Blade Tech Mouse Lite

[melt]

Does anyone know anything about or have any experience with a Blade Tech Mouse Lite knife or Blade Tech knives in general?

I don't have any Blade Tech knives, but the reviews I have read here from owners about the Mouse Lite and Blade Tech knives overall have all been positive.

Yes. I have a few BladeTech knives, including the Mouse Lite. BladeTech knives, in my opinion, rival Spyderco in terms of fit, finish, and reliabilty (this means I think they're great)! I only wish they were more easily found/available. The Mouse Lite is a great, sturdy little folder and is well worth the meager price they ask!:thumbup:

I have the Purple mouse and it is a pretty nice little knife .It is a bit hard to open because the backspring is very stiff but I have no complaints ,quality is great and edge holding is good too.

I recently posted on my new Bladetech Ratel, similar to a Mouse Lite in size but with a clip point blade instead of skinning blade like the Mouse.

As I mentioned in my post, the Ratels are new for 2009. New Graham hasthem for about $23 including shipping. You can also get them directly from Blade-Tech, for about $24-27 including shipping (depending how many you order). I'm very pleased.

Nutnfancy did a not too stellar review on the mouse. Though to be fair he was mostly just whining about the lack of dismembering capability.

Thanks for all the feed back. Where are these made?

Honestly I've been thinking of getting a Mouse but was unsure how wide the handle was and if it would make a good keychain knife.I presently have a Ladybug attached to my keys.

Mine says Taiwan on the back of the blade tang.

I wouldn't call it a keychain knife myself, but I suppose it would be possible. Here are a couple of comparison shots.

The Mouse is a lot more bulk for a little more cutting edge. On the plus side, it is a lot easier for me to hold than the Ladybug.

Thanks for the pics,the mouse is definitely has a wider handle than the ladybug by double;looks like it's around a little more than an inch wide.With the ladybug,I do find it's a bit small but it's never bothered me and I can see how people with large hands may say it's small. For me,I'm going to get a mouse and see how it is a keychain knife.For a knife which can be found for under $20 online, is not much when compared to the cost of the ladybug
