The appeal of the project lies in its small size. Flawless execution, a high level of fit and finish. Centering is superb. The sharpness is almost too good. Practical as an EDC that disappears in the pants pocket. It fits in the fifth pocket of jeans and you practically forget about it. However, the project has a major flaw - it is only equipped with a front flipper. It's difficult to use one-handed because of the very short handle; it's hard to safely rest the knife against your palm while opening. This is somewhat ill-conceived, considering the factory sharpness and the blade geometry, it’s easy to get cut. When pressing the flipper, a lever is created and the knife tends to pop out of your hand. Unfortunately, I have to take away three stars, which is a shame because at first glance it made a good impression. Maybe with more training the situation will improve.

Compact, pocket-friendly folding knife featuring a short blade crafted by renowned Polish knifemaker Ostap Hel
Tanto-style blade is constructed from premium M390 steel, hardened to 59-61 HRC. Renowned for exceptional edge retention and outstanding corrosion resistance, it is finished with a satin process to achieve a semi-matte appearance.
Rapid blade deployment is ensured via a ceramic ball-bearing pivot and flipper. Reliable operation is further secured by a Frame Lock, while jimping on the spine enhances thumb grip during use.
Handle comprises two scales fastened to the frame by screws. Crafted from 6AL4V Titanium, the design delivers both lightweight handling and superior strength. Practical portability is provided by a titanium clip, enabling secure attachment to a belt, pocket, or gear.

Small, discreet shark tooth. ;) True - it's an expensive toy, but the materials used and the craftsmanship somehow justify the price. You really can always have this little guy with you, and it doesn't bother you even when worn as a neck pendant on a chain. Factory sharp, like crazy. You can get used to the way the blade opens, but people with big hands might have trouble.
