Customer Reviews Are Coming In

Thanks for swinging by – I appreciate it!

When I’m shopping for something new, I’m a big fan of perusing the reviews that past customers posted for products that they've purchased while I’m considering purchasing it as well. I find that the customer reviews provide a wealth of knowledge about the specific products and sometimes offer insights into the associated merchant and how they do business.

This is the main reason why I installed the 3^rd party customer review platform, Judge.me, onto the SlicKnives website from the beginning. I wanted to offer our customers an opportunity to share their feedback when we started selling our first series of knives a couple of months ago.

I’m happy to share that some of our first customers that obtained knives from SlicKnives are beginning to share review posts based on their experiences. Thank you, Customers! I am grateful for the responses and hope that our customers continue to post feedback when the review request email is sent out a couple of weeks after the knives are delivered.

I encourage everyone to take time to review customer reviews as you shop and leave customer reviews after you purchase something as you go about your daily routine. Please, take some time to peruse SlicKnives’ Customer Reviews by clicking on the Judge.me Reviews button floating along the right edge of the screen.

Thank you,

Brendon

Very solid and robust knife

Very solid and robust knife. Great steel, snappy action, just an all around great workhorse knife. Will see plenty of pocket time!

My 2nd one

I bought the hunter 5 black originally. I liked it some much, I bought a 2nd one when they went on sale. You really can't beat this deal for a good solid fixed blade. Hair popping sharp too.

Great design! G10 handles feel

Love it! Built well

Love it! Built well, great edge retention!

Great value in a work tool!

Overall very impressed with this knife's specs and value.

Some of the things I like the most are the fantastic spearpoint Kephart style blade, the well shaped handle, four position pocket clip, excellent lockup, and great weight for its size.

That size is one thing I wasn't quite prepared for. Even though I knew it was a 3.5" blade the 8.5" overall size is quite substantial. That makes it an awesome choice for a work knife, but probably not ideal for the office. The PB washers also make it a nice choice for work environments. As a fan of washers in general these are breaking in nicely. Very smooth. For those looking for a drop shut action you may prefer something else like their flipper on bearings.

Scales are nice peel ply texture without being overly grippy and should wear in nicely. I really like the color swap options they sell although I haven't tried them. If they offer a 3D scale choice in the future I will definitely pick that up. The flats are nice and the overall height helps fill the hand, but I think if I were really putting them to use I'd want something beefier to avoid hot spots.

The blade is great. With a tall flat grind, neutral point, nice belly, and even factory grind it is a great cutter. The stock is a bit beefy and the taper only goes an inch or so back from the tip so you have great piercing strength. The aggressive stonewash hides any wear marks nicely. I put it to work in the kitchen and it rough chopped root veggies with enthusiasm. Worked great at dinner as a steak knife too. I don't think it will replace a paring knife for detail work, but the 3.5" blade would be right at home in a utility or camp knife role.

One thing I would change on my model is the detent is just slightly lighter than I would like. A touch more resistance would make the deployment much more satisfying to pop out. This doesn't really affect performance and it's not so light that the blade will accidentally open so I just chalk that up to personal preference.

Overall the FlicKnives Pocket 3.5 is a killer value and feels like a spiritual successor to the RAT1 with slight upgrades in steel and scale material for a competitive price. It's not going to compete with the fidget monsters we see released by so many newer brands these days, but it's not trying to. The FlicKnives takes itself just a bit more seriously and is a purpose built design you can tell was well thought through. As a tool, it excels
