In my recent EDC pocket dump, I mentioned that earlier this year I started carrying the Smith & Wesson SWFR2S Extreme Ops knife as my everyday pocket folder. I've had one for years which I keep in the glove compartment of my vehicle. I purchased a second one when I decided to use it as my EDC knife.
This relatively inexpensive knife (about $24 on Amazon as of Dec. 12, 2021) has proved itself more than adequate for the job as my EDC knife. Sharp right out-of-the-box, big enough to handle most tasks, and tough, I am very satisfied with this knife. I would (and actually have twice now) rate it 5 out of 5 stars on Amazon.
Here are the knife's specifics:
- 3.3 inch blade and 8 inch overall length
- Locking blade is high carbon black oxide stainless steel
- Tanto point blade and partially serrated
- Handle is coated and textured aluminum
- 4.4 ounces in weight
- Glass breaker on end of handle
- Seat belt / cordage cutter built into handle
- Pocket clip and ambidextrous thumb knobs
I have had absolutely no problem with either of the Smith & Wesson SWFR2S Extreme Ops knives that I own. I haven't had any cause to use the glass breaker or seat belt cutter yet, but the knife itself is excellent. It makes a great EDC knife in my opinion. Find it on Amazon at https://amzn.to/2ZvkIAC

why don't many knife makers state if the glass breaaker is carbide or whatever material? Buyers who say It is a good knife, but haven't tried the seat belt cutter or glass breaker I say, when the situation arrives isn't it too damn late to test it? Duh! I would rather a knife be a shitty knife but a fantastic seat belt cutter and glass breaker.
