Cold SteelMini Tuff Lite 2" 4034SS Sheepsfoot Razor-Sharp Blade 3" Griv-Ex Handle Everyday Carry Pocket Folding Knife w/Tri-Ad Lock

Five stars for what it is for me, your mileage may vary. Why I like it: Triad lock is incredibly strong, but in such a small knife it isn't important; The form factor (Wharncliffe) is utility knife useful; The blade is one-hand-opening; the handle length can be effectively extended by a short, thick lanyard; the pocket clip is adequately robust and the handle material doesn't abrade fabric; the spine of the blade is a sharp 90°, useful for scraping wood & ferrocerium rods.I use this as my every day carry one-hand-opening small utility knife clipped to my pocket. It opens easily, feels comfortable and natural in-hand and in-use. It is sharp and cuts very well; think of it as a quick at hand utility knife for as needed daily tasks.I have the larger Tuff-Lite, too, which I use while wilderness backpacking as my "one-handed-opening" easy accessed cutting tool for cordage cutting, scraping fatwood, "striking" my ferro rod, etc. The "Mini" is my at home / in town smaller-sized daily user.

Another quality knife from Cold Steel. Two inch blade allows this knife to be carried almost anywhere, including areas with restrictions on blade length, but the Warncliffe blade design is robust, and coupled with the Tri-Ad locking mechanism allows this knife to punch well above it's size.This is a great choice for EDC; very light and unobtrusive, with the pocket clip allowing it to be carried in a variety of ways, and the AUS-8 blade sharpens easily and holds a decent edge.

Nice and sharp. I wish it swung open a little more easily. Love the size.

Sharp. Light weight. Inexpensive.This is a great utiliity knife for keeping in your pocket or just nearby for opening packages, fishing, etc. It's light, and while it's a plastic it feels of high quality. I concur with other reviewers that the locking/unlocking mechanism is a little tough to use. The action and click is snappy and addictive so your thumb might get a little sore.The blade is very small, but it's effective and sharp. Should be easy to sharpen. ColdSteel makes good stuff. My old ColdSteel knife has lasted forever.At this price I picked up one for myself and one as a gift.

Super sharp ! My spouse and I use the two we own daily

I've carried this knife through some of the toughest days of my life- burning buildings, car wrecks, rescues, and many other situations- it's held up to that kind of regular use. Small enough in my pocket to not get in the way of any movement (nor cause any discomfort), print on uniform pants, or to stand out as large and unreasonable. The small blade length is almost always plenty big to get the job done (I mean... I wouldn't cut an onion with it, use a kitchen knife for that)- and the way the knife holds in the hand when opened is pretty decent- I've never dropped this knife. Super lightweight, and the clip holds VERY tight to the pants, it's great.Being such a unique knife, if I ever left it on a table at the station or somewhere else- everyone knew immediately that it was mine. I got another one for camping, and I put a 6 inch dummy cord with some orange / reflective bank line so if it fell into the brush or got lost I could sniff if out with a flashlight.My only problem with the knife is that I'm upset to have lost my first one- it was a damn good knife, with battle scars and tall tales attributed to it! It does not hurt me to buy a new one.Handiest $20 I ever spent.

This is a great little knife. Good blade. Small yet easy to grip. Even has a lanyard hole. My kids all have one and this knife is always in my pocket. Highly recommend.

Purchased this knife for work on account that it's bigger brother the Tanto was just too large. Razor sharp coming out of the box. Fits in my pocket and don't need to clip it on my waist, but it's nice to know that option's available. Has that satisfying "snap" when it opens up. Sturdy locking pin and will not close on you, I already tried while wearing cut resistant gloves. A little pricey but definitely a quality product. Meant for light duty cutting only. If you plan on cutting two inch hose or something in that nature, use something larger. For everday, light duty use only. Cold Steel makes knives for larger purposes. Definitely a good purchase if you don't mind paying a little more for a small knife.
