Zelco Knife

I was searching eBay this morning and came across a small Zelco knife, it looked quite nice so I bought it on a whim. Does anybody have any experience with these knifes?

I have not dealt with them, but be sure and give us a write up/report on it.

Only $6.00 - Neat little Mosquito Stinger for 6 dollars.

Be careful... you could poke an eye out with that thing!

The Zelco arrived today and even though it was a bit of a novel design it's not that great. The blade has some marks on it that should not be their if it was stainless steel as it claims in the attached leaflet, but it is sharp and sturdy. I found the handle a bit small for my hands and my hands are not that big so if I were to use it for anything practical I'd probably cut myself in the process but for $5 I can't complain. The carabiner it came with has proved useful though. But if fixed blades are legal were you are then, I don't see any reason not to carry this knife the thing is except for being 1/2" longer it is exactly the same dimensions as a chapstick.
