Review: A Companion of Steel and Quiet Resolve - The MTech USA MT-A882 Pocket Folding Knife is a tool that inspires both respect and reassurance, much like a steadfast companion on a journey through the unpredictable paths of life. Its blade opens with a smoothness that suggests careful craftsmanship, and once deployed, it feels balanced in the hand, neither heavy nor cumbersome, yet capable of the work required. There is a certain poetry in its simplicity: a knife that is unpretentious yet reliable, ready for tasks both mundane and demanding, from slicing rope to preparing kindling for a small fire. The locking mechanism is secure, giving confidence that the blade will hold when called upon, and the handle offers a firm grip, allowing precise control without discomfort. I award it five stars, for it embodies practicality and subtle elegance, a small but enduring companion for those who appreciate tools that combine utility with thoughtfulness. In a world of hurried craftsmanship and fleeting convenience, this knife stands as a reminder that diligence and care in design yield instruments worthy of trust.
Review: It’s nicer than i expected! - **i’m getting sick of desertcart being filled w fake reviews, so i started adding this disclaimer to my reviews- i bought this item with my own hard earned dollars - i received nothing in exchange for my review therefore my fellow desertcart enthusiasts can be assured that it is unbiased and honest. I hope it helps you** This knife is fantastic! I have bought a few knives on desertcart and usually you get what you pay for, but for under $10 this bad boy far exceeded my expectations especially when compared to knives in that same price range. I got the gold blade w silver body and it is classy and eye catching without being overly flashy. It looks like it is worth a lot more than i paid for it- I love it. The size and weight are great - it is ultra portable yet it still feels quite sturdy. The assisted opening is so strong, the recoil when its blade kicks into place is akin to that of firing a small gun lol. This is not a bad thing, it just caught me by surprise the first time i opened it and it almost flew right out of my hand. My only knock is that the pocket clip is really tight. Like i cant even slide a sheet of paper between it. I bought a “comprehensive” set of torx bits just so i could loosen it but even the smallest bit i had (t10) was too big for the screws on the clip....in the future i suggest the manufacturer include information about the size of the screws (especially since they seem smaller than any standard size torx) so consumers can purchase the correct tools for maintenance or if thats a hassle maybe just dont tighten the clip to the point where its no longer functional... 🤷🏼‍♀️ Overall tho, thats an easily fixable issue once i find the right size torx - so i would still highly recommend this knife. I may even buy a couple for gifts....It offers a lot of bang for your buck.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A small knife that's big on features
*by D***P on June 4, 2016*

NOTE: I forgot to mention in my first review that I am left-handed, and knives made for right-handers like the two I bought, present some extra challenges to lefties in how they are opened and closed, how they are carried and deployed. Keep that in mind if you are also a lefty like me. I also decided to rate it four stars (up from the three I initially gave it due to its rather "robust" opening mechanism (I explain it in my review). I'm going to add a video of it being flipped open, because, in this case, a short video is worth 1,000 words). Being a lefty, what makes this knife and the other one I bought a little hard to use are the facts that they are made for right-handed users and have flat handles that makes rotating them into position somewhat tricky. It takes a little practice to do it without fumbling, but as long as you're someone who isn't "all thumbs" you'll master it in 15 minutes or less. A few days ago I decided to visit Amazon and buy a knife. I wanted to find one that was less than $25, easy to carry as an everyday knife, and one that was highly rated by users. However, I was literally blown away by the number of choices available to me. Between the knives made by Tac-Force and MTech, I spent the entire day looking through virtually their entire catalog (if they had a catalog, that is). I decided to set some filters to limit the number of choices. The first filter I set was look at knives only rated four stars above. The next filter I said was the maximum price of $25. I decided to leave the other filters alone and see what came up. There are other brands that I evaluated besides the two I mentioned. In particular, the Rat and Rat 2 were the highest-rated knives I could find on Amazon. Given their quality, the price of them was well worth it -- even though they were slightly above my maximum limit. The most expensive knife that I would consider was the Hoffman Richter HR-30 Tactical Folding Knife at $29.95. With an overall rating of 4.8 that included 81% of the ratings being marked five stars, this one seemed like a winner on all counts. The only problem is that it was more than I wanted to spend on that day. I may go back another day to get, but I was determined to stay within my budget. After searching through the plethora of choices, I wound up taking two and ordering them on the same day. They were the TAC Force TF-762DW Assisted Opening Tactical Folding Knife, and the MTech USA MT-A882BL Spring Assist Folding Knife. Although these two knives were both flippers, they couldn't be more different if you tried to pick him that way. Let me begin by giving you a review of the smaller knife, the MTech MT-888 2BL. The MTech is a perfect size for carrying a pocket or purse. When folded, it is 3 inches in length. When opened, the blade is 2.75 inches long. The blue blade is eye-catching, and the oval opening at the top is reminiscent of the SOG models and cost 2 to 3 times its price of $7.25! Given its low price, and was not expecting it to be of high quality. When the knife arrived, I was amazed at how well the knife was made. For such a small knife, it was fairly heavy but solidly made. However, here's where I must address its major caveat. The spring in and the flipper mechanism is so strong it can open up a folded Bowie knife, and if the knife blade was not securely fastened to the handle, it would send it flying 15 feet on a straight line. To say that this little knife opens with authority would be an understatement. Not only does it open quick but the sound it makes for a knife is analogous to the sound a shotgun makes when pumping it. Now, they say that the sound of a shotgun being pumped is enough to scare bad guys away. And that is a myth. However, if there was ever a sound made by a knife strong enough to scare bad guy away, this knife would be it. On the good side, the liner lock in this knife is one of the best I've ever seen. Not only is it solid and keeps the knife firmly in its open position, releasing the lock could not be more easy. With small knives, there's always a risk of having the blade overpowering the liner lock in closing on your fingers. Not so with this knife. When the blade is retracted, it stiffens up halfway back so there is no danger of accidentally closing on your fingers when you are retracting the blade back into the handle On the downside, if the blade is not fully retracted back into its handle, there is a risk of flipping open the blade by accident -- especially when withdrawing it from a pocket. I don't know if that's something that can be corrected or will soften over time, but it's something for the prospective buyer to consider. For this reason, I am assigning three stars. If not for the overpowering spring action, I would rate it five stars. Now onto the second knife. Whereas the MTech flipped open in the blink of an eye, the Tac-Force opens up in a very leisurely fashion. In fact, you can control how quickly.you want the blade to open by modulating the amount of force you apply to the flipper. This is a feature that I happen to like a lot. If you need open quickly, you simply flick your finger more quickly. If you're using the knife for work or to open a package, you can open it as slowly as you would a folding knife. I'm not going to go into an extensive review of the knife here. Rather, I'm going to provide that under its own heading. If you want to know what I thought about the Tac-Force knife you can go there. But, suffice to say, I've rated it five stars with the only downside being the inability to relocate the clip, and the fact that as a left-hander, it's a bit tricky getting a knife positions in my hand so that I can open it without a lot of maneuvering. The clip is very tight and I struggled to slide it on the outside pocket of a pair of dress pants (see photo 11). I finally had to bend the clip back with a screwdriver to add enough space for the clip to slide in my pocket (photo12) I forget to mention that this knife is also easily opened and closed, one-handed, using the cutout at the top of the blade. Closing the knife, one-handed, takes some practice. There's a lot to like about this slick-little knife (once you take care to close the blade all the way down) and keep in mind how quickly it opens. (I'm going to add a short video to demonstrate it). Definitely, well worth the price. MTech USA MT-A882BL Spring Assist Folding Knife, Blue Blade, Black Handle, 3-Inch Closed
