Kershaw Overdrive

Neat little knife, really an interesting design. Quite a clever mechanism with the "disappearing flipper". But it is too small to be really useful. Great little novelty knife but I just find a 3" knife w/ a 2" blade a mite small to be of much use.Read full review

Hand Stabber!

This knife is reasonably well made and works as advertised and looks nice. I chose the smaller, less intimidating OD-2 (vs OD-1). It may be a coincidence of my hand size and the way I open the knife. But, you should be aware that, to operate the lever, you must exert a lot of force in the direction of the blade's point in the closed position. This end of the smaller OD-2 typically rests against and sometimes pushes into the fleshy pad at the base of my (and probably your) thumb. Occasionally, while opening, the blade stops after moving only about 1/2". After getting stabbed with the point, I became very cautious. But, the point still stops 1/4" from the closed position about 1 time in 10.

I don't have an OD-1. But, I suspect the longer knife would be held differently and avoid the whole issue.

Just right small EDC

One drop of oil on the pivot and it flips open easily. The blade holds an edge well and the one handed opening is a big help. I use it for all kinds of simple cutting tasks, Opening food packages, opening Am@zon boxes and the like. It makes me nuts when my wife opens boxes with a key or pair of scissors. Since it is discontinued, I bought a couple of extras. At one time ebay auctions of these were selling for about $50. I said "pass" to that, but, for $20, I say "buy" Oh, yes, I took off the pocket clip. It fits in my pocket much better without it.Read full review

Discontinued?!?!?!

It's a real shame this knife is discontinued. I've had more than one of these and find them to be an excellent every-day-carry. I like that it can easily, quickly and safely be opened with one hand. You'd be surprised at how many times it comes in handy to be able to open the knife with one hand. It comes razor sharp and holds an edge. It's light and small enough to be easily carried in a pocket but has plenty of blade to do most utility cutting and trimming. I bought two this time.Read full review

Kershaw od2

A very cool knife because of the lever opening mechanism. Also great small size. It’s a collectible, now since this knife is discontinued. Keep the blade oiled, as bead blasted 8cr13mov steel tends to rust.Read full review

Ok knife

This is a nice knife but is very small I have bought similar knifes of better quality for the same price it's not the blades size that is a issue it's the handle and it is marketed as a good knife to open with one hand mabey for a child but not a grown adult and I have small hands glove size medium if that helpsRead full review

Too Small

When it's in your pocket it's like it's not even there. Basically it's not. It's so small that it really requires 2 hands to operate. It's sharp as a scalpel, which is nice, but you need doll hands to operate this thing one-handed without nicking yourself. Too late to get the bigger one for under $100.Read full review
