I was interested in purchasing a MicroTech OFT knife when I found these and decided to give them a try. The quality is very good for the knife and I am rather please with it.
PROS: Well built knife and a great value. It has worked flawlessly (after the first operation). I would certainly purchase again.
CONS: I did have one activation issue on the first activation. The blade came out but did not lock and would not poll back in. I manually pulled the blade out until it locked, and after that it has worked perfect.
My only other CON is the belt case. I HATE IT. The catch to keep it closed is easy enough to open, but requires two hands to close and catch. It seriously needs a button snap or a magnetic latch, preferably magnetic. The knife also comes with a very nice case that can carry a couple of knives, perfect to put knives in that you collect. But for me this knife is to carry/wear on my belt, that pouch is a bitter dissapointment.
Amazing knife
Knife Out-The-Front Damascus Steel MD1DP / $69.99 I really like the quick double action of this knife. You know your holding a very good quality knife as soon as you pick it up. The fact it comes with a nice storage container and carrying case make it a perfect gift for that person that is hard to find the right gift for. 🎁
Excellent weight and grip size for medium to large hands. Perfect size for discreet edc or gentleman’s knife. Would be a little heavy for inside coat pocket carry but perfect blade size and feel for pocket carry. Not as tight lockup as d2 firecracker knife but very satisfied with damascus styled steel and build materials and quality. Any fine tuning I can handle myself. This is my third purchase and am extremely pleased with purchase and shipping and products.
Good quality. Perfect fit for pocket
