Swissmar Wing Corkscrew (00453C)
It is adequate only. The bottom does not sit securely on the bottle resulting in the whole thing wobbling when you are trying to extract the cork. Also disappointed that the body of the corkscrew is plastic not metal. If there had been a better description on the website I would not have purchased it but am stuck with it as it was on sale and not returnable. Would have been nice to see it in the physical store.

Hi Joy, I am sorry we failed to meet your expectations with our online description of the Swissmar Corkscrew. Please contact our service team at service@houseofknives.ca and share your concerns with our lack of description and see if there is anything they can do for you.
Have a wonderful day.

CIVIVI Altus G10 Burgundy (C20076-2)
I absolutely love this knife. I used to carry my Twosun in m390 but this has become my favourite EDC. Nice size blade in nitro v with drop shut action.
I love the colour also. Perfect knife all around.
You won’t be disappointed.

Light My Fire Maya Dust (IRIN s-mdsn-blis)
Dust works well, lights easy and throws a decent flame. Probably a four star if the plastic tin stayed closed better.

CIVIVI Praxis Tan G10 (C803B)
Decent knife. Very sharp. The action became loose the first day when I reached out they advised me to purchase a t8 screwdriver and tighten it. A week later the tip broke off after pretty light duty use. For 80$ I found it a bit disappointing

CIVIVI Imperium Shredded Carbon Fiber with Copper (C2106C)
It's light, snappy, deep carry and has an old tiger eye kinda look but with modern material. Blade could hold an edge better but you can sharpen it with a rock and a leather belt. Skins wire like a champ and the blade picks up a dusting of copper as you do it putting color completely across the knife. Bit tactical looking blade for the gentlemen's knife I think it wants to be. Overall it's a fancy work knife or an angry gentlemen's carry, sort of stuck between two worlds.

Light My Fire Maya Dust (IRIN s-mdsn-blis)
Saw dust in a tobacco puck. A lighter is a much better edc choice to go with the sweet knives these guys carry.

Thank you for choosing House of Knives Kurt, we are so glad you are getting some use out of the Maya Dust! I keep my wooden matches in an empty Maya Dust container with my gear and have never had a issue with wet or broken matches.

House of Knives Store Gift Card $100 (GIFTCARD100)
I bought a $100 gift card and a $50 gift card for my husband for Father's Day. I ordered the gift cards online and picked up in the Nanaimo BC store. The cards couldn't be used online and the clerk in the Nanaimo store said it wasn't even the same store. The item my husband wanted to purchase with his gift cards wasn't even available in the store and the clerk said it couldn't be ordered. It all seems weird and a sham. I won't be shopping at the store again, nor will I be recommending.

Got it for a few weeks. Come in really sharp. Action is swift and so fun to play with. I have small hands so it fit perfect. For big mits, i would consider the PM2. Really happy with the purchase. Second purchase on HoK and nothing bad to say !
