Recommended to me by Uncensored2008 in 2020...bought this one in May 2020 and it hasn't left my pocket since.

The most perfect little EDC I've owned.

Easy to sharpen, stays put, made in the USA, Sandvik 14C28N steel and I've managed not to lose it in two years...which is an accomplishment.

Downsides...broke the tip. Easy to do and I knew that going in. Reprofiled the tip on the grinding wheel in literally one second. Speedsafe lock engages itself from time to time. You flick it...and nothin' happens. Irritating.

Neutral...needs cleaned and lubricated about every six months to open effectively.

I think I paid $37 for it.

Goes on sale on Woot from time to time.

I carried a Kershaw when I was in the Navy.

I've carried a CRKT for the last ten years and absolutely love it...
