Highlights
Quality
Well made, looks like it will last a life time.
Well made, used it on a pistol case to cut out the foam.
The glue came off the strip and the set become unattached and blades went everywhere.
I always lose it because it's just a #11 knife and it looks like every other pen and it doesn't have a home.
Price
Don't waste your time or $$$ with knock-offs!
Consider the price, and what you get for it, and just be grateful!
I almost bought this at a brick and mortar store, but it was about 1/3 of the price on amazon.
Shipping
However the delivery person left my package on the steps out in the open for anyone to see never knocking on the door.
Packaging/appearance
They’re beautiful and i’m in love with the little box!
I was so happy to find this set in a wooden box, like the original box i inherited from a family member.
Others complained that the box was made of mdf with only a thin layer of wood on the outside.
