| | Best knife under 30 bucks. | 2023-10-22
Good quality blade and comfortable grip
| | 2.0 out of 5 stars Thumb stud is loose brand new | 2023-09-28
The thumb stud that you push against to open the knife is a little loose wobbly. There's no way to use any wrench or screwdriver to tighten it. After I read some more reviews, now I see that this is a recurring problem. I was hoping I would not get a bad one, this must be a roll of the dice. Other than that the knife is everything as expected. It is sharp and clean. I have this Smith & Wesson border guard and I like it a lot but it's too heavy for some of the things I do. Too bad it
| | Well designed | 2023-09-15
Better than I thought, well designed knife.
| | 5.0 out of 5 stars Cannot be delivered to South Korea. | 2023-07-18
Probably a great knife, Couldn't receive it as South Korean customs reviewed it as a dangerous weapon.
| | Extremely well made blade | 2023-03-15
Awesome knife it’s made as well as $100.00 knives superior quality blade made of superior steel to superior handle material it’s razor sharp blade slices through the meat like chainsaw it’s fancy lanyard with nice decorative beads this is my new extra tool on my side I’m a police officer and have been in the military and this will replace my $130.00 blade I carried for over 20 years this has passed every test I’ve putting through and still remains razor sharp manufacturer made this heavy duty
| | 4.0 out of 5 stars Great knife for years | 2023-03-14
I bought a S&W knife about 12 years ago at a AutoZone, best 15$ I ever spent. Always stayed sharp and the serrated edge works great. Only problem is if your flip it open to hard, it gets a little stuck....I know my ex stole this knife, out of all my knives, that's the one she took. I will be buying another one.
| | 5.0 out of 5 stars Great EDC blade | 2023-02-18
I carried this blade on countless shifts. It’s still in the rotation.
| | 5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect everyday knife | 2023-01-07
Convenient for daily carrying. Works great and good quality for an affordable price. Been using this one for over a year.
| | 5.0 out of 5 stars Solid knife at a great price | 2022-12-17
I bought my first one of these knives about 10 years ago at a sporting goods store. It has held up as a daily pocket knife for that long. I saw it again here on Amazon and ordered another S&W because the price is still reasonable and, as I have depended on this knife as a go-to for so long, I just treated myself to another just keeping in the truck. I have other knives- Benchmades, in particular- but my S&W knife has held up over the years, and without the $200+ price tag of the
| | Last blade you will ever own! | 2022-11-04
Very strong sharp. I'm a truck driver in food service an I put it threw he**... works great
| | 4.0 out of 5 stars Paint on handle starts to fade and knife can get stuck open | 2022-10-31
I love this knife, for the price its great. But a couple issues have started now that its a month old. The handle the paint starts to flake off which is a contrast from black to bright sliver or aluminum. Also should you flick it open too hard the lock locks up so you are unable to open with any type of thumb strength and you have to use something to press it down to release which is any issue.
| | S&W Border Guard knife is a good value | 2022-09-20
Smith and Wesson Border Guard knife is well made. It does not have flaws (bent blade, etc.) as with other inexpensive knives. It fits well and feels good in your hand. Overall, it is a lot of knife for a reasonable amount of money.
| | 4.0 out of 5 stars Good little knife | 2022-08-30
My only complaint is you can’t reverse the pocket clip other then that I love the knife.
| | 5,0 von 5 Sternen Great Quality | 2022-07-15
Bought one in 2016 and still going strong. Lost the pin to open the blade but replaced it with a zip tie’s end.

| | 1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy it. | 2022-06-09
Biggest hunk of crap I ever owned. Didn't hold an edge. Locked once I awhile. Heavy as a brick,and the blade came out of the handle after12 hours . Now big texx gives honest reviews I won't lie to you. I did like the black color though.

| | The Blade Gets Stuck Open | 2022-04-25
The blade gets stuck open half the time I use the knife. I haven't even done anything strenuous with it yet. Very disappointing!!

Perfecto
| | Great EDC for the price, but check them before giving them as gifts | 2022-01-09
I purchased 8 of these as Christmas gifts for employees. I gave them to other people a few years ago and they loved them, so I decided to include them this year with a different group of people. The only issue I had was two of these ended up scratched and appeared to be used or returned....really not sure. They were all packaged in individual S&W boxes and appeared to be new, but I didn't check each one. I found out after Christmas that two of the knives were "worn" and

I like it. Very convenient to use.
| | Perfect size for everyday use | 2021-08-07
I have expensive knives and low budget knives. They all work for me at different levels. I use this knife for just about everything and it just keeps on going. Great purchase
| | Great Daily Carry | 2021-07-20
I carry this every day and it gets used a lot. I have sharpened it twice now and gets a good edge for an inexpensive knife. I will buy another when I loose this one.

| | Great value for the money. Highly recommended | 2021-06-02
Great value for the money. Impressive how sharp it is right out of the box. My daily carry on knife.
| | Great knife, as described! | 2021-05-10
The knife is as described and send well made. It is a bit smaller than I thought it would be, though the size description is accurate. I'm still very happy with my purchase.
| | Easiest carry | 2021-03-03
So slim and light you might think that you left it at home. Razor sharp or close to it out of the box. I will be buying more of these.
| | Look solid & easy to operate! | 2021-02-08
Enough said. It’s a little smaller than I anticipated (nice!) and it opens up & fold down smoothly.

This Is A Great Little Pocket Knife At An Outstanding Price. I Would Most Certainly Purchase More As Gifts For Friends. Indeed Recommend.
| | Great as always from S&W. | 2020-10-16
Best bang for your buck, high quality- always expected from S&W. My go-to carry/everyday pocket knife.

Sehr leicht und handlich und trotzdem Top verarbeitet
| | SENT ME A VERY USED KNIFE | 2020-09-28
I'm not sure if this was a joke or just pure mistake, but the knife I received was used. It looks like someone owned the knife for years. The gears or folding mechanism even squeaked when I unfolded the knife. The handle and blade are chipped, scuffed, and very weathered. The tip of the knife was gone. The box for the knife was beat up as well. Just old looking, and maybe got wet with water. Terrible purchase.

| | 3,0 von 5 Sternen Das Messer ist stumpf. | 2020-08-20
Es liegt gut in der Hand, passt gut in die Hosentasche, aber im Garten bekomme ich nicht mal ne Physalis vom Strauch geschnitten, weil es so unglaublich stumpf ist.

Ok I buy same knife 5 years ago. The deal on Amazon was even cheaper than the last I pay 5 years ago anyway this knife will last forever now I have two and for me this is the best TANTO knife on the market. Sturdy light weight, long lasting good quality.

I literally bought this knife over 10 years ago in 2009. I still have it and use it for random around the house stuff daily. Just buy this knife.

Authenticity of Reviews

Trustami is an independent service provider for the display of external reviews. Trustami imports customer ratings from third-party platforms.

What is Trustami

Trustami regularly scans the internet for new reviews and collect them in one place, in order to make them available to interested parties at a glance.

We want to make it as easy as possible for every internet user to look up products. Instead of relying on just one source, we provide a single point of contact to get easily all the reviews on a product.

Trustami does not generate new reviews and stays independent in order to make the internet more transparent. We automatically search on popular internet platforms and websites to find reviews and identify products. Our claim here is to provide a helpful set of product information that anyone can rely on. The aggregation of product data is done as good as possible and may include multiple versions of one product.

Trustami was created as a project of the Technical University of Berlin (TUB) with the aim of making the internet more trustworthy. Research in the field of "Social Media Analytics & Big Data" at the Chair of Information and Communication Management (IKM) provided a first prototype that enabled the collection of reputation data. With further development and funding Trustami became an independent spin-off.
