Perfect Daily Carry Knife

This is my favorite knife and I think it's the perfect daily carry knife. I've carried it every day for two years and have bought it as a gift for my girlfriend and all of my siblings. My only complaint is I wish I could find the multipack I saw in store once and I wish it wasn't a Walmart exclusive. If you're even considering carrying a knife daily just order this one because it's cheap enough that if you don't love it, it can just be a work knife. (The pictured watch is 42mm for reference and I have slightly below average size hands for a man)

acceptable affordable assisted open.

steel choice could be better at holding an edge, hardware holding the clip on is sub-optimal, handle material won't take a ton of abuse. having said this, it's a good quality assisted opener for 15 dollars that is big enough to handle most jobs that isn't so large you feel like youre compensating for something. I've bought 4 in the last 10 years and all but once was because I lost my last one. would recommend.
