The blade is very nice, tough and sharp enough to draw cut the invoice. If the handle were ever to fail, you can use the blade alone fairly comfortably in a variety of grips. Speaking of which, the plastic handles are actually stronger than I expected. The plastic feels firm with nice texture to it.
There is a problem, though. For a $12 knife, I can hardly complain, but if you look at the photo carefully, you see the tip of the blade actually intersects the end hole of the handle, which means it contacts the brass rivet holding the handle together. I could probably do nothing and be perfectly satisfied with the performance of the knife, but it irks me. I think the easiest way is to install a larger diameter pin, which will let the blade rest above the hole. The more labor intensive, but ultimately more satisfying solution is to make a new handle.
I think this will be a great knife once I work out the kinks and give the blade a proper sharpening. :thumbup:
