Pros

The wave opening system works very well also, took very little time to get used to and now i find myself grabbing a different knife and disappointed it doesn't open when i draw it from my pocket. The only thing that has loosened on this knife is the p... Read More

The blade is heavy and has stood up to * and functioned above my expectations. The locking mechanism is solid and dependable even when stressed. The blade can be easily tightened with a screwdriver if there is ever any wiggle. My only complaint is my ... Read More

Cons

I am shocked that this has the kershaw name on it! Kershaw usually never lets me down, but this knife did just that. I notified the seller and they will return accept it for return.

The blade is not sharp at all, and only edged on one side. This speaks to very poor sharpening, and cutting corners. This is not a knife i would call dependable and despite decent design the materials and finish of the blade leaves a lot to be desired... Read More

Clip is very tight and difficult to clip on clothing (included jean pocket). It also pulls on the pocket and prevents the knife from opening using the wave about 1/2 the time in my experience. Much better luck with the wave mechanism when the clip was... Read More

Quality

This has all the quality and weight of a high end knife.

Handle feels great in hand with various grips, the build is solid with good lockup and the emerson wave functions as it should.

I know i should not expect my one knife to be great at everything, but sometimes this blade profile is just not good at one of ... Read More

Versus this knife that has a flat bottom that allows you to drive and penetrate much harder especially with the tanto edge and ... Read More

Price

For the price it is a great every day carry knife.

This knife for the money is an awesome buy.

I have a real emerson knife and for the money this is close as you will get without spending money on an emerson.

I wish there was an affordable, deep carry clip option.

Packaging/appearance

Even the box that the knife came in has this artwork too.

Competitiveness

This is very close to being as good as the actual emerson brand.

The cqc-8k is a much less expensive, chinese-made, tactical folder closely resembling the american-made emerson cqc-7bw.

I have an emerson brand almost the same knife that cost over $200.

Was trying to find something similar to the other cqc i believe it’s called the “5k” (the one that has the bowie edge).
