Not bright on this occasion Spyderco. Review: I bought this a while ago in the hopes that I could teach proper knife handling to my daughter. Turns out this was great. Not only was it fun to build for the both of us, it was quite educational as both my daughter and I learned the internal mechanism of a lock back folder. The glo in the dark aspect makes her want to play with it and I can monitor and correct her if she doesn't handle it correctly. ## Features - This Spyderco Items is a great Folding Blade Knife - This Spyderco Item is the model Plastic Knife Kit NEW - This Spyderco item is Glow-In-The-Dark - Model number: PLKIT1 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00LGL26UY | | Age range | Kid | | Batteries included? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 364,015 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) 162 in Knives (Sports & Outdoors) | | Blade edge | Chisel | | Blade material | Plastic | | Brand | Spyderco | | Color | dark | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (203) | | Date First Available | 2 July 2014 | | Features | Glow-In-The-Dark | | Hand orientation | Ambidextrous | | Height | 2 inches | | Included components | Spyderco Delica 4 Plastic Knife Kit | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Item display length | 1 inches | | Item display width | 2 inches | | Item model number | PLKIT1 | | Manufacturer | Spyderco | | Number of pieces | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 15.24 x 2.54 x 2.54 cm; 68.04 g | | Shape | folding | | Size | 2 7/8" | | Style | Modern | | Weight | 227 g | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Kid - **Blade material:** Plastic - **Brand:** Spyderco - **Colour:** dark - **Handle material:** Plastic - **Included components:** Spyderco Delica 4 Plastic Knife Kit - **Model name:** PLKIT1 - **Recommended uses for product:** Bushcrafting, Camping, Carving, Fishing, Hiking, Hunting, Peeling, Skinning, Whittling - **Special feature:** Glow-In-The-Dark - **Style:** Modern ## Images ![This Items is a great Folding Blade Knife - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51770rAfe+L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What would be proper age group for this plastic kit?** A: That's a complicated question... Some people make choices to grant their kids responsibility earlier and others later. We've always been in the 'early' camp - expecting our kids to rise to the occasion, and being willing to take things away if they show themselves incapable of being responsible. Maturity and carefulness aren't always tied to an age. There are teenagers who I wouldn't expect to make safe choices with a plastic knife, while I think my 5-year-old can.So, that said... This is a plastic knife with an exceedingly dull edge but a rather pointy tip. The plastic, while durable, wouldn't stand up to much abuse. I would suspect that _I_ wouldn't give this to a child younger than 4, but your mileage may vary. **Q: Can the scales be swapped onto a real delica?** A: No. They are far too thick. **Q: Is this the glow in the dark model?** A: It is. After a 15 minute charge, it will glow for 6+ hours. **Q: Does it have a belt clip?** A: It does not have a belt clip. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Not clever. *by M***H on 19 December 2014* I like spyderco kit too, but how on earth can this be a wise bit of kit?? Great for ones hand luggage and passing through security!!!!! Not bright on this occasion Spyderco. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***R on 20 October 2016* I bought this a while ago in the hopes that I could teach proper knife handling to my daughter. Turns out this was great. Not only was it fun to build for the both of us, it was quite educational as both my daughter and I learned the internal mechanism of a lock back folder. The glo in the dark aspect makes her want to play with it and I can monitor and correct her if she doesn't handle it correctly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by I***Y on 15 January 2015* I bought this to show my little guy how a knife works and to use it for a way to teach him knife safety. He absolutely loves it. The kit is easy to assemble and stays together nicely. Here's a tip for assembly: use a little piece of 320 grit sandpaper to smooth down the places where this is removed from the tree. This will keep you from scratching yourself after it is together. You could paint this knife, but I left it as is. The knife is glow in the dark, which is kind of fun. As for teaching my little guy about knives, it is working well. He was trying to "cut" something and ended up closing it on his fingers. (Dont ask how, I wasn't there.) This gave me a chance to talk about knife safety and explain how the lock back works. I think he was able to understand, since he saw it put together as well as fail. Highly recommended. This is a fun and safe way to teach children about knives. ## Frequently Bought Together - Spyderco Delica 4 Plastic Knife Kit - Glow-in-the-Dark and Easy Customization - PLKIT1 - Spyderco - Wooden C28 Dragonfly Knife Kit with Step-by-Step Instructions - For Ages 7 and Up - WDKIT1 - CRKT Nathan's Knife Kit: Wooden Pocket Knife, Drop Point Blade Design with Working Lock Back, Craft Project, Great for Kids 1032, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/99536988-this-items-is-a-great-folding-blade-knife](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/99536988-this-items-is-a-great-folding-blade-knife) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
