"I've had my share of knives, but the Kershaw Gravel Folding Pocket Knife has truly impressed me with its quality and performance. The 2.5-inch reverse tanto blade arrived sharp and ready to use. Its shape is versatile, handling everything from package opening to detailed tasks easily. I love the SpeedSafe assisted opening, which works smoothly after breaking it in. Although I usually prefer larger knives, the Gravel's compact size has proven advantageous for discreet carrying.

The weight is just right; I never forget it's in my pocket. The clip is handy, and while it's not spring loaded and needs a good swing to open, I appreciate the ease of replacing blades without needing tools. It cuts through tape and strings effortlessly. I'm enjoying this knife!"

I'm planning to stock up on these for Christmas gifts!"

I've carried it for about 6 years and have gone through several due to my heavy usage. If you're looking for a razor-sharp knife at a great price, this is the one!"

"I've only had this knife for 2 days, but my initial impression is very positive. After extensive shopping for a folding EDC knife, I found this Kershaw, which has a Tanto blade and partially serrated edge. I accidentally cut my finger while checking the sharpness, proving it's razor-sharp! My only minor concerns are the handle's texture design and that it could be longer by an inch. Overall, the knife is fantastic and the assisted flipper works perfectly."}
