Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

I'm one of those guys who always has a pocket knife on him, so i appreciate that its a slim profile and goes unnoticed clipped to my pocket all day until i reach for it. It has a very deep carry clip and the clip is reversible. This is one of my two e...  Read More

The knife has good edge out of box and can be sharpened easily. It takes a wicked edge and is a relatively good slicer for what you would expect with the blade design. Zero slop, still takes an edge, good enough.

Kershaw knives are durable, and they are the best quality for the price. No complaints. For a sub $50, it's well built and high quality.

Snap opener, great liner lock, overall excellent knife for the money. It opens smoothly with the lever. Assist open is very reliable.

Imo it is a nice looking knife and the finish is superb. Fits bracing under the knuckles as well for smaller hands. The titanium coating feels good in the hand.



Cons

The blade scrapes the sheath of the handle when retracting. It's heavy for what you get and you get wobble if you move it back and forth. Now the blade wobbles when extended.

Quality


The fit and finish is good, the flipper is good, the lock works well and the clip is great and allows the knife to sit low in the pocket.


The spring assist open works great i can deploy it as fast as my full auto gerber and benchmade knives.


The pocket clip, after three years of abuse, snapped!


5lb push to open, the liner lock takes roughly two pounds to clear it, and it takes roughly three pounds applied near the tip w...  Read More

Price


It checks all the boxes i wanted in an inexpensive knife.


It's a nice looking knife at a very reasonable price.


Unfortunately, starting in 11/21 i believe there is a $25 fee for a blade that does not fall under the warranty.


I have silly knives that cost into the multiple hundreds of dollars.

Shipping


I received the kershaw cryo one week ago and really like it.


Came in ahead of time and in good condition.


I put in the request, expecting it to ship sometime in the next few weeks, but it arrived in under a week.

Packaging/appearance


Has opened many boxes and done all the things one needs an edc knife to do.


No fuss, just a little envelope with the pocket clip and two fresh screws.

Competitiveness


Pains me to say it but it’s better in every way than the usa made knives at tsc i was comparing it to.


You can also send it back to kershaw for sharpening for as long as you own it.
