Pleasantly surprised, actually an awesome knife!
So yeah, I was sucked in by the DCA pitch and the price was just fine for an experimental foray in into the CJRB brand. My current favorite EDC is a Ritter (Hogue) RSK Mk1-G2 and upon opening the box, the overall design similarities are obvious. The G10 handles are very nicely finished and super smooth, yet oddly grippy, especially considering my general preference for textured handles (if you've held an RSK, you know what I mean!). I like holding it. The action was pretty smooth from the first flip but after the next hundred or so, it performs like it's mind-controlled. Totally loving the action! The thumb studs and lock studs are superb and seem to have hit the sweet spot without any ridiculously sharp textures (my only complaint with the RSK - you better have calluses!) - they are very smooth and comfortable (and reliable) for opening and closing. The blade isn't premium steel but takes an edge very well and I sorta like sharpening so it get's a thumbs up. I have very large hands and I get about 3 fingers with a bit of pinky on the handle - I have to have a lanyard for good control (which is fine, I like lanyards). I would love to see an XL version with an option for S35VN/S45VN (or Magnacut!) in spite of the goal of a "knife for everyone" with a low price point. I think sales would work out just fine for CJRB! (as I'm writing this, I see a premium version at BladeHQ - Titanium & S90V! Totally getting it!) Anyways, I like this knife a lot more than I thought I would, and I am very impressed with the fit and finish and find myself seeking it out as a fidget monster. Buy one, you'll love it.

Great little knife / Checks many boxes / nice value
Super sharp right out of the box. Nice action. Good size/compact. Not too heavy. Easy to open with the axis lock and a flick of the wrist, or just a downward angle. Easy to close with an upright slightly forward angle, and the weight of the blade. Good length / not too long. Very well designed. And the spring tension on the lock isn’t too bad either. Thumb opening is also easy enough. And nice styling, imo. (Did come from the factory with a bit of dust from the machining. Looked pale. Cleaned up well and darkened with just a bit of water.). Really nice storage case and even a great polishing cloth, which I used to actually clean most of my other knives/blades. Free blade action, and no apparent blade play. Great little knife, especially for the money. When closed, fits entirely in my palm. (Men’s L/XL.) I should probably get another. They say, if you really like one, buy two… DCA, you nailed it! Great design.

Great knife
Ima start off by saying the knife is very sharp. The size is great and it is comfortable to hold too. It feels very smooth when opening or closing. Looks very good too, I got the black one

Pretty solid knife for the money!
Fantastic knife! Took a star off because the cross bar has to much side to side play and it really needs some jimping on the blade spine. Perfect centering, no blade play and nice stone wash finish.

Fantastic Knife and Excellent Design - Very Happy
Most comfortable feeling pocket knife I EDC. The ergonomics of this folding knife fit my hand perfectly, and it disappears in my belt from the moment I put it on until I need it or get ready for bed. Fantastic design, and the blade edge is tough and looks good. Deployment and retraction are very smooth, and very figity if you can call it that. This knife is in my EDC rotation and does exactly what I need it to do.

Very impressed!
My husband uses his knife at home, and work all the time and his old one got really dull. I was unsure when I bought this brand for him, but it's a quality knife. Very sharp and perfect for everything from tearing down boxes to working on machinery.

Amazing value!!
The grips are solid yet almost rubber-like. Very good in wet conditions. And the blade is incredibly sharp. Opening is very smooth with either the thumb stud or opening the lock bar and it swings open with a flick of the wrist. The lock bar button moves a little stiff but seems to be getting better. I wasn’t sure if it would be big enough to feel solid in my hand but it fits well.
