Tarcus Folding Pocket Knife, 3.5" D2 Steel DLC Blade Carbon Fiber Overlay Handle, Lightweight EDC Knife with Crossbar Lock for Men and Women, Ideal for Camping, Hiking, and Survival

This is my favorite blade profile, full flat grind, a little thinner stock, makes the sharpest slicey blade. This knife works flawlessly! Lightweight, full size. This is one of the best values on Amazon for pocketknives!

Got this mainly for dealing with cardboard and wood and so far it is preforming very well! I needed to take some edges off the handle when i first got it, but once that was done the handle became fairly comfortable. The lock is good and there is no blade play that I noticed. The blade itself came very sharp and held the edge pretty well so far. I am no knife expert and have no way to test if it is really D2 steel, but overall this seems like a very nice knife for the price.

It's a great knife. Saw it on YouTube channel called "knives i guess". He tests knife performance. I bought one after seeing his video. It went on sale and I bought another one. Yeah it's that good.

Good/smooth action, very sharp, easy to handle one handed!

The reason you’d want this knife is because of its light weight. It’s very light and the blade is pretty thin. It’s not flimsy or anything and it seems pretty durable but it’s just thin steel and I wouldn’t use it for anything too rough. I cut tape with it so I haven’t really tested it out much. First impression it’s easy to use and the locking mechanism is cool, makes for a fun little fidget sometimes. The design is a little questionable though, the hole isn’t really wide enough to easily flick open with your thumb. You can do it, once you get your nail in there, it’s just not as natural as my spyderco knife or any other knife that has a hole that serves as a thumb catch. As for the handle the carbon fiber is cool and real. It’s obviously the main reason for the light weight. The pocket clip is fine but I don’t really like it when brands put their annoying logo on the pocket clip for display while it’s in your pocket. But that’s personal preference. Overall it’s a nice knife and you get what you pay for.

Super lightweight and fantastic knife for the price. i have many knives and i can tell this is one of the best under 50 $ range knife

I will say. this knife was done very well. There are some edges in the handle that can become a hotspot but that is an easy fix with a file or sandpaper. The axis style lock was executed perfectly. This $30 knife feels and performs better than any of my Benchmade which is sad since they are the company that has been doing this type of lock for a long time. Centering is perfect and there is zero blade play. No lock stick on the crossbar at all. While I have no way to determine if this is actually D2, it does perform and act like some of my older Medford knives that were done in US produced D2. It takes a very keen edge and strops back to razor sharp very easily. The geometry and shape of the blade was done very well and allows for very good cutting performance. I would buy this all day long over a bugout or similar lightweight EDC knife. This would never replace my Sebenzas but it has been in my pocket nonstop since I got it.

This knife is very light and so far works quite well.
