Steinbrucke Pocket knife with 3.1”- EDCFolding Knife 9Cr18Mov High Performance Stainless Steel Partially Serrated Blade with Reversible Clip,3.3Oz Titanium coated 60-61 HRC

I carry this knife on my person. Although it is not spring loaded. It opens great with one hand. I use it every day around the house. Open and cut up boxes and bags. Great quality. Although the knife requires sharpening every so often it only takes a few passes through the sharpener.

The knife has tip down carry, so that is a big plus. It has a good frame lock. It is a great smaller knife for everyday use and the blade steel is great. its a true stainless so it shouldn't rust with minimal upkeep. The blade is also titanium coated for extra rust protection. The handles are also made of steel just a different grade. and like the blade they seem to be titanium coated. 2 issues: #1- Issue is the blade style but I knew the style of blade before purchase. #2 when first out of the box, The knife did not open all the way and therefore did not lock into place. This issue was fixed with a bit of oil.

As you can see in the photo, I have it side by side with one of my leeks that I made brass scales for and peened onto the frame.So the pivot screws are a little weird and only the clip side inserts into the scales flush with the surface of the handle. I accidentally scratched the scales and it showed a copper color. I was quite pleased with this actually. I took it apart and sanded it down and reassembled it.The assisted opening spring is quite similar to the leeks. The pivot screws I think, is a little larger. I think the knife is a combination of yhe leek and the scallion. And yes, it is very sharp. Has pretty clean action but the main pivot screws was too tight when it arrived. That was fixed immediately once I reassembled it. I haven't taken any photos of the copper coloring scales yet, plus this review would probably be removed if I showed the knife altered in any way.So it's not actually complete copper scales, it's steel then copper then anoyher layer of steel or electroplating.I will be installing bearings in a couple days.Also heads up to anyone taking it apart, the blade will get off kilter once you unscrew and re screw the pivot screws. To fix it, place a thick piece of cardboard in between the blade and the handle and tighten the pivot screws fully, remove the cardboard and the blade should be centered.The blade is pretty secure when locked and the locking mechanism works really well. It has Teflon washers so the opening is pretty smooth. It has excellent weight to it too.I have no clue what steel the blade is made out of. I'm really hoping it's just some tool steel, as it's cheap and quite strong stuff. Super easy to temper and heat treat too.The clip can be flipped upside down and screwed in, which is how I prefer it on all knives. So of course I did that. The connection of the clip and the knife handle is very strong.All in all I have to say this was a pretty dang good deal. Definitely worth the price. I wish they had more options for color and finish actually. I'd happily buy several of these. I'm tempted to order a couple more just to have sitting around. Can't really argue at this price range! Very solid feeling blade!

Love the size and it's thin profile, fits nice in the pocket. Feels high quality and blad is sharp. There are some rough edges on the top part of the blade by where it is attached but the handle is very smooth and comfortable to hold. Overall happy with this purchase.

For the price it’s a good knife. The knife opens fast and without any problems. The lockup is very nice on the knife and it is very slim so it doesn’t feel bulky in your pocket. The pocket clip is stiff but keeps the knife in place. I don’t know if it’s really 14C28N steel. There are no markings on the blade and nothing on the box about the steel. I have knives with 12c27 steel that have a better blade. It is very sharp and will cut a few hairs on my arm, just not shaving sharpOverall, this is a good knife and I have been carrying it daily because of the size and it’s thin profile.I have uploaded a picture of it next to my Cara Cara2 for size comparison

The knife is very similar to my Kershaw Leek, in appearance and silhouette, differ in having a more pronounced flipper. The blade is thicker stock than the Leek, with a very similar profile. It does not have the sliding blade lock of the Leek, and the blade is made of thicker stock, both of these are strengths in my opinion. The overall fit and finish was excellent, with one minor exception: I had to touch up the contact point on the blade to smooth up the engagement and release. The knife was extremely sharp right out of the box. I am a bit skeptical about the steel, which is supposedly Sandvik 14C28N. However, it did not hold its edge well, compared to my Leek, when cutting cardboard and nylon rope, although it was very easy, resharpen to be very sharp indeed. One-handed opening was easy, if a bit slow, with the flipper. However, it was nearly impossible using the thumb studs. This is in contrast the my Leek, and most other assisted knives, that open very quickly and easily with both thumb studs, or a flipper. On the bright side, the relatively large flipper makes it easier to close using one hand than the Leek. Overall, I am quite favorably impressed with the knife. It is far better than I expected at such a low price and I would buy it again.

I keep this hanging in the barn for when I need a knife out there and don't have one in my pocket. It's pretty sharp.

This is a very nice knife. It’s heavy and sharp. I bought this for my husband and I was told…it’s my new favorite knife. So I’d say that’s five stars.
