Cracking little EDC folder- no joke!

Posted by Stevo on 11th Mar 2025

First Joker I’ve ever had. Nice and light for EDC. Blade length is well under 3 inches, at 2.75 inches (7cm). The blade is thin, flat ground, and the fine thin edge offers some belly, with a slight outward curvature. This translates into an excellent slicer. If Opinel ever decided to make a traditional slip joint design, it might just be something like this. The back spring tension is just barely on the lighter side, on mine. About 4 on a scale of 10, at a guess. This is not a bad thing, though. It means that the little Joker can be opened and closed with one hand and some practice. The broad stubby blade can be held in a pinch grip while the free fingers push off on the handle. A useful technique that can be learned for either hand. Good for when you only have one hand free. And the spring tension is perfectly adequate for worry free operation. 420 stainless is a good choice for general use. Easy to sharpen and good corrosion resistance. I was out in the rain for a while recently, and the Joker got rather damp as my clothes got soaked. However, once I was back indoors, warm and dry again, when I checked, there was no rust on the little pocket knife. It has not seen a lot of use yet, being new, but it cuts up cardboard easily, is perfectly suitable for food prep in the kitchen, and quickly becomes very sharp with stropping. All in all, this is a good quality single blade pocket knife. The very reasonable price, durable materials, tidy construction, minimal weight, and UK friendly features all combine to make this model an excellent choice.

Good UK legal carry

I bought this knife mainly for EDC in the UK. I have tried the cheap imperial sod buster knife which is nice enough but the steel wont hold an edge for long. The joker has 420 which I have lots of experience with, the steel strikes a fair balance between edge retention and ease of sharpening, no fancy diamond sharpeners required. The blade is easy to open and can be closed with one hand since the backspring is similar in strenght to a victorinox. The handle material is rough and grippy. If I had one criticism it would be that you cannot adjust the blade tension since it is just riveted together. Overall a cheap lightweight knife with good steel.
