After about 7 months of being pulled out dozens of times a day, I must admit that the retention of the knife in the sheath has less of the 'click' it did when it came out of the box. The closest thing to a negative I could give would be the steel, as although it's perfectly useable, you can definitely feel it getting blunt after a few weeks, but that's why I went with the Wharncliffe blade shape - a straight edge is so easy to sharpen, and a few minutes on a stone gets this thing back to the razor sharp edge it had when it came out the box.Īnother slight negative I would give would be the retention in the sheath. Slim, c*le (so the customers don't think I'm there to m*r them), and super easy to deploy, use, and replace one-handed whilst carrying stuff this knife does everything I could want. A nice, thin, light neck knife was just what the doctor ordered, and the Minimalist was the perfect cure. I hated the chore of digging a knife out of my already stuffed pockets, and I didn't want to use a pocket clip or belt knife because of the fear of it scratching tables or other furniture on the shop floor as I walk past. Nothing too heavy duty, but there's plenty of it. I work as a labourer/handyman in a furniture shop, which involves a lot of cutting tasks - tape, cardboard, cable ties, bubble wrap, cling film, you name it. Posted by ImaginaryWalrus on 26th Aug 2016 Overall very disappointed with this product.įantastic knife, sharp blade, handle looks odd in the photos but fits the hand nicely, good solid neck sheath. It is not a cheap product for what it is but I dont expect to be loosing it when carrying it in the way it is intended to be carried. But you cannot call this and EDC neck knife when it is not fit to be worn around the neck everyday. The knife itself is of good quality and I like the handle. I have now had two of these knives and on both occasions the knife has fallen out if the sheath when around my neck. 1 Blade is good Product is not fit for EDC use.

Will be looking into a way of configuring for horizontal carry as the supplied belt clip only allows vertical carry. Extremely sharp and works great as a neck knife or worn vertically on a belt. Just received today and so far am very impressed with this little fixed blade. The sheath has great retention and the belt clip is OK for horizontal carry! All in I'm 100% happy and would gladly recommend this little fella to anyone in the market for a small fixed. I bought this for light whittling duties and it really does excel, great fit in my large hands despite its diminutive stature, very secure. On to the little knife itself, what can I say? 5 minutes or less on the strop and it puts any scalpel to shame. I especially like the belt clip which gives another carrying option to the neck, nice touch which isn't often seenįirstly absolutely stunning service from HH as always! Very fast delivery and zero drama. It's a bit smaller than I thought it'd be for some reason but that doesn't detract from it's form or sharpness, both of which are excellent.
