First Impressions
As I'm currently putting together a survival pack I thought a small handy Knife would be a great addition. As this particular Knife was handy and very cheap it seemed a little crazy to let it pass by.
Winning the auction for 99p seemed a bargain and if it turned out to be crap then it wouldn't be a disaster financially.
Whilst I waited for it to arrive I noticed that Ebay had pulled it from the listings?! I'm not sure the reason why? I had wondered if these Knives were illegal in some way but I don't think they are. The blade is under 3 inches long so it can't be to do with that? Who knows?
It arrived anyway, packaged in the usual padded envelope.
Inside was a credit card sized piece of plastic wrapped in a clear cellophane bag.
Stage 3: A fully functioning Knife!
The Knife is constructed from cheap thin plastic with a small thin steel blade fixed in the middle.
Transforming the flat credit card shaped plastic into the Knife is really easy.
Firstly the blade has to be unlocked from the plastic by means of a round disc which holds it down.
Then you simply flip the card over and fold the bigger flap over the smaller flap locking everything together.
It works surprisingly well and feels strong and secure in the hand.
A handy Security feature - The Blade Lock thing
Testing
The blade on this Knife is pretty damn sharp! It can cut through alsorts of things including cardboard, textiles, plastics and wood to a certain extent.
Paring fruit and peeling veg was also very easy to do with this Knife.
Definitely good enough to get you by in an emergency or survival situation. I'm really quite impressed with my 99p transformer-Knife.
Rating: ✅✅✅✅✅ 5 out of 5
An ingenious little Knife which costs virtually nothing.
Worth every penny in my opinion.
