Comments:
I have the all-stainless model of the Poliwog and I love it. One of my favorite knives, its size and look make it ideal for carry in an office or in public around non-knife afficianados.
It is a small, compact size. The blade is short but practical, and not dagger-like (meaning, it does not look like something that you would choose as a stabbing weapon).
The ball-bearing lock makes the opening very smooth. It has a very reassuring "click" and seems very strong, despite its delicate look. The closing action really requires 2 hands but this is no biggie to me.
The knife fits my hand very well. I have large hands and I had concern that this would be too small, but it works for me.
I also like that only a very small portion of the knife sticks out of my pocket when carrying. The clip is a wire clip and is also discreet.
I like this model alot and if I had to narrow my collection down to (only) 2 knives, this would be one that I would keep.
