  Everyone needs a small pocket knife. I have my dad’s Old Timer but I’d hate to lose it. This little knife seems kind of cheaply made at first but I’ve had it awhile now and I’ve opened a few packages. It’s surprisingly solid and it’s actually pretty solid for the size and price. I took the little shackle off. I can see using it as a key chain but I keep it in my pocket.It’s a nice little knife. It’s very sharp but I can’t say for how long. Generally Case blades are decent at holding an edge.Overall, for what it is, five stars. Now, if you compare it to a 4” blade four stars. A six inch blade two stars. You get the point? Point, knife, get it?

  I much prefer drop point pocket knives. For one thing, when I whip them out and use them, they are less intimidating to others. They look like a butter knife. But this knife, after a touch up with a 4000 grit stone, holds a shaving edge. Even used it to shave some callouses off. I know that is gross, but things people do with pocket knives are sometimes that way. The fit and finish is good, but not top notch, so it is giftable to a pocket knife person, but probably not to the gentleman pocket knife carry person.This is a nice smaller sized utility pocket knife, which looks like it will hold up until I loose it, or someone steals it.One more thing, they need to adjust their sharpening jig, because the edge on mine got cut into the non-edge portion of the blade. I suppose that might make the blade weaker, but I don't plan on using it for a pry bar. But that is an example of the fit and finish which makes it less giftable.

  Bought this knife on a whim to go along with the big timer and it turned out to be an even better buy then the larger knife. This knife is very small but seems more solid than my other keychain knives . Lock up is rock solid , no play in the blade and razor sharp. I normally don't have a blade on my key chain as previous knives have not been up to standard but this one is on my keychain now and won't be leaving , i can't believe a small Chinese made knife has turned out to be superior quality than knives costing twice as much, I would definitely recommend this , just beware of the picture it is a tiny knife much smaller than the picture implies

  The edges of the handles are very sharp, not comfortable at all. After 15 minutes of filing easing the edges of the handle, it is now just what I wanted. A small, nice, knife with a locking blade. I am using it for around the desk tasks, like opening letters and boxes. I think it is a good value.

  This is not a top-of-the-line knife, but it's not intended to be. This is a nice, basic knife, at a good price, and appears to be well-made. It has brass layered in between the steel frame and the "bone" handle, which indicates to me a little better quality...what I would expect from Schrade. I bought several of these to give as gifts to guys hosting a party for me. The intent is that they would get a knife small enough to carry on a key ring, but large enough to be useful. I am happy with this purchase.

  Love this little keychain knife, but this is the second one that failed in the way indicated in the photo. The tiny metal rivet that holds down one end of the hanging hoop breaks just through being carried around in a pocket. Won’t buy again.

  I bought this knife so I would always have the perfect tool at hand to open all my Amazon boxes. It's sharp and compact. I've had it over two years and have only sharpened it once. I don't even feel it in my pocket. I went through the TSA-type security at the Freedom Tower in NYC last year, forgetting I had it with me. They found it with their x-ray machine, but the head guy laughed and said to just keep it in my pocket. Perfect... beats having it confiscated.

  Very difficult for me to fold the blade back into the handle. It is a locking blade and you need to push in the lock on the back side. I have weaker fingers and no finger nails and not because I chew them off they are fragile and so not as useful as some peoples like my husbands. But I wanted a small knife with a bail for carrying when hiking/biking/kayaking/ even caving and running about in the outdoors. I have a beautiful small much better made knife but has no bail to secure it to your pack inside or even outside. So I give it 4 stars because it's too difficult to fold back in...dangerously so. I can manage and will manage mind you just not convienent. Also blade was not at all sharp as in I mean not sharp. Husband can do that too. Since I rarely use a knife my blades tend to stay super sharp for years. Once in a while you do need one. I read years ago about a gal who escaped being attacked twice on her backpack trip going solo she felt because she had a 5 or 6 inch straight knife on her belt in a sheath. I have looked for my ideal of that knife and just have yet to find it. Meantime I do solo camping and it's amazing how many ladies are camping as singles or leaving the men at home where they want to be while we ladies want to be OUT THERE !!!! It's a ladies thing:)))) Happy camping everyone.

  I bought the Old Timer 10T to replace an Uncle Henry LB1 that, after carrying and using nearly everyday for 30 years, I finally broke the tip off of it. The Old Timer has a taller, heavier blade which is a plus and came very sharp. It arrived brand new, in the box, sealed on both ends by the factory. I found several small quality defects with the knife, but nothing outweighing the price. The rivets stick out on the Old Timer which keeps the key loop from being able to flip up over the blade - or under it if you are closing the knife. This is a good thing and I always felt was a design flaw in the Uncle Henry, as the blade would often strike the key loop when closing. As far as overall quality, the Uncle Henry in its 30 year-old condition is still superior except for the blade tip. With the Old Timer, the thumb lock is way too stiff. I actually bent my thumbnail back trying to push it down enough to release the blade to close it. I'm hoping it will loosen a bit with use. Otherwise, I might need to modify it. The handles are not cut evenly from side to side. One side is cut differently than the other (see photo). The key loop is bent with the tangs where it is riveted to the knife not completely flat on one side, making me wonder if it will slowly grind off the rivet head. The rivet on the key loop is bent as a result, making it, "lean out," on one side. Part of the key loop is scarred deeply, with the appearance that it has been hit with a grinder. There is also a deep scratch on the bottom of the knife, and a couple of scratches on the sides/handles. For the low price of the knife, I'm not sending it back or anything. I like to have a small pocket knife for general chores and will beat it up fairly well anyway. I'm just surprised how Schrade has degraded in its Old Timer quality. Maybe it is just the 10T line. Next payday, I'm ordering another Uncle Henry LB1.
