A.G. Russell FeatherLite One-Hand Knife - I find this the 1st neck carry worth a darn. Light, less politically incorrect than most and much easier to deploy than needing to dig thru pockets. In police work a knife becomes your most used tool. Harder to lose than pocket carry knife.

Bird and trout knife - Love this little knife! I like the idea of the sheath, but I like a leather sheath better. Do you folks know where I can purchase one? Rating: 10/10

CRKT Redemption - Just received it, lived it, and love it! Your catalog lists it as 4.25" closed. As I'm sure you've been told many times mine measures 5.125" closed. Thanks for the absolutely Terrific knife! Cheers to AG and CRKT. Rating: 10/10.

K87C-17S AG Russell One Hand Knife-Stag Handle - Beautiful knife, handy size. But…One Hand???? Yes, it can be done but much more difficult to do with one hand than a liner lock for example. Misleading name. [I wish it had] easier one-hand operation. 8/10

AGLB-C52BKX 3" AG Russell folder - I LOVE my little folder. It is the handiest little knife I've ever owned. My dad gave me my first folding knife when I was 5 and I have owned hundreds of folding knives and have even created my own out of used parts. My Dad was in the CCs when he was a young man and learned blacksmithing and always made knives. This little knife is so handy and anyone I show it to wants to know if they can buy one. It is perfectly made and good looking with a blade that can be sharpened and stay sharp for a good long while. I would love to be able to get some more of these knives to give as gifts.

A.G. Russell Power Ball C32 Folder - Fantastic knife, D2 is one of my preferred steels, love the wood handle. Really like the ball bearing opening. The clip needs to be heavier duty, it easily bends when I just take it out of my pocket. You need to upgrade the clip. I have to rebend it regularly.

Changes: Upgrade the clip

A.G. Russell FeatherLite One-Hand Knife - This 3" folder combined with the neck sheath makes for the most common sense neck knife on the planet. When worn, it's half the length (4 1/2") of a 3" fixed blade and weighs less than most. Disappears under a t shirt. The sheath is secure but still easy in/out. Blade shape is perfect for everyday use. Wearing sweats with no pockets around the house, I no longer have to stop and 'go get' a knife; I sling this when I wake up and wear it all day long. One handed easy open/close. The Aus 8A blade came sharp and is fine for an EDC. This knife has done for me what Ruger did with my guns...I'm not a brand snob anymore. What works, works. Changes: The plastic thumb stud works well, but a metal one would up perceived value overall. Rating: 10/10

A.G. Russell Premium Scout Knife - The knife is attractive and well-made – but nearly useless. The spring is so strong that I broke two thumbnails trying to open it. I did get the main blade open, so I can use it with the blade remaining open. But I needed pliers to get to the secondary tools out – and then only after the main blade was open. So there is a safety issue.

Changes: Reduce the spring tension substantially. Do this and the knife will be a good product. Rating: 1/10
Fox Cutlery Core - I Recently purchased this knife and was extremely pleased. The knife is very well made and worth the price. Sadly, I lost the knife today when it came out of my pocket. I just wanted to recommend the knife highly. Unfortunately I can't afford another at this time. AG Russell is an outstanding company to do business with. I most likely purchase again in the future as I've already purchased several times in the past. Rating: 10/10

A.G. Russell 4" Sunfish Lockback Ivory Delrin or Black G-10 - Can't say enough good things about these two knives. Sturdy built, quality is very evident, attention to every detail, sharp right out of the box, & exactly everything I have came to expect from AG Russell knives. Wish you would offer the larger versions of these again so I could enjoy them and add to my collection. No one selling theirs on Ebay. Rating: 10/10

A.G. Russell FeatherLite One-Hand Knife - Very pleased with my new Featherlight One Hand Knife. I needed a lightweight, general-purpose folder that would stay sharp. I am especially pleased with the safety features of this knife. You will not hurt your fingers when closing the knife. The knife must be held in a way that keeps your fingers away from the blade while your thumb works the lock to close the knife. Works like a charm. Genius design.

I recently found at my mom's house, after searching for two decades, a K87C I purchased from AG Russell around the year 2000. The blade is a mild sheeps foot with the combination edge. I wish I could recall how much I paid, but figure it was $125 or so. I carried and used the knife daily, until it was lost when I moved out several years later. Shortly before I found it, I noticed in the catalog the few originals for sale, and thought even at $375 this knife is a bargain. I hesistated, being that every dollar counts these days, and was lucky enough to be re-united with one of my absolute favorite knives; which now is at home daily in my pocket again. -Brad W

I had been searching for a Ka-Bar Forged Wrench knife for quite some time. It was unavailable on the Ka-Bar sight so I conducted a Web search for the knife. It pulled up A G Russell. I had never heard of the company, but I have have them a chance. I’m glad I have the company a chance, because they delivered above and beyond. I will definitely be using them in the future. Thanks for great service. Rating: 10/10

A.G. Russell FeatherLite One-Hand Knife K93-CTVG10 - I’ve been a long-time fan of A.G. Russell and have purchased nearly all my knives from you for more than 25 years. About 18 years ago, I purchased a FeatherLite One-Hand knife from you and loved it. The unique design and light weight made it a perfect gentleman’s pocket knife for light duty. I still have that knife and include it in the rotation of pocket knives that I use daily. Recently, I purchased another One-Hand knife. This time, I treated myself to the K93-CTVG10 because I love the way that steel can take and keep a razor’s edge. Upon receiving that knife, I was very disappointed: I found it very difficult to open with one hand. My original On-Hand knife, by comparison, opens smoothly and reliably. I don’t pretend to understand the challenges knife maker’s face today, but I’m disappointed that for the first time in my experience, A. G. Russell failed to deliver a user-friendly product. Oh, I’ll keep the knife you sent me…I’m not interested in suffering through the time and energy to box and mail a returned item, without any certainty that replacement would adequately address the issue. My real problem is not knowing how to avoid a problem such as this with any future purchases. Thank you. Rating: 3/10
