KA-BAR Folding Saw (1274)
tested this against a silky saw. It is not a very good saw for cutting quickly. Just average. Would use it only in an emergency. On a positive note the blade fully retracts into the handle with no sharp edge protruding. Would have been nice if it came with a sheath.

Victorinox Swiss Army Farmer X Silver Alox (0.8271.26)
one of the better heavy duty SAK's that has both the scissors and saw.
would be great if the awl had a hole in it so it could be used to stitch things with thread.

is it just me or does the texture on the ALox's just scream fidget with me!

CJRB Cutlery Kicker Recoil Lock Blue G10 (J1915-BU)
I love the blade and handle design, but I have mixed feelings on the Recoil Lock. The blade swings smoothly when the lock is disengaged, which is exactly what I wanted, but it feels a but abrasive on the fingers. D2 steel is decent, but I've had better edge retention from the proprietary CJRB AR-RPM9.

Between this, and my CJRB Crag with Liner lock, I would take the Crag, however, if you want the Recoil lock either option will do you well.

Thank you so much for the feedback! From my experience with the recoil it does take a while to get used it, I have to hold my fingers in quite a foreign way in my knife collection. Hope youve gotten used to it now =)

Buck 112 Slim Select Blaze Orange (0112ORS-B/12024)
Fantastic quality edge, and super tight construction. Super pleased with this at the current $55 price point.

The handle had a dirty thumb print, which I am assuming came from an inspection during shipping. There was 0 sign of any use on the blade, and I was able to wipe it clean.

I never thought thered be a modern take on such a classic Buck shape but they did it eh! Wont lose this under your car seat = )

CIVIVI Elementum Shredded Carbon Fiber with Gold and Damascus Clad Blade (C907C-DS1)
Very slick and good looking knife. An excellent knife to show off as a conversation piece, and a good EDC knife.

SOG Kiku XR LTE Orange G10 (12-27-03-57)
The knife is overpriced. The weight is actually not as low as I've expected. The opening mechanism also is not as convenient as in other knoves I have. The lens of the knife is beautiful, but still too expensive overall for this product.

CRKT Pilar Copper (5311CU)
Heavy little knife and probably the sharpest knife I have out of the box. Learned the hard way when it nicked me :) Very cool shape that allows you to hold with 4 fingers. The copper scale on the show side is heavy and beautiful. Love knives with different materials. House of Knives shipped fast. Keep it coming.

What a beaut! You should take a picture now and compare it in a year, that patina will make it one of a kind!

CIVIVI Cogent G10 Natural (C20038D-3)
This one is fun to play with. The blade swings freely when you activate the button lock. Love just locking it up for fun. Super sharp like my other Civivi knife (Baby Banter). Natural scales are super cool, love the translucent effect. Very happy with my purchase and House of Knives.

CIVIVI Baby Banter G10 Ivory Red Painted Blade (C19068S-7)
Smaller than I expected, but that's okay because I only plan to use it in the office. Cool little knife, SUPER sharp. I've had 2 Civivi knives and both cut like lasers. When you snap this one open it makes a very satisfying click when it locks up, kind of surprising from such a small knife. Love the colours. House of Knives is grrrrrreat.

Sometimes its nice to have smaller knives in mixed company, ya know, those people that are scared of paring knives and a swiss army knife. We think you're pretty dope yourself!

CRKT Squid Black Assisted (2493)
Sweet little knife. The assisted open is strong, pops open with very little effort. Opened some packages, cuts like a knife should. Shipping was fast, website is great. Waiting for the Kizer Fatcarbon Original (blue, red, white one) to be in stock so I can add that one to the collection.

The squid doesnt demand attention but once you hold and use one its a tiny how stopper for sure
