Pros & Cons
Pros
Small enough to carry in a side pocket of your cargo pants without weighing down your pants, if you didn't want to use the belt sheath. Comes with a beautiful case and great looking rose wood handles. The sheath fits right and the leather is stiff.
Cons
The sheath is decent but even sheath on new one is crooked and looks like garbage. Less than a month in the cheap steel the spring is made from snaps. Buy something else.
Highlights
Quality
I bought a new lb5 to replace a much older us made model and found the quality to be quite good
All the metal bolts and end caps are smooth and flush with the wood handle
Made in china quality is not the same as my old one but i have already gotten over it
As far as quality goes the wood grain on the knife i received is a very nice dark cherry finish with darker striations
Packaging/appearance
These knifes are nice for everyday carrie and is sharp right out of the box
Knife has good finish solid lock and is sharp right out of the box
Competitiveness
I had always liked the weight and feel in my hand of the schrade uncle henry lb5 so buying a new one was a nobrainer
This knife is just as a good as the buck 501 that i own at 13 the price
They were too expensive for such a small knive
At less than 30 dollars it isnt a buck knife which has a lifetime warranty made in usa
