An unconventional design and blade shape. It's interesting to use and carry. Plus points for the Polish designer. The build quality at this price is very decent. I recommend giving it a try.

Light, folding general-purpose knife designed by one of the most famous Polish knife makers, Trollsky. The blade has a Drop Point profile made from D2 tool steel, known for its excellent cutting properties, high resistance to wear and mechanical damage. It is a steel highly favored by users due to its properties. The blade is hardened to a hardness of 59-61 HRC and finished with a satin, method, giving a semi-matte effect.
The knife is opened using a flipper, which serves as a guard against slipping the hand onto the cutting edge when the blade is deployed. On the spine of the blade, at the thumb rest area, there's jimping(notching) that facilitates control over the blade during cutting. The Mandu model is equipped with an automatically locking Double Detent, which keeps the blade in the open position. The lock can be released by simply folding the blade. Additionally, this lock provides safety by preventing accidental opening during transport.
The knife frame consists of steel liners and a backspacer on which the scales are mounted, made from Micarta,, a material characterized by very good usability properties - it's resistant to moisture, temperature changes, most solvents and acids, and resistant to mechanical damage. The handle with an ergonomic shape fits very well in the hand and provides a stable and strong grip. A steel, springy clip in the tip-up position allows convenient carrying of the tool.

A knife from the best Polish knifemaker here, and on top of that it's a folding knife—I didn't expect that. Very nice, cool, works great on bearings.

The knife is beautifully designed and crafted with character and good ergonomics, the blade profile has great cutting properties ... but the "locking system" used is a complete mistake ... The blade folds onto your hand ... the "lock" is released, sometimes unexpectedly, with the slightest touch on the spine of the knife ... even at the base of the blade ... I don't think a worse rating can be given for an EDC tool ... like this: You can't rely on it ... you can't be sure how it will behave ... It's a shame because I'm a fan of Trollsky ... The knife is already on its way back ... to the store ...

The knife is great, very well made, sharp, shaves forearms, the lack of a lock on such a small knife is not a problem. Besides, I treat it more as a "collectible" item, considering that an average person of middle age has practically zero chance of buying a handmade Trollsky knife ;)

Hello, the knife arrived lightning fast, as usual, the workmanship is great, nothing to complain about, it’s very sharp, shaves the forearm with no problem. The only downside is the lack of a strong lock, but that's not an issue because this is a small knife and doesn’t need one. Nice, handy knife for an affordable price. I recommend it.

The knife is nice, but due to the locking mechanism used, it's debatable as a working tool. A light press of the thumb while working in the intended spot (jimping on the blade) releases the lock and folds the blade.

Hello, I just received this small folder, as usual, express delivery. Well, what can I say, very nice workmanship, nothing to complain about, the only thing I miss is a strong lock, but that's just a detail because it's small and I won't be doing anything serious with it. I recommend it, great knife.

I completely do not understand the idea behind the lack of a lock on this knife. You have to be very careful when operating the blade. With a lock, I would give it 5 stars because the design is practical, but because of the lack of a lock, I have to deduct one star.
