NedFoss MERMAID II Pocket Knife, 3.18" 14C28N Steel Small EDC Button Lock Knife with Aluminum Handle and Deep Pocket Clip, Perfect Folding Knife for Men Women (Black)

Ned Foss Mermaid- I am very pleased. The price point for the material and build quality is excellent. I was a bit concerned by the picture/video representation of size; it looked to be much larger against the presenter's hand. Having it in my own hand (5ft. 9in., 175lbs., medium glove size) it is a perfect traditional Stiletto size, excellent for everyday carry. Comes with an excellent factory sharpness with a standard grind (looks to be 30°) suitable for rougher work, but as this will be my 'Gentleman Rascal' carry, at first necessity I'll take it to a leaner 15-20°: less durable, but more precise. A tip- a drop of sewing machine oil at the kingpin for quicker opening. My only early complaint is the two pin brace at the hilt; could be improved with a liner spine on the closed side. Overall- exceptionally pleased and strongly recommend as a medium duty daily carry. "Every Gentleman should carry a knife; in case there's cheesecake, or you need to..."

My first NedFoss, and what a pleasant surprise! Razor sharp, solid action, needle-sharp tip, zero wobble or slack, crisp deployment, very satisfying metallic lockup sound. Perfect for non-workplace EDC.

Blade was wonderfully sharpened, and while I may consider adjusting the pivot screw juuuuuuust a hair tighter, I like that this blade not only swings open effortlessly, but stays positively locked in place, and is easy to unlatch. I also like that this knife came with a torx wrench to make said adjustment; it also came with a pretty decent little case, though I find that to be far less useful. As an EDC knife, this'll be in my pocket all the time, but the case will certainly double nicely as an eyeglasses case, so I won't complain. I feel what I paid for this knife, is more than worth it. The finish is great, and the action is butter-smooth. Can't ask for much more, given the price range this knife falls into. I can't imagine I'll have any issues with this, but will try to update this review if anything important is needed. Upgrading from a GVDV knife that had a liner lock that would overshoot the blade, causing it to be stuck open (and would require the use of another flat tool to pop it loose).

There is a chip at the bottom of the blade in the knife which looks like it’s on purpose for the locking mechanism to fit, but it took me a bit to see it so it’s not too bad what they could’ve done is painted that black as well so it’s not obvious to more keen eyed people? But other then that I love the knife, feels great in the hand, sharp, looks amazing, and it’s not heavy or hard to use at all.

Very nice knife. Sharp and very pointy.

Awesome knife, easy open and close one handed. It opens quicker than my push button spring loaded knife. I would recommend it to anyone. Reminds me of the old school switchblades with out the push button and spring. Damb good knife. I think I'm going to have to get another one or two of them for stairs

The knife is awesome 👍🏻

I've started a knife collection and this was the perfect addition. The handle was a little to tight making it hard to open but I used the screwdriver it came with the loosen it a little and now I can open it with ease. Blade came sharp, no damage to the case or knife itself. The knife came with a case, screwdriver and a cloth. It's nice and lightweight so I can carry it in my pocket while at work with no issues. Definitely worth the money, especially with the extra accessories. Definitely good quality, would buy again.

Este es el tercer producto que compro de Ned Foss y la verdad me sorprendió gratamente ya que los materiales y mecánicos de rodamiento hacen que la navaja se opere fácilmente y con suavidad, trae un filo impresionante de fábrica, muy pero muy buen producto, lo volvería a comprar nuevamente sin duda alguna, lo recomiendo ampliamente.
