Tekna TEK-XE XTRA-EDGE 1-1/2-Inch Keyring Knife, Black

I've been carrying one of these knives on my keychain for years. They're awesome. They don't fall out of the sheath. They're super sharp. And they're not noticeable on your keychain. Most people can't tell that I'm carrying a knife. They're as useful for opening Amazon boxes as they are for protection. I bought this one to clip onto a bag that I take on my morning walks. It's a companion to the one that lives on my keychain.

This is the best keychain. It doesn't look like a knife and it's so well hidden. Super accessible and sharp, sharp, sharp. Being a single female out there, this is the perfect hidden gem for safety. It's compact and sits with your keys. No bulky pepper spray. No need to carry your pistol. No digging for ANYTHING. Just pop it off the key chain and BOOOOM!!! My dad tries to steal it all the time. Now I can give him his own. He can use this awesome little razor sharp slicer for just about anything. Gotta get this bad boy!

I know I already reviewed this thing... oh well. Anyway, this knife came sharp enough, and it seems to lock into the sheath securely enough. It's a pretty nice size for pocketing, bit large for a keychain in my opinion, but probably doable for most. Seems like a winner. But, before I gave up on this knife, the blade/tang came separated from the handle, twice! The first time was tame enough, it just kind of flopped out and got stuck in the box I was cutting. The second time, it decided to fly out, then I had a blade flying across my room, and at that point I figured... Probably best to chalk this one up to a loss. Seems like a lesson one learns in Knife Construction 101...

I open the package and realize it’s made in USA and I feel pride and marvel how it can be $15 and I go to pull the sheath off and the blade comes right out of the handle with it. Disappointed. I can probably smear some JB Weld in the slit where the blade goes and fix it. Otherwise, the quality of the metal and the sheath and handle are nice. I saw this on wealljuggleknives channel and he said his needed a slight reprofile, but mine seems decent. Except the blade falling out thing. I could return it, but I think I will fix it myself.

Cool little knife

handle failure? Probably should have squeezed handle together while reinforcing top of knife with index finger to avoid this issue. The two holes on the tang make it a back up arrowhead, spearhead, lance...or just wrap the handle in 1.8mm paracord or bees waxed natural twine.

Very handy knife, easy to carry, and has held up for a long time. It's small enough that it fits in the little watch pocket on my jeans. The cover for the blade is very secure, and has never come off.It's pretty small, and I mainly use it to open packages, cut cord, etc. I don't know if I'd want to peel an apple or anything else very precise due to the small handle, though.One warning: the hole where the clip attaches cracked on mine early on. I had it on a keyring at the time, but not any more;,it still works as a pocket knife, but I can't really use it on my keyring any more.

Nice compact backup knife. Plenty sharp to cut heavy lines.
