Crescent 3-1/2 Inch Harpoon Blade Composite Handle Pocket Knife - CPK350C

Sharp as shipped, solid extra deep pocket clip, positive closed position (unlikely to open inside pocket), smooth ball bearing flipper opening, solid liner lockup, no side-to-side blade play, centered blade, comfortable grip, "lifetime" warranty. About as large as I would want for EDC with 3.25" blade. Not too heavy for EDC, but not a lightweight. No frills: No fancy packaging, no relocatable clip, no extra blade locks, no spring opening assist, no blade coating, no sheath or case, plain black scales. Hollow ground blade, which in my opinion, is easer to sharpen, but less robust than flat ground.

I’m a cabinet maker / finish carpenter. This is a great work knife at a great price. 3.5 drop point blade my choice for pretty heavy woodworking related chores. Slim for easy fit in pocket, apron, or work belt. Smooth action. Important for me: can easily open, and then easily close, with one hand. Bearing smooth enough that blade falls back into handle. Composite scales are about indestructible. Holds edge pretty well. Not surprising it’s a good work knife - made by Crescent. Was surprised at low price. Bought several now for shop, belt, van, edc tool bag. Highly recommend.

This is a very nice knife with good weight and balance. It's not the sharpest blade as shipped, but I'm many have told me it can be sharpened up and can perform as well as much more expensive knifes

Awesome knife, would have given 5 stars if it wasn’t so thick. Lots of waisted space between the frame and blade also, the scales are pretty thick. Could be made way slimmer. That being said, I bought another as I really like this knife. Great everyday work knife.

Honestly, for something this cheap, it feels like it's worth twice its price. It's got a super slick action, looks nice, and feels good in the hand. Not to mention it's shaving sharp out of the box. I tested it. I was able to shave most of my face with it.My only concern would be the steel quality, from what I've heard, 5CR15MOV isn't the greatest. If you care more about that, the metal handle version has d2 steel, which is stronger. I'm not a huge knife guy so I can't say for certain, but this feels fine. I've been using it daily for box opening, and as a general utility knife, so doing things that it most definitely shouldn't be doing (opening doors, as a screwdriver, etc) and it's held up pretty well.Honestly, I'm almost definitely gonna buy this again once I inevitably break this one or lose it. It looks pleasing, feels good, and works well. It's 100% worth it

This is now my EDC knife. Not many cons here -- I guess the plastic handle scales feel a bit on the cheap side, but that's so easily outweighed by everything else. After losing two expensive Kershaw knives because they don't understand that pocket clips need to be made from spring-tempered steel (otherwise the clip gets bent outward over time, and then eventually starts catching on stuff and the knife gets yanked out of the pocket), I decided to get one of these as a cheap temporary replacement. I've had this for a couple weeks now and I don't think I'll be replacing it anytime soon. The knife mechanism is sturdy, operates smoothly and locks solidly. The blade is plenty sharp for practical use out of the box. My hand hasn't quite figured out how to quickly sweep this knife out of my pocket and open it in a single continuous motion, but then I'm accustomed to slightly shorter knives; I'll get it down eventually.Leave it to a commodity tool brand to demonstrate that a solid, practical pocket knife doesn't need to be expensive and promoted with a lot of fancy marketing nonsense.

I have both models of this pocket knife, the 3 inch model and the Harpon 3.5 inch model and really enjoy them both. The quality, fit and finish is excellent on both models. The handles are a litte thicker than I like, but they do feel good in hand. and they are sharp right out of the box. I don't how they can get such a smooth finish on a pocket knife at this price point but they did. Excellent value and will buy again for friends and family.

OK... Not the best edge holding knife steel.A bit big for an edc knife (at least that is my opinion)
