Columbia River Liong Mah Folder

Lovely knife to own even if only for the aesthetics alone (I do not know enough or understand enough to comment on the quality of the steel, but the edge was shaving sharp on arrival).

The only minor concern I have is regarding the locking mechanism, while I do not have vast experience with slip joints it is a little slack. Having said that, the finger choil should protect anyone using the knife correctly, it's certainly not a stabbing implement.

Fantastic service from Heinnie Haynes and I look forward to carrying this knife.

A flipper or stud would be a nice addition to this joy to own blade, but other than that, for a UK legal carry it's an absolute gem which screams quality. 10/10 for Heinnie service, as usual.

This knife is great looking, I really like the elegant design. It feels very comfortable in the hand, and the polished G10 scales look and feel great. Obviously they offer less grip polished, but with the intended use of the knife, and the grippy finger choils, this doesn't concern me. The polished scales means that it slips effortlessly into a pocket, while the clip keeps it secure. The blade is a great size and shape, and came razor sharp. One thing to note is that I cannot comfortably open this knife with one hand; it's a bit of a shame that it wasn't designed with a stud. That said, I love it - it looks and feels superb. Top service from Heinnie as always.

This knife is beautiful. Very well constructed too. However, my main concern is the fact that the slipjoint (it's not even a traditional slipjoint) is terrible. The blade easily closes during use. Luckily the decent size finger choil prevents a full close. Would have given this 4 stars. But mine has some mill scuffage on it. The finish isn't excellent. Not sure what others are like. However, this makes a nice casual EDC blade if you're doing light tasks.

As always an excellent customer service from these chaps. Ordered yesterday and received today - outstanding. Love the knife, at last getting decent quality UK legal knives at a decent price. Lanyard was a bit pants so put my own on. Have posted a video of the knife and new lanyard on You tube. Thanks Heinnie Haynes.

This is a great looking knife and when you pick it up you can just feel the quality. It feels really solid in your hand but it's not too heavy. In the short time that I have owned this knife I have used it for cutting branches in the garden to slicing a chunk of cheese, it has cut everything that I have thrown at it with ease. The choil is just right and I would imagine that you would have to try really hard to close it on your fingers. All in all I would recommend this knife to anyone who is looking for a good, nice quality EDC.

This is my first UK legal carry pocket knife (all my others are locking). It is a great little knife. As someone else said there really could do with more traction on the handle and some more jimping around the thumb and forefinger area but it is a pocket folder and you will not be using it for extreme uses. I think the price point is about right as it is good construction and very sharp out of the box. Other good points are light weight, deep carry pocket clip and wide blade for good cutting area.
Highly recommend for a UK EDC.

Ordered this over the Easter weekend, and have pocketed it since. This is a really nice little knife, feels good in the hand and the blade is good and sharp out of the box with a decent heft to it. The G10 and satin hardware looks posher than it costs, which makes this a really smart looking "gentlemans folder".
The ball detents are positive and the pivot is easily adjustable so you can make it looser or stiffer to open / close.
The nail nick is interesting, not quite OHO but it can be done. I've ground down the second finger ridge which doesn't really make OHO easier, but it does make the knife a little more comfortable (warrantee? What warrantee?).
I was thinking of paying double for a nice looking gents knife, and while I'll probably still buy the Enzo I was lusting after, this will be a good place sitter in my EDC rotation.

If you've not got one get it ordered. It's the best legal EDC knife I've ever had. I've been looking for a knife like this for years. I'm a lefty and it's perfect.

This knife is a quality piece of kit, shaving sharp straight out of the box, an absolute dream UK EDC.

First of all, I've had the Spyderco UKPK, and as great as it is, it's not perfect for me. This knife sorts the issues I had perfectly.

The scales are smooth, which is better than G10 for me as it glides from the pocket when clipped in. It is very secure in the open position but without the loud 'clack' which can fool some into thinking there is a lock.

There are too many nice discreet little touches to mention here. It fits well in the hand and is truly razor sharp, popping hairs easily. A nice weight and screams quality!

This is a great knife, sharp out the box and a fantastic quality feel to it. It's wider than I thought from the picture but if anything that's a plus. So many UK legal knives feel flimsy. Not this one!

HH service outstanding as always! I don't think I've ever had as good an online shopping experience as I get from you guys! Keep up the good work!

First, the downsides; the G10 scales have no texture/grip whatsoever so it's a little slick in hand. Also, rather than a thumb stud or hole, you have this kind of slot. It is functional, but not the easiest to operate, so no speedy deployments. You can decide if that's a plus or a minus yourself. Lastly, there's the lockup. There is no back spring, just pressure on 2 ball detents. It does the job but it doesn't take much force to close the blade. Thankfully the generous finger choil stops it from closing on you so it's not a big deal.

The knife is very comfortable in hand and I love the blade shape. It is big enough for day to day tasks but you won't scare the sheeple when you break it out. It feels much more substantial than my Spyderco UKPK and although the blade is slightly smaller it doesn't feel as delicate. As I said though, the UKPK wins hands down on the lockup strength which gives a little more confidence.

All in all, a great addition to my UK legal EDC rotation.
