Good Solid Knife November 18, 2008

This is a nice knife, sturdy, and well constructed. It feels good in your hand and has a real strong blade. For 10 bucks this knife is a steal!!
Nice, well built knife November 17, 2008
I simply wanted a nice little knife to have around to help open boxes and misc. things like that. I figure for the price I couldn't go wrong (plus I needed a bit more in my cart for free shipping!)
Once I got my hands on it, I realized it wasn't just some cheap dollar knife like most of my previous ones. It actually has some weight to it. Nothing feels flexible or wobbly. The blade doesn't wobble back and forth. The lock is very firm and won't slip loose... All in all, a very nice little knife.
About my only complaints, it's a bit difficult to open with one hand for me. The little nub to flip the blade out is quite small and very close to the casing, making it quite hard to get my thumb onto it. Also, I wish it had a lock back mechanism, but I knew it didn't before purchasing it... Just a personal preference of mine.
A hidden steal November 17, 2008
I've owned dozens of knives over the years, kershaw, gerber, etc. This is similar quality for a fraction of the price. I have used this knife for a few years now and I realized that at some point down the line, I may have to replace it. I'm writing this review as I'm buying another knife (or two) for later. It would be a steal at twice the price. Great combination of size and weight.
 Great Knife November 5, 2008
I am very happy with this knife. I agree with the people that wrote before , its good because it is very sharp, keeps the sharp blade a long time, has a good size and the clip is good. I dont have the problem i had with other knives about the blade accidentally getting open. And the price is good too
Great budget knife with 440C stainless blade in tanto shape November 4, 2008

This is a really great knife for daily carry purposes. The workmanship is quite good for a liner lock and it even has nice touches like plastic washers between the blade and handle. Makes for very smooth and easy operation when opening and closing it.
The blade is made of 440C stainless which is a much nicer metal than the 440A blades I've owned. The knife came out of the box ready to shave arm hair with and takes little effort to make the edge even sharper. It slices paper, cardboard, plastic wrapping, and other such items like it's nothing.
The clip sits a bit low on the knife; below the hinge joint. So the knife sticks out of my pocket more than my Gerber Evo Jr. does. However, it's actually kind of nice. Makes the knife easier to get out of my pocket to do work with. Makes it more accessible and usable at the cost of a tad bit less discretion in public. The clip is removable as well via 3 torx screws.
The liner lock portion locks up securely, even when creeping the blade open. So no problems there.
Some of my old liner locks didn't hold their blades closed -- the blades would sometimes open a tad bit in my pocket. This knife has a subtle blade hold-in indention on the blade and liner lock strip. So when the blade is pushed closed, it is held in place ever so slightly. It has enough tension to prevent accidental openings but not enough to make opening it on purpose a problem.
The knurled handle patterning combined with the drilled holes allow for a very secure grip. The knife as a whole weighs much less than I thought it would. The handle is lightweight and balanced well with the blade's weight.
Smith and Wesson did a great job on this model by creating an inexpensive liner lock knife that feels solid, sharpens extremely well, has a solid lockup on the liner, is lightweight, and very affordable. It's a shame I saw this knife after buying a Gerber Evo Jr. They sold for roughly the same price at the stores I bought them at and the S&W CK5TBS has much better metal in the blade. I like my knives to stay sharp and so far this one excels at that job.
