This type knife was a common find in the grand parents house. Usually in that junk drawer that held scissors, sewing thread, and random stuff. They were usually white plastic with a company biz card type logo. Definitely brings back memories. The metal design looks light years better than plastic. Very handsome look.
Cool! I've been curious about this guy since I saw it on the site. I appreciate you covering it in the video. I'm totally adding one onto my next order! Cheers
I’m a rough Ryder guy and especially cool little working knives with cool operations I’m in!!!!! I’ll have to add one to the cart next time!!!! Thanks so much
I just got a couple knives from SMKW, and I passed right over this, because I figured an OTF knife for that price would be junk. I had no idea how ingeniously simple the action was. I missed out.
Not a new design though. About half of a Century ago I was a sales rep and one company gave me hundreds of these as advertisements and because their new packaging needed a sharp knife to open properly. So we would demo them and give one to each customer. They were made of plastic except for the blade. I ended up with a dozen or so of them and gave them all away to folks over the years...carried one for a long time till it fell apart. lol Thanks for showing us something different. The design does work.
I am the guy who made the comment about the safety of OTFs in previous videos. Sometimes as I think about knives all the time I like to exercise in my head what would a good design that could be used hard that could be mass produced to millions of soldiers. If have you millions of soldiers in a army it becomes cost prohibited to give a Microtech Scarab to each soldier. This design and the gravity knife I think would designs that could be cheaply mass produced to be put inside survival kits.
This also made me think about the trifold style. Anyone familiar with those? I kinda wanna get the one by Fred Perrin since the cold steel isn't around anymore.
My dad use to get cheap plastic body knives like this as promotional pieces on the 90s. Always liked the design
nice to see this old design with a bit better construction than typical
I have a couple old zipper knives, used to be a big advertising item back in the 80’s.
I remember those, the ones a I had were white plastic and metal blade

This is a cool little "late stocking stuffer" esp at the sale price. I missed the angry watermelon, but will get in on this one!
Simply ingenious little knife.
Nice----presentation as well as the product. Thanks for taking time to show it.
Appreciate your comment! 😀

Appreciate your comment!
Very cute and tastefully designed. It was good that they didn't throw in shields or raised "RR's".

Thanks for commenting! I remember your words!
Very cool! Is it sharpened on both sides?
No, single side only on this

End of Nov. 2022, they are now about $15.
Inflation, it's a thing.
It’s 10 months later, inflation is even worse, and they’re still $7.
