SENCUT Sachse Pocket Knife Folding Knife for EDC, Natural G10 Handle Satin 9Cr18MoV Blade Foldable Small Knife with Clip, Button Lock Everyday Carry Knife for Men Women Indoor Outdoor Gift S21007-4

So, this is my first 'button lock' folder. I had to see what they were about, mechanically. We do live in a golden age of pocketknife possibilities. My wants were 1: a button lock 2: a flipper action 3: almost any steel other than D2. This guy stood out with its profile. Handsome, and nicely proportioned. A drop point? a spear point? well, it IS pointy. Pointy is good. I picked the blacked-out with wood scales model. I haven't bought wood in years. Nostalgia. Well, this knife came flawless. I won't go through it point by point but everything looks excellent. The 'button' has good purchase on the blade back, my main concern.OK, it's Chinese steel, but an all-right steel. It's like 440 C. Hey, we're talking $ 45 bucks here. It opens by flipper or by studs, or via the old-fashioned way, just pull the blade out. Nice, it is an excellent little knife. If I lost it I would buy another one. It is no sexy, head-turning beauty like my Kizer Manganas but this is a knife that I won't be afraid to use in a rough situation. I believe that it stands a good chance of surviving the hot summer in my sweaty jeans pocket. No one has just one pair of shoes. You've got your everyday pair and your Sunday go-to-meeting shoes, and one can't have too many pocketknives.Update: Now having carried this little guy through most of the summer, my observations are thus- It is a fun little knife. It IS a little knife though. It is for little jobs. The handle scales offer a skinny grip. You will feel that the blade wants no part of being torqued left or right.Someone asked if the blade ever got a wobble, well, yes, one did develop. It is an easy fix, but being a knife from the budget seats you will need not one, but two torex-style screwdriver bits. One to hold the left side steady and the other to then turn tight on the right side. Most knives of this style in the $70 and up range come with some type of decorative pivot on the left side and only need one torex bit to adjust. It is still a nice little guy but there will be times when I carry something more robust.

This knife had a good reputation as a "budget" knife, but I never expected to love it as much as I do! I've exclusively carried my Sachse since I got it a few weeks ago. Large and small Sebenzas, Spydercos and Benchmades (all of which I love) sit on my desk while I carry this folder. I carry it in the same pocket as my phone with no issue. It is the most fun knife to open and close that I've ever experienced. I usually prefer back locks and am not one to fidget much, but I find myself meditatively opening it and closing it throughout the day. The button lock was a little bit sticky at first, but it's broken in nicely. It was razor sharp out of the box and I've been impressed by the edge retention of the 9Cr; it gets regular use and I haven't had to sharpen it yet. I don't usually like coated blades, but it's holding up well and contributes to the aesthetic of the knife. The green micarta provides a nice grip and the pocket clip, which I've read complaints about, functions perfectly. It's clear why this knife won an award when it was released in 2022.It's hard to believe that you can get such a great knife for this price.

I have three versions of the SENCUT Sachse Pocket Folding Knife - black & silver blades, the Micarta Handles & the Black G10 Handle Satin versions. Due to its great features and lower cost it is my most used EDC blade.I like the button release, gravity drop blade, ceramic ball bearings which ease opening, & overall feel of this affordable knife. Very good quality for what is is (a lower cost China-made everyday EDC knife). Great knife for fidgeting & opening with a flick of your wrist. Button release makes closing a breeze. Blade is a low to mid-level quality, sharp & functional.This is not a heavy duty tool like my more expensive folders, but for light weight duty it works just fine. Design is functional but not fancy, size is about medium for a folder and comfort is great for a folding knife.There are videos on taking this knife apart to clean and adjust it (don't crank down on the screws - tighten just a bit past hand tightening).ordered the T001C 6 piece titanium clip and titanium screws, (6PCS screws are divided into 3 packages, they are packaged in A, B, C which fits different knives). These are nice to give a lower profile clip.
