I would treat it more as a toy that you have to be careful with, rather than as a knife you can rely on. I recommend it if someone is looking for a gadget to start learning tricks. The price is reasonable for what you get.

A good butterfly knife for beginners, overall it is well-made, but in a few places the edges were not precisely finished and were poorly cast. However, for this price, it is a good choice and worth buying. I recommend it.

The knife is really well made, it's sharp and looks beautiful. The only small flaw is the screws, but after tightening them twice they hold perfectly, no looseness.

I'm very positively surprised by this little knife. It works perfectly and is sharp enough. I bought it to practice some basic tricks. Today I'll put some blue glue on the screws so it won't fall apart too quickly, because as you know, the screws tend to loosen from flipping. Quick service. I recommend militaria.pl

For such a price, this is really a nice product. Very solidly made and at the same time visually also looks great, and as for the screws, so far nothing bad has happened to them.

Knife purchased for my teenage son so he could practice "butterfly" tricks. Decent workmanship, the knife works smoothly, doesn’t lose screws, so it fulfilled its intended purpose. In this budget, really OK. Unfortunately, after some time it ended up in a drawer and has been lying there ever since. In my opinion, this model is definitely for people who prefer such solutions. As EDC, it's a bit intimidating, evokes unpleasant associations. If someone likes and wants to practice for relaxation, I recommend it. It also works well for making sandwiches outside the home—due to its construction, you can rinse it easily and quickly. Generally, I recommend it. I deduct a star for its threatening appearance.

The butterfly knife is sharp. There’s a lot of play in the handle when folding and unfolding. The lock is loose, the safety catch falls out, and the knife opens by itself. For the price, it’s all understandable.
-
In my opinion, it's ideal for beginners, cheap, and decently made. I advise buying thread glue right away. I lost one pin. After gluing, it’s been holding well for a year now.

Good for the price, medium weight, needs frequent adjustment, looks great aesthetically, like every lock it could be better—let’s see how long the clip lasts. I recommend it maybe because I have a soft spot for jokers.

For beginners, in my opinion, it's perfect: cheap and well-made. I recommend buying thread-locking glue right away. I lost one pin. After gluing, it has been holding well for a year now.

Overall, you can easily learn spinning with it. The price is very favorable for the quality; it's perfect for me to have some fun. It's hard to find something better at this price. I also recommend others to try it with confidence.
-
It didn't suit me, it was hard to close it with the clip when fully extended. I’m happy with it, it’s sharp, I recommend it. For this money, it’s good. Nice.

I bought it for fun based on reviews, so I kind of knew what to expect, but the knife still surprised me. It's heavy, looks very solid, the handle steel has a satin finish, and the first impression is great.

Ideal knife, sharp and feels good in the hand. Good for beginners learning tricks. Fast shipping, low price as always. You won't find anything better for this money.

It completely fell apart after 2 months of flipping it. From constant tightening the threads got stripped; even a small flip makes it fall apart. The lock mechanism is poorly constructed; after the first disassembly the cylinder holding the lock got lost somewhere and wasn’t really useful or even functional. As I mentioned before it wears out quickly and is completely loose.
