Steel Will Cutjack C22M-1BL Linerlock, 3.0" (C22M- 1BL)

I was really surprised at the quality fit and finish of this knife. The blade and handle are really done well. The handle is comfortable and it flips beautifully. It is very solid. It locks up solid with no play. Plus, it came very sharp. I like it so much that I bought 3 more Steel Will knives including a Modus Carbon Fiber with M390 blade, a Resident, and another Cutjack. All of them are perfect!

Four stars. First off, the Cutjack Mini is one amazing knife for the price. It looks like a beauty, and the D2 steel cuts like a champ. The blade has just the right balance between thin slicing ability and a big, rugged belly for every day carry. The ergonomics are good, but its slightly larger cousins, the Modus and Intrigue Mini, fit like a glove. Their extra quarter inch makes all the difference. All that said, I bought two Cutjack Minis and had to return them both. One was almost impossibly difficult to flip, while the other was so soft it took a lot of wrist flick to deploy. The replacements are better, but still not great. The Modus and Intrigue Mini both flipped like champs right out of the box. Steel Will is more than capable of making a great budget flipper, but the Cutjack Mini isn't quite there yet.

I got one of the good ones! Flipper deploys smoothly, though I suspect if it was on bearings it would be even smoother. But I have no problem with it, even with my little girly fingers. Knife was acceptably sharp out of the box, opens packages and slices cardboard with ease. I'm not sure this will replace my Delica, but it's going to get used. I'm looking forward to taking it camping in the spring and seeing how it handles camp chores.

This is a great smaller knife at a very good price. D2 steel has been around for quite a while and it remains an excellent steel for a knife. The finish is very good and the size if just right for carrying. It is now my EDC knife. Easy to open and rides nicely in my pocket.

This knife had the potential to be my new favorite EDC folder. Comfortable handle and size for my long, skinny hands. Perfect for EDC in the shallower pockets of women's pants. Attractive design, and felt sturdy and well-made while still being light weight. Unfortunately it required a ton of pressure to flip open the blade. That, combined with the sharp, agressive texturing on the flipper made for a painful, finger-denting experience. I'm not sure if the super tight open was a QC issue on this particular knife, or if it would've loosened with use. But either way, there was no way I could go through bruising up my index finger to find out! But if this issue was resolved, I would've given this knife 5 stars and bought a second in a different color!

This knife is good for the money. The D2 steel is one of the best budget steels and holds an edge for quite a long time. This knife carries well in the pocket and is a good knife. The FRN scales feel a little cheap and the action feels cheap, but it is cheap. This knife is well worth the money and once you upgrade, it makes a great gift to a non-knife person.

I purchased this item on the back of some great reviews I found on YouTube--pleased to say that I am not disappointed. This is the first non-assisted flipper that I've been happy with. It has a nice detent (I tried the Ruike P801 and the Buck Vantage Pro). I would describe this flipper tab as more of a push-button style activation, which has a great response. It's butter-smooth. Blade centering was perfect, and there was only very minor side-to-side blade play fresh out of the box. The D2 steel blade didn't come quite as sharp as I would have liked, but after a couple minutes of stropping I'm very happy with it. If it holds up as well as my Rat 2 in D2, I'm going to really love this thing. The only improvement that could be made and still keep it in this price range would be the addition of a deep carry clip. I will probably have to purchase an after-market clip to make sure there's no chance it falls out of my pocket at work. UPDATE: The D2 in this knife seems to be more prone to rust spots than the D2 in my Rat Model 2. If you live somewhere with a lot of moisture, just be aware. Taking one star away because I'm not a fan of having to clean off soft rust spots every couple days. If that doesn't bother you, this is still an awesome value knife. I will be upgrading the M390 version soon, because I DO like the knife a lot.

This knife is a decent value. You'd better be proficient in sharpening D2 steel though. Once sharp it will cut tissue paper into ribbons. Flips open easily and the finger choil makes close work very controllable. I like it. So far I am carrying it every day. I also like that it is just a hair under 3" to comply with the idiotic knife laws out there.
