CRKT Clever Girl

I bought this knife for self defense. The steel is pretty soft. The blade came really sharp, though. The knife has a decent grip. It does not hold an edge very long, though. For self defense, it does what I want.

It looks amazing. But it's made of good quality steel. I've carried it on me many times and no problem yet. The sheath is nice, it's a thumb screw instead of Velcro. My main concern is that if it will hold the sheath together when the clip is clipped on it and I'm taking the knife out in dark places. It has some Velcro on the knife and sheath to keep it secure. It comes with two safety straps that wrap around the handle to make it harder to remove if you need to but if you're looking for something quick to draw it's not a quick pull and shoot. This is my first folding knife and it works pretty well but a lot to get used to. Overall great quality for a good price and will continue to use. I would buy it again.

Fits nicely in my back pocket. Sheathed knife is easily removed and remains secure.

Very good weight for a belt knife. You will be very surprised by the size. It is not huge like most knives. This is great knife for me as I have short and large hands. It fits both my small and large hands very well. You won't be dissapointed if you purchase this great value of a knife. This one I have is black.

Amazing product! Love it so much, very light weight. Comes with a very good strap that I can adjust to any position of the belt

First thing you need to know is that I am a fan of the Ontario knife company, for those not familiar Ontario knives are extremely tough, no nonsense knives, most at a great price. I say that because that's what the Girl by CRKT reminds me of, only not as tough. But that doesn't mean it isn't good, just means I have high expectations for what a knife should be, as do many who like the bushcraft lifestyle, it's kind of a must to be hardcore in my opinion. The sheath is what first attracted me to the blade, very minimalistic and very well made, the Kydex will flex if need be to prevent injury to yourself, as well as allow for one-handed deployment of the knife. The blade comes nice and sharp out of the box and it's nice and pointy so it won't slip through your fingers easily, but the spine could be a little thicker and not so stiff for me to do fine work with it. The finish on the blade could also be improved but not by much, overall it is an excellent blade, you just need to be mindful of what you're buying it for. For bushcrafting, this would be an ideal blade, however if you are planning on carrying this in an IWB holster for self defense you may want to consider a bigger, thicker, and fuller blade. I have seen it be done, however I don't believe I would feel comfortable depending on it for personal defense, unless you are prepared to use multiple blades. It's just a bit too small to be used for most things. As a sheath knife it would be very handy for just about anything you can think of, and is not too expensive to get another one if it gets lost or broken, which is what you should be prepared to do when depending on it for bushcraft or survival. The blade is very light and so is the sheath, this can be both good and bad, I think that the only drawback of this particular knife and its sheath, is that you can not get a very firm grip on the blade,

I got this knife because it is simple, elegant, strong and very, very pointy. This is an all purpose dagger that fits well on the body, concealed, or worn as an ornament for your car's trunk, or as a trophy for when you slay the lion. Seriously, I have carried a knife daily for many years, both edc and survival and hunting knives and I really like this piece.

Just... so amazing.., so good that i just got the one too. It fits perfectly on my index finger for knife to hand tactics.

This is not a combat, big knife. That's why it was cheap. For EDC or self defense, it works fine. 4.5 stars instead of 5, because there is not more CRKT designs in small and big edc formats. Especially in small knives with blades longer than three inch. I'd be willing to spend a few dollars more, to be assured to have better options for different carry options. BUT, i will not loose my review for being a good customer!

I bought this as a birthday present for my daughter and she loves it!

Love it

I like this knife because it's small and easy to carry. It fits in my pocket without me noticing. The only thing that would make it better is if there was a sheath included so you could put it on your belt or something.

This is my second one I have bought and I am very happy with it. It is a great knife for everyday carry
