Kershaw Appa Pocket Knife, All-Black, 2.75 Inch Steel Reverse Tanto Blade, EDC with Assisted Opening, Reversible Pocketclip, Everyday Carry Pocket Knife for Men and Women

This is a great everyday knife. The size was not a surprise, as the dimensions are CLEARLY listed. This is in addition to review photos. I didn't need anything larger, or I would hesitate to carry it. I don't need a bulky knife clipped to my pocket. The handle is just right, even for larger hands. It deploys quickly and smoothly, and looks to be of great quality, despite the price point. There is a lanyard hole on the handle. It needs a sharpening, but has a great edge after that. The serrations on mine are sharp, and do more than provide a certain look like some knives. I feel this was a great value, and recommend this knife.

I highly recommend this knife for anyone looking for a small, portable, and effective tool for everyday carry (EDC). Pros: Perfect Size: The knife is compact and fits comfortably in my hand, making it ideal for those with smaller hands. It's small enough to carry around without being bulky. You can open and close with one hand. Incredibly Sharp: The blade is extremely sharp right out of the box, if you get the bundle with the knife sharpener it sharpens very well. Lightweight & Easy to Control: The knife is very lightweight, which makes it easy to handle and you don’t notice it in your pocket. Convenient Clip: The pocket clip is a great feature. It stays low-profile, so it doesn't stick out far enough to be noticeable, even when sitting down. Great Value: If you purchase the bundle with the knife sharpener for around $20-$25, it’s an excellent deal. Cons: Not for Larger Hands: If you have larger hands or need a bigger knife for heavy-duty tasks, this may not be the right choice for you. Overall, having used many knives in this price range, this one stands out for its balance of sharpness, portability, and value. It's a solid choice for EDC and well worth the price.

Great knife. Very sharp, easy to open and close, light weight, great size. This is the knife I carry every day. If I lost it I'd buy another just like it. Not the most expensive knife I own but my favorite.

Perfect for the price. Ultralite and quality carbon steel. Pretty sharp, but made it better with a few hits on the leather 😎 Great quality small edc folder.

I have a number of folding knives that run the gamut of quality and function. My Buck 110 is a beautifully made and even functional knife but generally too big for EDC. I suspect that is the case with many knife collectors who get folders with 4" or larger blades because the knife looks "cool" or it's well-made and designed. This little Kershaw might not seem like a manly enough knife but it fulfills it's role as something you'll carry constantly without you or anyone else being aware of its presence. It's easy for my long fingers to manipulate and it opens in a flash with just the right amount of pressure from your index finger. The blade does not fly open if you inadvertently drop the knife and it stays closed securely in a pocket. Blade has a sharp point and a gradual curve that I find useful for most light duty tasks. The clip is secure and deep enough without the knife being difficult to locate and draw. There is a trapezoidal lanyard hole for those rare birds who like to use them. I find that all-black knives fulfill one function all too well- they're difficult to find in the dark if you drop them. I guess the desire for that "tactical" look overrides functionality. I cut a couple of small pieces of reflective tape to put on the flat portions of the scales to help me locate it in that situation. Overall, this Chinese made knife is well worth the $15 price and is likely to become an EDC knife that never sees a storage box or display case.

A really nice knife at a decent cost. Size, look, feel, action....all good.

For a sub $20 knife not on sale this is a good knife. It is light, thin and small. The opening and closing action is safe and predictable if this is your first flick open action knife. If you have had more expensive and more experience with knives then look elsewhere if you think this cheapie will compare to more expensive knives. It was sharp pointy out of the box.

Appears to be a great knife for the price. I bought this for work to replace my Spyderco delica that's currently MIA. I wanted a serrated blade for special use cases. It's very light weight, small but not too small (I can get a full sized grip with my medium sized hands). Decent higher carbon steel (dulls quicker but easier to sharpen). The black finish should protect against corrosion. Great flipping action. Liner lock and washers are tight with no wobble. Mine is perfectly centered. Great value for money. Cons: It's a bit "tactical" for my taste The grips aren't very grippy No thumb stud for opening
