ST112 Folding Knife

I like it and it is my new EDC. Came very sharp, smooth opening, blade well centered, blade stays parked well and locks open well, nice light weight for carry. Two minor issues. 1. the sides are a bit smooth for gripping and 2. the screws that retain the clip are a bit too thick and as others have mentioned, do crimp pocket seams. Time will tell if the blade holds an edge well. Update: After a few weeks of carry, I don't like how smooth the Miacarta is. In the pictures it appears to be textured - it is not. Also, as a few others have commented, the liner lock is too low in the frame and is not easy to depress and the screws for the clip do prevent the clip from riding over the pocket seam for jeans. I still like the knife and will continue to carry it but I will take time to correct the deficiencies that I noted. Still it is a very good knife and at a good price. Maybe I'm being picky for a knife in this price range but I would have paid more for it if it came more to my liking. (better textured scales, easier liner lock, flatter clip screws) Update: Darn!! Only 2 weeks old and I lost it - nowhere to be found. I ordered another Sitivien - the 127. It's a little different but I hope it's as good or better than the 112. (It was 8 bucks more.) I will review that one when it arrives

I really like this knife, it’s will built and just solid. Lightweight and comfortable to use. The blade is D2 steel which is pretty strong and holds a pretty good edge without having to continually sharpened. Using a good knife steel straightens the edge easily enough, keeping you with a sharp knife for months on end. Only drawback is also the D2 because it isn’t overly corrosion resistant, so make sure and watch for rust and treat when needed. For the price it’s fantastic!

Well made knife with full size, comfortable handle of Micarta, surprising at this price. D2 steel with a nice done edge. Some complain about the pocket clip, I think it's fine. The liner lock didn't work on the first deployment out of the box, but no problems since. The top of the blade is slick and could use some jimping. I like the blade profile - it's a pocket version of my old Western Cutlery Skinner fixed blade.

The photo is A Civivi, a QSP and this knife. All relatively budget knives, Civivi $50, QSP $32 and this one $19. In terms of quality there is no difference between them. How they can make this for $19 is a mystery to me. Perfectly centered blade, ball bearing action is silky smooth, micarta beautifully finished with smooth edges. Blade incredibly sharp. I am incredibly impressed with this period. And for $19 is an absolute steal. I’ll be buying more of these.

Lock up is tight. The scales are nice feeling and look like a cross between wood and sanded fiberglass fabric. The stainless looks to be quality and the blade is sharp. My favorite feature is the clip which is offset and allows the knife to be inserted deeper into the pocket. I barely notice this knife in my pocket. The clip hasn't snagged anything either. I own several other knives, kershaw, schrade, eafengrow. This is my favorite EDC for now. Incredible value! Shout out to 704 tactical...

Very good knife, very well made, fits perfectly in my hand. Has everything I want in a knife. More than worth the money. 👍👍

Great design, build quality, size, weight + price. D2 blade is sharp (even sharper after I stropped it on a leather belt). Opens/closes like butter. Overall, an excellent buy for the money.

I will start this review by saying I love stivian and this knife a lot! This is actually my second of the same one. The only reason I feel the need to give 4 starts is because this one came with (rust?) spots on it. It's a bummer, I really love this knife and it still does all the things I need it to, but I don't think it should look like that brand new. Still gonna be my every day knife regardless though! Love the weight, it flips smoothly, holds a point well. Perfect perfect size for me. Just wish it didn't come with those spots on it.
