5 out of 5 Archetypal pocket knife!
dlewis78731 (verified owner) –
The #15 is the sum total of what a pocket knife should be. It is small enough to carry easily, and its 2.75″ blade will serve for just about any ordinary task.
Fit and finish is typical GEC: nearly perfect!
I must confess that I do not prefer the steel liners and bolsters, but I suspect that it contributes to making this one of the most affordable GEC knives, and if cared for, should not be a problem.
The pull strikes a great optimum between stiff and weak, and produces a satisfying walk and talk.
Its a great size that stays within the category of “tool” and not “weapon”, which helps avoid a certain sort of awkwardness these days.
