| I have always carried a pocket knife and found many uses for them over the years. The Ken Onion Scallion 1620 is a fantastic knife - reliable, sharp, and holds an edge quite well. It is legal since the blade is less than 3 inches in length. I worked for many years for a large urban agency in the midwest and often found police carrying them. They said they were very reliable and I never talked to an officer who stated he had any desire to replace it. The knife is light in weight, can be opened quickly with one hand, and is easy to close when finished. I have given them also to my adult children and quite few friends who continue to state they are the best small, lightweight pocket knife they have ever used. |

| All the reviews on here encouraged me to buy this knife along with seeing a knife like it that my friend had. The knife I recieved, although, turned out to be a lot nicer than I expected. I have had many knives and this one, by far, surpasses any and all of them. It keeps an edge great and is extremely sharp. I highly recomend purchase of this knife. |

| I have been a fan of Kershaw knives for several years. The quality and design are outstanding. I have several Kershaw models in my collection that are still in the box. But, the scallion is by far the best knife I have for every day use. It is the perfect length, and the speed safe opening with the liner lock make this knife easy to use. I highly recommend it. |
Great craftsmanship

| The Scallion is small enough to be pocket legal most everywhere, fit nicely in even a small handbag for women, or ride in a fanny pack. It can be easily opened even by people without hand strength or dexterity and it is razor sharp. I nicked a chunk off a knuckle playing with it the first night, and developed an appreciation for its craftsmanship real quick. It is sharp as a sushi knife. I guess what sold me on this model over the others is the textured handle, and I am glad I did. If this baby slipped you wouldn't want to try and grab it. It is also rock solid when locked open, not a hair of play in it. Closest thing to a fixed blade I have seen in a folder. |
a very good knife

| I bought one of these knives about a year ago and am very impressed by it . It came out of the box sharp enough to shave a big patch of hair off my arm and has held a very sharp edge with little maintenance (about once a month I run a fine stone down the edges about 8 to 10 time). The only drawback I've found is the safety can be a pain to release. I tried leaving it off and the blade did pop open in my pocket. But overall this is the best pocket knife I've owned in 12 years and would highly recomend it. |
