Warikomi Knife
Warikomi knife blade is made from SK High Carbon steel, which hides into the iron nickel plated handle. The V-shaped blade lets you use the knife on either hand.
The blade opens by Chikiri lever and stays open with friction, withouth a separate locking mechanism. When the knife is brand new, the blade can be a bit tight but will loosen up over time. If it gets too loose, it can be tightened by hammering the pivot - a great feature of the Higonokami knife.

Good basic knife with one flaw
This is good back-up blade due to its simplicity and size. Works as intended, except for one thing: the underside of the handle is very sharp, it might even cut your fingers in a tight grip. The blade itself seems quite tough, unfortunately combined with the sharp handle makes for a somewhat unbalanced knife.

The first friction folder
The blade seems very good, time will tell. The metal handle is unnecessarily sharp at the edges without light sanding. And it's cold here in Finnish winter. I am satisfied with the knife itself.

Terä vaikuttaa erittäin hyvältä, aika näyttää. Metallinen kahva reunoiltaan turhan terävä ilman kevyttä hiomista. Ja kylmähän se on täällä Suomen talvessa. Olen kyllä tyytyväinen itse veitseen.

A bit dull, but great knife overall.
Perfect edc, great conversation starter. I wish it came with the paper box.

Best Value knife
For the price you can't make anything wrong with that.
Perfect knife to throw in a bag in case you forgot your other.
Only criticism I have is that the handle which also decides how easy the blades opens was to tight I almost couldn't open it but you I managed to bend it fairly easy to the perfect tightness.
