SENCUT ArcBlast Button Lock Knife for EDC, Folding Pocket knife with Aircraft-grade Aluminum Handle and 2.98" 9Cr18MoV Blade, Outdoor Gift for Men and Women S22043B-2 (Silver)

The SENCUT ArcBlast Button Lock Knife is a pocket-sized powerhouse, and let’s be honest—this little guy’s got more style than half the people at your local coffee shop. With its 2.98” 9Cr18MoV blade, it’s got just the right amount of edge without making you feel like you’re carrying around a machete. That blade is sharp enough to cut through anything from Amazon packaging to your “I’m too busy” excuse at work. The button lock mechanism? Smooth as butter. You’ll find yourself flipping it open and closed like you're auditioning for a spy movie—extra points if you make a cool sound when you do it. The aircraft-grade aluminum handle feels like you’re holding a piece of high-tech wizardry, all while keeping the weight down so your pockets don’t sag like an old pair of sweatpants. The black finish adds that sleek, no-nonsense look that says, "I might be small, but I’ll get the job done." Whether you're using it to slice an apple or pretend you're in a high-stakes action scene, this knife's got your back. It’s solid, sharp, and looks good doing it—what more do you need from a pocket knife? A high-five? You got it. Final Verdict: 9 out of 10 -Small in size, big on cool factor. It’s like the Swiss Army knife’s edgier cousin—get one and make your pockets feel like they’ve got a little more swagger.

Never really was much of an EDC person, but this knife really changed that for me. For it's price point you really get a good hollow ground knife. The handle is nice in hand but it is a little slippery. A good grip will fix that. It does make some opening moves a little tricky. The D10(I think) release is not so bad. A few spine taps and the blade is still locked. Also a great fidget too. The pocket clip is polished to a shine - really nice to look at. But, it does get in the way at times as I noticed getting out of my car it does snag sometimes. As for it's edge retention/sharpness it's a little low. It's going to be familar with your strop, but you'll get good use from it. Behind the edge thickness is amazingly small. Super slicy knife. The overall picket knife thickness is small too. It's slim and fits well in the pocket. I wish the screws weren't so strange though. It makes it a bit annoying to tighten down the screws after coming loose. I believe they need a T6 or T8 bit. All in all, this knife is a great value for you money.

This is a beautiful looking knife! I found out that this is made by Civivi as a budget line for them. The quality is wonderful. It does cone with a case and a cleaning cloth. The knife has a lanyard hole, so you can attach a lanyard (not included). The action is great and it is easy to deploy. Once again, this is a wonderful knife to own.

Great cutlery, beautiful, sharp and easy to use. Delivered to the wrong address but recovered

Smoooooth, consistent, button lock works every time. No stick. Easy to use flipper tab or button to deploy, easy to use button to swing smoothly shut in one motion. Shape is comfortable in hand with room for all four fingers. The solid aluminum scales don't have (or need) any steel liners, and it still feels rock solid, giving a snappy metallic 'ting' sound when you flip open the knife. Feels solid but not heavy. Color of the handle is out of this world! It's a rich vibrant red, somehow matte and shimmering a little at the same time. Grip is OK - very slightly slippery, but not a problem at all. I wish the pocket clip was inset flush into the scales, but at least the screw heads are flush with the metal of the clip. All-in-all, I give this a 4.8 star rating, not fancy, not exotic but a solid attractive quality folding knife.

NOTE: This review has been cross-posted to some of the knives mentioned below. NOTE 2: All of the knives I bought were because I found an online review outside of Amazon that gave the knife high marks. Based on the video, each of these looked great and were worthy of a purchase. For some people, any one of these options could be their ideal knife. For me, there are one or two small quirks that keep me from calling it my ideal everyday carry (EDC) knife. For over two months I have been buying and testing knives in search of one that I consider my ideal EDC. I have not found the _ideal_ knife, but there are some that have come close. To start, I bought a couple of "flipper" knives (i.e., ones where you flip a small lever on the bottom to extend the blade) that were either a frame or liner lock. This type of lock means that to retract the blade a small metal plate needs to be moved out of the way before the blade will fold back into the knife handle. These systems are OK and have been around for a very long time. The first few knives I bought were from Kershaw with their SpeedSafe opening mechanism (not pictured). I really like their assisted-opening mechanism, but the pocket-carry on the knives I bought were rather high, which meant a half inch or more of the knife extended out of my pocket when clipped. These knives were also a frame-lock. I kept looking. The first knife I bought on Amazon was the Civivi Mini Praxis (~$30, photo: top, #1, green). Wonderfully smooth action on the flip, with a very easy-to-retract blade. It has a nice deep-carry clip so the knife does not stick out of my pocket. Unfortunately, it is not a button lock. Even so, it is really, really nice and I have kept it in my collection. There are Civivi knives with button locks that I am interested in, but they are a bit more expensive than the $50 ceiling I was trying to stay under. After buying the Mini Praxis I learned about the "button lock" mechanism. In this kind of knife, there is a button on the side of the knife that is pushed to unlock the blade, and then with a flick of the wrist, or just gravity, it falls back into the knife body. Easy close mechanism without having to put your finger in the blade's path to move the frame or liner lock in order to allow the blade to retract. That was when I decided my ideal knife would have a flipper to open, a button lock to close, and a blade approximately 3'' long. For the record, 99% of what I use an EDC for is cutting open or breaking down boxes, or maybe trimming a stray thread off clothing. Therefore, I am not overly concerned with some of the factors online reviewers spend a lot of time discussing (e.g., the type of steel, its corrosion resistance factor, how long it holds an edge, the choil, and amount and size of the jimping). The first button lock I bought was the Flissa button lock (~$25, not pictured). Immediately after opening it, I thought the knife was too big and the action was not nearly as smooth as the Civivi Mini Praxis so it was quickly returned. Next up was the Sencut ArcBlast (~$50, photo: #2, black). Sencut is the more affordable version of the Civivi, which is the more affordable version of We Knives. Think of what Toyota is to Lexus. Phenomenal knife, almost ideal. The one knock I have on this knife is the "bounce." That is, when flipping the blade back into the frame, there is the occasional bounce where the blade does not fully seat. Maybe with more practice this gets better, but it was enough that I kept looking. The Kizer Amicus came next (~$40, photo: #3, white). Another one that is almost ideal. Perfect flipping action with no bounce. Really, really nice action both in and out. The one detractor with this knife is the handle. It is so light and has a rather "plasticky" feel that it almost feels like a toy. Finally, I tried the CJRB Lago (~$50, photo: #4, bottom, black). In comparison to the ArcBlast and the Amicus, this knife is huge. It is about 3/4'' longer (when closed) and heavier. It feels even larger and heavier than the specs imply, especially when flipping open the blade. My initial reaction to this knife was that there was a slight bounce on closing, and that the pivot is not nearly as smooth as the Mini Praxis, ArcBlast, or Amicus. Conversely, the reviewer in the online video I watched said the CJRB Lago was likely going to be one of the, if not the top, knife for his best-of list for flippers / button locks in 2024. So where did I end up? Still looking for that perfect combination of features and price! But for now, I am keeping the non-button lock Civivi, the button lock Sencut ArcBlast, and the button lock Kizer Amicus. I am getting much less bounce on the ArcBlast but still the occasional extra pop on close. I returned the CJRB Lago. I carry the Sencut and Kizer about equally. Both are great knives even though I have one small quibble on each. My search continues. Good luck in finding your ideal EDC! Hope this was helpful.

La calidad general de material, aluminio y acero, el terminado, son muy por arriba de lo esperado por el precio. El funcionamiento es también excelente. Espero que a pesar del uso continuo se mantenga asi. Sin duda la volveria a comprar.
