Kershaw Shuffle II Folding Pocket Knife, Small, Lightweight Utility and Multi-Function Knife, Multiple Styles

I've bought a couple of them over the years. While the price has just about doubled since i got the first one, it is an awesome little knife. Unfortunately my first one was confiscated by the German police. I didn't realize it was in my carry on at the time. Made it through Chicago - O'Hare and the airport in Stockholm just fine. But was caught in Stuttgart while flying home. It was super embarrassing at the time, but funny to think about it now. It's my favorite little knife.

This fits all my EDC wants and I was crushed when I lost my last one. Nothing else fits as well.

It came very sharp out the box. The detent was very difficult but after a little modification, it works good now. Good price. Would Recommend.

This is a perfect EDC knife. Great size for typical tasks, and comes VERY sharp from the factory.

I just received this today, and I have to say that I am very pleased. I haven't put it to the test of abuse yet, but these are my first impressions.The described size of it is deceptive. It's by far more comfortable in my large hands than I expected. It's a tiny knife that fits like a bigger one. The ergonomics are excellent. More important all of the action is very smooth and very solid. No noticeable wobbly bits. Stays firmly closed and open, and doesn't want to be anything other than one of the two unless it's told to. The factory edge is, as expected, quite sharp.Everything is extremely comfortable. The wide spacing between the thumb stud and handle is especially worth note, as it makes the blade very easy to deploy even while wearing gloves. The overall "broadness" makes it very easy to keep in hand. And the robust "bottle opener" makes for enough counterweight to give a nice balance. The overall weight and feel is very light. While nothing about the construction feels "weak".My one complaint is, that while the rest of the knife seems to be made for big clumbsy hands, the safety lock is very tiny and barely protrudes. So closing the blade could be a challenge with gloves or in the cold with numb fingers. Any other possible complaint can be answered with "you should have bought a different style of knife.".I've included pictures comparing it to my old EDC, a Gerber Evo, that's lasted me about 9 years. The two shouldn't be compared in the same category but I feel it is relevant for size comparison.Considering the price, unless you need a bigger blade, this seems to be a really good option.**Update**I changed it to a 5 star. This tiny little guy has turned into my shop go-to. The edge is extremely easy to maintain and holds well. The screwdriver and bottle opener have both proven much more useful than I expected. But probably the most important is the stubby tanto blade shape and ergonomics. This has effectively turned into a folding pocket chisel for me. The fat short blade with so much grip space makes it very controllable for precise but powerful work.Also ran it through 20' of cardboard, with a few plastic packing straps along the way (the shop had received a shipment of aluminum box tube, wrapped in cardboard and straps), in a single go and it didn't even slow down to think about it.Supurb little beater knife and I almost want to stock up on them exactly for that purpose.

Solid construction. Easy to open and close safely, and it doesn't open when I don't want it to. Comfortable for my medium-sized hands. The blade has little to no wiggle, and is quite sharp out of the box. I was able to get it sharper fairly easily as well. The American tanto blade shape adds an unexpected amount of utility that you don't get from the usual curved edge blades.The blade-lock is fairly solid, but I would not trust it under extreme force for puncturing of upward force because of how easily it can be unlocked with one finger (read: I would NOT recommend this knife for any self defense purposes). My only major complaint would be the pocket clip bends rather easily, rendering it somewhat useless unless you are able to bend it back into shape. For the price, it is a very good utility blade. I also like the added utility of the metal loop on the end of the handle: it can be used for a variety of purposes such as a small pry-bar, flat-head screwdriver, or bottle opener.

I fly a lot and TSA makes me throw out a lot of pocket knives. So I buy a lot of pocket knives. This is the best one. My favorite. I misplaced it and recently found it. I was way too excited about it. I came back here to buy a backup and decided to right a review.
