CRKT Ken Onion Foresight Liner Lock Knife (3.5" Black) K220KKP

This knife is incredible . A design that could only be crafter by a robot samurai, who, is his free time is a master Black smith .The shape and feel in hand is as if it was custom molded to your grip. Fingers follow the grooves effortlessly and hold on tight , and despite the knifes large size fits descretly into the pocket tip down thanks to its low profile pocket clip .people at the supermarket won’t even know that you’re essentially carrying what would be darth Vader’s pocket knife . Amazing knife worth the money .

I've owned this knife for about a year. Its tough, a bit unique and fits my hand well. On top of that I think it looks very very cool. The worst part, by far, is releasing the liner lock. The lock is flush with the aluminum scales. There's nothing for my thumb to push without digging it into the gap. It's slow and makes even my (though) thumb sore if I'm using it a lot. It might otherwise be a good fidget knife also. Unfortunately it definitely is not. The ball bearing pivot is great but it's hard to appreciate. When I dig in to release the blade it falls a couple inches and stops against my thumb. After that it's impossible to keep the lock disengaged and let the blade swing freely.

Can't give it one star, beautiful knife but poor action. Definitely not worth the extra $25 over the K220KKP with the spring assist.Sent blade hq a message and they said different steel and made in China not Taiwan but box says made in Taiwan. Should know better, no more CRKT, ill stick to Kershaw. Rick H.
