Pros

It is razor sharp and good for small tasks. It's very lightweight and comfortable in hand. The steel isn't the highest quality, but it is easy to resharpen.

    An enfranchised knife person will have no trouble with it but if theres a shortcoming here its that it could lead to a dull life in the hands of someone that uses it but cant be bothered to maintain it
