SENCUT Sachse Button Lock Pocket Knife, 3.47" 9Cr18MoV Blade S21007-3

This knife has become one of my absolute favorites - so much so that I purchased a second one. The blade shape, premium materials, and factory edge are all outstanding, delivering excellent performance right out of the box. Most notably, the action is exceptionally smooth and refined—arguably the most buttery deployment I've experienced in this price range. Every opening method feels highly satisfying and effortless. The thumb studs are ideally positioned, complemented by a perfectly tuned detent that makes thumb-flicking reliable and comfortable. The flipper tab operates with glass-like smoothness, while even the lightest pressure using the "push-button" or "light-switch" techniques instantly deploys the blade with crisp authority. Initially, I encountered slight "button-stick" when closing the knife, which prompted me to lightly polish the plunge lock area with a rotary tool in an attempt to improve it. However, after acquiring a second Sachse, I discovered all this effort this was entirely unnecessary. The action broke in beautifully within just a day or two of normal use on my second knife, completely eliminating the minor button resistance. The brown micarta scales, while attractive and grippy, do tend to show oil stains from hand contact over time. A light application of oil to the scales effectively mitigates this cosmetic characteristic, as is common with natural micarta finishes.

Excellent fit, finish and build quality. Smooth fidgety action with multiple deployment methods. Typical WE / Civivi micarta but it's decent. Centered blade. Slicy and easy to sharpen. Great budget buy

Had some pretty bad button stick at first but that was easily remedied. It wasn't very sharp out of the box, but again, easily remedied. My only real gripe the weak detente. I know it doesn't have a true detent, but so far it just doesn't have a snappy action. But for $45 for a relatively well done button lock with some pretty good micarta and 9cr18Mov is a pretty good deal. I would it again. Infact, I might purchase one or both of the other colorways for work/beater knives.

This is an excellent knife. Lightweight and sharp out the box. Priced beautifully, I love it.

This knife is awesome. The micarta is great and the blade is nasty sharp. If you’re thinking about getting one, do it. Right now.

Comfortable knife with a surprisingly large blade given the handle size. The edge bevel is steep but even, with a slight burr remaining; it could definitely benefit from re-profiling or at least sharpening. Out of the box the side to side blade play and centering was probably the worst I've seen. As others have mentioned, the button sticks but I expected that until it's broken in. First impression of fit and finish was not good and I was really questioning my purchase. I adjusted the pivot to eliminate the blade play but then the deployment was terrible due to the friction. Pulled it apart to see what they had done for lubrication at the factory and found it bone dry. The action is much improved by adding a drop of lube to the bearings and lock button. The button still sticks a bit but is definitely improving over time. I really like the design and expect this knife will improve as it breaks in but only time will tell. 2 WEEK UPDATE Lock stick continued to be severe so I had a closer look. The lock button engagement is rear of the cutout in the blade causing it to stick. Some time with a small file and polishing opened the cutout and completely eliminated the sticking. It appears that the micarta is dyed after the fact based on the color fading to white in spots. Not overly concerned as it will change color/stain with use anyhow. Re profiled to 800 grit at 20 degrees and found that it takes and holds a good edge. A little time on a diamond strop brings it back to shaving sharp quickly when dulled. If it wasn't for the fact that I really like the design and it holds a good edge, I would have simply returned it. It'll continue to be an occasional part of my EDC rotation but it's primary use will be in the woods so I don't lose one of my better knives.

The knife arrived quickly, was packaged well and is very impressive. It is well made, extremely sharp, comfortable in the hand and works flawlessly. If I ever need another knife, it will definitely be a Sencut.

Great budget knife for the price and the action is great. Only thing I can complain about is not USA made but you won’t find a USA for this price.

Me ha gustado el cabo y la forma de agarre. Apertura muy suave y desbloqueo con button lock a muy buen precio. El acero, no es un súper acero, pero es fácil de reafilar. Buena opción a un buen precio.
