1.0 out of 5 stars does not stay together, July 25, 2009

By	Stephen M. Winkler (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The screw holding the knife to the frame of the knife that it swivels around will not stay tightened. The knife I bought has another screw that has the same problem. For a knife with only 4 screws, that's a major problem, maybe it was specific to one knife, but I would not recommend this knife to anyone. Also, I have had this item for no more than one month

1.0 out of 5 stars Hard to use, very disappointing., June 28, 2009

By	Mr. Awesome (The DMV) - See all my reviews

I had high hopes for this knife, considering smith and wesson's long history of creating these products. I had only intended on using the knife for utility, such as opening and braking down boxes. But I cannot easily use it for anything.
The real issue, is the knife is very hard to open, especially with one hand. Pressing outward on the thumb stud will not open the blade. I have to use two hands, and push on the rear thumb guard, while pulling the front thumb guard with a second hand. The thumb stud does not seem to serve any function whatsoever.
Any folding blade should be cable of opening with one hand. If not, I'd recommend a fixed blade. And I would recommend looking past this knife for another option.
