4 Stars
Very small
Shipping and handling was great, no issues. This is very small and sharp. I don't know how well it keeps an edge but it seems to be sturdy and well made, primarily out of metal. The closure is a little tricky due to the size and only because I'm trying not to slice my hand open. Great for a simple utility carry.
