S-TEC 10.25" Ball Bearing Cleaver Folding Knife (Matte Black)

This is a well built... big ass folding cleaver. Pretty straight forward, Lol. The ball barrings allow for a smooth and effortless one-finger open. The stone wash finish is phenomenal and the blade comes relatively sharp right out the box. All around great purchase and for this price I honestly couldn't ask for more.

So far a good knife. It's pretty heavy, but that's cool. It flips easy for a big knife. The picture makes it look lighter than it is, but it's cool anyway. Feels like a good chopper so I'll just have to see. For the cost it's definitely worth it. I'd pay a little more if it was Spring assisted. I hope they come out with some more big knives. I'm tired of having to rely on Cold Steel.

The media could not be loaded. It's ridiculously large, but looks cool, which is why I bought it. It's heavy at 12 ounces (340 grams). I ordered the one without a clip, but it came with the clip and the cheap nylon case (I'll blame Amazon for the order mix-up). The blade is sharp enough to shave with. The color of the metal is very dark. I don't think it's assisted-open, but the weight and size of the blade makes it easy to open with the flipper and only the slightest flick of the wrist. It locks into place well. I couldn't open it with just the flipper alone, wrist flick needed. It's so big, it can be a little awkward closing one-handed, but definitely doable.I tried to include a video. If it uploads, I apologize for the background noise of the fan. It's mostly me trying to open it without and with a wrist flick, as well as a look at the knife.

As of now, after recieving it earlier today, I've already put it through some paces with my job. This is not a small pocket knife, and has some heft to it which I actually prefer.Easy to open, easy to close, locks in position, and the orientation of the clip allows me to slide it in my pocket with no worry of it accidentally coming open. Love this knife so far.

If Chuck Norris were a knife, this would be it, very itimidating. I've wanted something like this but dont have 5k-10k, look up @radknives on instagram you'll see what I mean. I was expecting flea market quality but was pleasantly surpised its better. Razor sharp, good lock up, zero blade play. If you hear a lil grinding then add some oil. It actually has tiny ball bearing packs on either side of the blade and that grinding is the balls rolling. DO NOT disassemble unless you are very mechanically inclined and have a lot of patience. No pocket clip but you want it concealed any way and most likely need a carry license in your state, and some suspenders lol. Not that its impossible to carry but it is huge and heavy, just like the title says.

I used it to slice some twine and other small stuff. Mainly kept it in the car as an emergency knife. The first time I took it on the trail and tried to cut a small branch the blade chipped. The branch was less than half an inch. I gave it a couple chops thinking the heavy cleaver style knife would make short work of it. I was mistaken.Glad I found out how brittle the blade was before actually needing it in an emergency situation.

Good

I love the pocket knife. I got one months ago and is great. The new one is defective - Does not open smoothly and the blade is loose.Please there is a chance to get one that is operative.
