AUBEY Damascus Pocket Knife for Men with Clip EDC, 3.23" VG10 Core Damascus Steel Blade Folding Knife with Black Aluminum Handle, Sharp Camping Knife

This is a great knife! I am not an expert but I do appreciate a quality pocket knife and this is the best one that I have owned. It is sharp out of the box, sharp enough that I had to be cautious handling it. On top of that it is beautiful with the Damascus pattern and hardwood handle. The knife is solid no loose parts and the bearing facilitates smooth yet solid opening, in fact I woke my wife up playing with it in the dark just flicking it open and enjoying the satisfying "CLIKC" of the blade lock which is just right not to stiff but enough to know that the blade is secure. This is an EDC blade for me and size of the blade is just right, enough blade to be functional but not so big as to be bulky clipped to the inside of my front pocket. The weight is also great heavy enough to be solid but not noticeable in my pocket. That brings me to the inset clip which is the only clipped knife that I have that I don't have to pull the clip open with my finger to get it over the lip of my pants or carhart bib pocket and it remains snugly clipped. That is not the best part about the clip when using the knife the clip is literally undetectable to the hand far better than any of my other clipped blades for sure. This blade is a steal for this price I almost want to send them more money out of guilt, Almost, I think I will just buy a few more as gifts for friends and family. The outstanding clip design, finger flick opening and bearing, blade sharpness and knife weight and leather strap make this a great easy to use knife. I find myself looking for opportunities use this beautiful, well made tool. Side note: I did some sharpening and waxed the blade and handle of the knife with food safe wax it all and that really pushed this knife over the top. The tactile feel of the waxed hard wood handle is amazing and the wax protected blade is so sharp that it is almost scary to use and it has held its sharpness with over a week of light use. I definitely recommend this knife.

Got this for the ole lady and and soon as I opened it right away it had a good quality feel and weight to it, the shell handle looks amazing, opens very smoothly and fast and it’s the perfect size, might buy one for myself

Background: I enjoy knives. I usually only buy autos, but needed an edc for chores when I don't want to beat my expensive knives up and/or lose them. Also, this was a "few beers in" purchase, that I wouldn't have normally bought. Product: This knife is great, came relatively sharp, was absolutely beautiful, and after cutting plastic and net wrap off 8 bales, has held its edge well. This is very hard on an edge. I sharpened it tonight, and you can shave with it now. One of my favorite features, and biggest beef with the Kershaw Launch series, is the recessed deep carry clip. I have lost/ caught on something, way to many times with my launch knives due to the clip being to flared at the end. This knife is almost flush, but still easily slides into your pocket. My Carhartt bibs are quite a bit thicker, and still works nicely. The wood is nicely done, flipper action is smooth, but not as good as a Civivi, Damascus blade is beautiful, fits my hand nicely, and extremely well thought out carry clip. I have knives that are 5-8 times the price of this one, and this has been one of my favorite surprise knife purchases to date. I will probably order more for presents for friends and family. Overall one of the best bangs for your buck that I have stumbled across.

I normally read reviews but don't write them. It's necessary on this knife. It's a very nice knife, super sharp out of the box. I would give 5 starts, except for one thing. IT IS NOT REAL DAMASCUS STEEL. The Damascus pattern is laser etched. It looks very nice, like I said it's a very nice knife and well built, but it is NOT Damascus.

Very good blade is nice and tight, but flips out smooth and easy. Perfect size to carry daily. The price also didn’t hurt. Wood handle seems to be well made. Overall very functional knife for the price.

I am amazed that a knife of this quality can be sold for only around $40. How often do you see a beautifully finished wood handle knife with NO VISIBLE SCREWS in the wood? How did they do that? I wish there were more wood handle knives with totally hidden screws. The wood is nicely framed in polished silver metal, and the substantial blade is real Damascus, and impressively done. This is easily a $150 knife... for about one quarter of that price. My only suggestion for improvement would be the "traffic cone orange" colored backspacer is not a good match for the lovely woodgrain and this needs to be replaced with a black colored backspacer (or brown, or silver, or gray, or ivory,... but not fluorescent orange). Aside from that, this knife a extremely impressive, and quite a bargain.

Sharp knife, but pretty hard to open and not so sharp. I got the black aluminum version of this same knife and it’s easy to open and extremely sharp, guess I was unlucky with this Abalone version. It was also cracked around one of the small screws as if it was tightened too much causing the shell to crack. I know it’s a nice knife as the aluminum one is great, I really like it. The Abalone was beautiful, has a lot of pink to it. These knives are very comfortable to hold with nice balance.

Bought this as a gift after i bought myself one. He absolutely and genuinely loved it!
