- Appa Pocket Knife, All-Black, 2.75 Inch Reverse Tanto Blade | EDC with Assisted Opening, Reversible Pocketclip, Everyday Carry for Men and Women

The Kershaw Appa is a great everyday carry knife. It’s lightweight, sharp out of the box, and the all black finish gives it a clean, sleek look. The blade opens smoothly, feels comfortable in hand, and the overall build quality is excellent. It offers great ergonomics, durability, and outstanding value for the money. Highly recommended.

This has become my favorite knife, and is the one I carry in my pocket always. I have a bunch of knives, looking for the perfect one all the time. A very good size for the pocket, being smaller, but it does all the jobs I use it for. And I reach for my knife a lot... Probably at least 10 or 12 times a day at least. It's sharpens extremely well, to a razor's edge if I want, and holds his edge well through my abuse. It opens and closes extremely easily. And it is inexpensive!

First thing i noticed was how small it is. Which is not necessarily a drawback. You barely even notice it's there. Blade is nice and sharp. The knife definitely punches above its weight. Very tough build as well. Open and close very smoothly once you get a feel for. I have large hands and it's a small knife but you get used to it. Unbeatable for the price. Kershaw quality and durability. Great looking handle. Sharp blade.

Overall, a decent little folding knife. Pros: The assisted opening action is crisp and reliable. The black coating works well with this design, and the pocket clip is sturdy and doesn't dig into my hand. The blade is sharp, and the grinds are even. The design (blade shape, useful jimping, grind angle, etc) of the blade makes this a very efficient cutter, and there is an area on the top of the blade that you can use to rest your thumb. It's an inexpensive knife that is capable of doing basic EDC tasks (opening mail, cutting boxes, peeling fruit, general fishing stuff, and defending the Free World from the Lizard People. It's also not heavy, and it rides well in my pockets. The pocket clip can be attached to the other side of the knife for left handed folk, but only in the "tip up" configuration for both left and right hand carry. The knife blade locks up tight when deployed with no horizontal or vertical blade play. Out of the box, the knife easily shaves hair from my arm. Cons: It's a smaller knife, so there's not much real estate to hold on to, and the wee flipper tab digs into my pointer finger when I grip the handle tight. The liner catches the blade back directly in the middle of the contact area (a little late in the lockup), but this doesn't affect the performance of the knife. Again, it's a decent little Chinese made flipper with 8Cr13 steel, that is capable of performing basic light end EDC tasks. I purchased this for less than $17, and I can recommend it for what it is.

I highly recommend this knife for anyone looking for a small, portable, and effective tool for everyday carry (EDC). Pros: Perfect Size: The knife is compact and fits comfortably in my hand, making it ideal for those with smaller hands. It's small enough to carry around without being bulky. You can open and close with one hand. Incredibly Sharp: The blade is extremely sharp right out of the box, if you get the bundle with the knife sharpener it sharpens very well. Lightweight & Easy to Control: The knife is very lightweight, which makes it easy to handle and you don’t notice it in your pocket. Convenient Clip: The pocket clip is a great feature. It stays low-profile, so it doesn't stick out far enough to be noticeable, even when sitting down. Great Value: If you purchase the bundle with the knife sharpener for around $20-$25, it’s an excellent deal. Cons: Not for Larger Hands: If you have larger hands or need a bigger knife for heavy-duty tasks, this may not be the right choice for you. Overall, having used many knives in this price range, this one stands out for its balance of sharpness, portability, and value. It's a solid choice for EDC and well worth the price.

Very nice authentic Kershaw. The handle appears to maybe be nylon fiber but is very stable. The liner lock is very effective and releases easily. The blade is pretty sharp out of the box and only needed a little stropping. The blade is tight and the action is very smooth to deploy and detract. A great buy on the Prime Day sale. It is very pocketable and has a good pocket clip to boot.

Great little knife. Easy to use one hand opening. Sharp out of the box. Hopefully the edge holds up. Seems durable. Nice looking with a good finish. Feels good in the hand and should serve well as a utility/working knife. The handle feels good and clip is reversible for righty or lefty. Kershaw makes good knives without breaking the bank. Decent knife for a deal on prime day sales.

This is a nice small pocket knife. Super great quality (of course it’s a kershaw) It flips right open and is super sharp. One handed flip and close. Killer pice for a quality Kershaw knife , I love it so much. I’m female with smaller hands and it’s perfect for me….but if you are a guy who just needs it for cutting fishing line oh man it would be a great tackle box knife. It goes in my back pocket and the clip is tight so I don’t loose it . Iv lost so many knives…in fact if I could find it right now I’d upload a video . But hey this one is cheap enough if I for real lost it I’d totally buy another.
