Kershaw Oso Sweet Assisted Opening Knife (3.05" Satin) 1830

I bought this knife for 15 dollars at a store near me not on here but its still the same knife. Its fun to play with but not to take apart. Its not that hard to take apart or put back together but it takes fprever because of the stupid screws being so long. The 8cr13mov is very soft but sharpens ao easily that it doesnt bother very much. I took it apart allot of time because I used it to cut oranges. The juice and pulp woulg get into the pivot and get dirty. It would not stop it from flipping open but i didnt want it to rust. It has a sharp little tip but I am not afraid of it breaking off. The ergonomics are good but it feels very tight when holding it. There is alot of play which slightly conserns me but I dont think u would be suing this knife for much hard work. The cintering is bad and sometimes there is tons of blade rub. U have to play around with the pivot. I like t pocet clip but when u put it in tip up it gives it a hotspot. Though i like the pocket clip because it has good tension but it is not hard to put in the pocket it is ugly but it goes with the knife. For 20 dollars it seems like a 10 dollar knife. If it goes on sale or u can find it cheaper I would get it but not for 20 dollars.

This is my first Kershaw knife and could very well be my last. Right out of the box this knife was not sharp. I had to spend a few minutes honing it to get it somewhat close, but the edge is still not great. My main complain is with the pocket clip, which was factory installed to carry tip down. I prefer tip up. The screws holding the clip on are the tiniest metric screws I've ever seen and no allen wrench is included. I finally managed to get them loose, but when I tried to install them on the opposite end, they wouldn't hold, like the holes were stripped out. On top of that, the opening action is very stiff (needs breaking in I suppose), but also very loud. I guess I shouldn't have expected much for the price because that's what I got.
