MicroJimbo Salt both as a primary work knife and a small outdoors knife. It’s a small cutter to be sure with a 4.8 cm blade, but in my experience working in a warehouse for over a decade, that’s more than sufficient for typical tasks like slicing through pallet wrap, and the Little Lulu’s blade stock is thick enough that I don’t hesitate to use it to pop highly tensioned heavy-duty polypropylene pallet straps. As a small outdoors knife, the Little Lulu excels at carving and whittling wood due to its great ergonomics, though the thickness of its blade can sometimes work against it in this regard.

What really sets the Little Lulu apart from other small fixed blades I’ve tried over the years is just how carryable it is. Its Kydex sheath is very efficiently-sized and is set up for right-handed, crossdraw, horizontal belt carry out of the box, but it can be easily adjusted for a left-handed crossdraw or even vertical carry. The sheathed knife is small enough that it stays out of the way until I need it—I carry it on my belt near the centerline and I sometimes forget I have it on me.

Of course, there are limits to what one can do with such a small blade and those with larger mitts will likely find it less accommodating despite a relatively hand-filling handle and a generously-sized forward finger choil. On the whole, however, I think the Little Lulu is a serious cutting tool (with a price to match); a perfectly workable replacement for a small folder if one is just absolutely set on carrying a fixed-blade.

This knife is awesome. It is exactly what I was looking for in an EDC blade, slim and simple, yet robust enough you can trust it. Would 100% purchase again thanks HOK and CRKT

Cool design and actually functional. Totally destroys the the CRKT UTILITY

Great design and execution

Nice. Knife. Serves my purpose well

It’s huge and awesome and so sharp it will cut the hand of god
But you won’t regret buying it for a second the first time you
Pull it out of your pocket and open it!
