Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

A must have if you plan to use a folder for self-defense. Outstanding training weapon.

Received one of these as a christmas gift. Very worthwhile purchase. My 5 year old loves it! It’s worth every penny.

Very high quality, super robust, heavy, durable. I’m impressed by how durable and sturdy it is. Excellent balance and weight approximation.

Clip is reversible, as advertised. Still works with no loosening after many openings. All you need to do is make a small grove in the retention hole.



Cons

Two flaws make this folding knife unusable. The clip side needs to be anodized blue if they're going to stick with the one-piece metal design. The detent holds onto the blade so firmly that it can't be thumbed open. That's a major safety hazard, as it...  Read More

Quality


We were sceptical of the quality when we were looking at the photo on amazon but to both our surprise this training knife is en...  Read More


Sturdy well designed and top quality product.


Just be aware of the emerson wave hook as it can gouge your training partner during high speed application.


It's the only thing out on the market that i can find besides the spyderco verision which is way overpriced.

Price


Well worth the price and fast delivery as well.


It used to be about 22 bucks but see the price goes up to about 27.

Competitiveness


In my opinion, it is every bit as good as the fox karambit trainer for a fraction of the price.


Great, well built trainer at about a third the cost of spyderco.


For people who are doing left handed work, or want to put an aftermarket retaining ring on their trainer and set it up for a ka...  Read More


I saw a lot of trainers like this asking for a much higher price.

    I have trained with rubber and hard plastic trainers over the years they are ok


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But struggle to withstand the real life force that is generated from more advanced and agressive training sessions


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They drilled holes for the clip on the other side of the handle for left handed deployment from the pocket for left handed people but you cant actually attach the screws


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    No threading they never tapped the holes the screws have nothing to bite onto


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have two of these and both have the same unfortunate issue so its not an accident


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The holes either need built back up and then tapped or need slightly bigger screws


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its a bigger issue with this knife than with others because its meant to deploy from the pocket and being clipped properly to the pocket is a key factor that enables that to happen


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For people who are doing left handed work or want to put an aftermarket retaining ring on their trainer and set it up for a karambit draw and deploy this knifes just no good
