Petrified Fish puts out some of the best budget knives on the market, that is a fact! All knives are on bearings and the fit and finish is excellent. The 818 is a perfect EDC choice. It is light, thin and quickly deployed. This resembles a gentlemen's knife and it is pointy and nimble The price is excellent!!! Other companies would charge double or triple! The D2 steel is a good heat treated D2. I keep grabbing My 818 it rides good in pocket and I don't feel bad actually using it at work ($$).
I have had the carbon fiber version for 6 months and I just ordered 2 more (blue/satin and black/stone wash g10). Get This knife!
you will not regret it and it will quickly become one of your favorites daily pocket knives. 🐟
The quality you get for the price you pay for this knife blows my mind. This knife works very well. Great quality D2. Only problem I have is a use a guide rod system to sharpen and the blade has no real flat spot to clamp on to. Other than that it's a great knife
Coming from a bechmade 940-1, I can guarantee that I would take this one over and over again over the 940. For this price, it "doesn't hurt" to properly use them or in the worst scenario to loose them.
The deploiment and locking is simply delicius. The steel performs very well and can be sharpened quite fast to razor sharp levels using a simple CC4 and it's leather strop.
So it's a very good option for anybody looking for an affordable or a good knife, because this beast is both of them.
I was expecting a cheap import when I ordered this. I was wrong. This thing is so quick smooth and sharp right out of the box. I got tje blue G10, and getting ready to order the green mircarta next. Everyone that sees this knife has been very impressed with it.
Très bon et beau couteau. Qualité des finitions parfaite, rien à redire.
