Great size for edc. Weight is light enough not to weight pocket down. Action is crisp with no failures so far. Tacknives has been great to me with quality of products and speed of shipping. Bought few knives with 1 issue which wasn’t their fault and still they took care of quickly above expectation
James Aguilera –
pretty sharp and reliable little knife well worth it would recommend

Unbelievable quality at this price point! Or any price point for that matter! I purchased this model specifically because it has a unique design that is unlike any other OTF on the market. The size is absolutely perfect for EDC and the action is oh sooo satisfying. I took mine apart immediately to clean it out and smooth out the ramp sections to achieve extra smoothness (I do this to all of my OTFs). While inside I inspected the machine work and was surprised at the quality and precision I found inside. I’ve taken a lot of OTFs apart to rework them and this stands out as much more quality than is reflected in the price I paid. Most of the time I have to spend some time with diamond files to achieve a perfect action but this one required ZERO work out of the box. The product description says that more effort is put into these TK Pro knives, and I believe it. I’d put the internals up against a name brand any day of the week. I like it so much I’m going to be purchasing a few more for friends.

Love it! The lockup is as tight or tighter than any other otf I’ve tried, the blade is flawless and razor sharp, the button is low profile yet grippy, it’s very light but feels solid and well made, no flaws at all. Tacknives has responded promptly to all my emails and their shipping was very prompt as well, legit company selling a legit product. Sounds like I’m promoting but not affiliated in in any way, saw them on a YouTube channel decided to order and it’s every bit as good as I had hoped. Weight is 1.54 0z.

I little thicker than other small OTF knives, but it makes it easier to hold. Very smooth operation and sharp blade.
Stephen Miller –
We made, very little blade movement when deployed. Solid in every way.
Jonathan Hendrix –
Excellent action super tight lock up. Couldn’t ask for better customer service or a better otf knife. I sized it to my Saks for comparison. It’s really built very well and will probably remove glass breaker. I don’t really break into cars through the window prefer using my keys.
Kevin J. –
Great little knife. Quick in and out. Came sharp and is a great knife for pocket carry.
Roderick –
The otf action on this is great, perfect size, this is my EDC now
john baglin –
Very nice compact Knife, extremely hard to open, though. Don’t know if this is for safety reasons. I expect it to loosen up with use. Came very nearly sharp, a few strokes with a diamond hone. Flat ground D-2 blade has a nice bevel and good edge geometry. Extended height pocket clip is a nice feature.
Kevin J. –
Strong spring and a sharp blade. Great for a small OTF. Gift for father-in-law, replacing his edc with a great knife.

Great knife. Came in a nice case for storage. The knife came with a razor edge. Very sharp as I shaved the hair from my arm. Would put up against any of the benchmark knives. Very happy with this purchase
Anthony M. –
Excellent quality knife. Very little play and super smooth action. Good quality blade steel and a useable shape for utility use. Small and very compact. Not a good choice however for someone with large hands.
David –
Perfect size for pocket and very well built.
Ethan P. –
Very nice knife for the price! Nice and tight, comfortable and perfect for EDC!
alex b. –
I have to say this little otf has quality on par with the top otf manufacturers. I own a utx70 and I like the TK pro stinger better. It’s easier to deploy and the fit and finish is on point. I am definitely gonna get me another. If you don’t feel like spending $300+ on a otf then check out Tacknives.
Jody Hastings –
Very nice product, great presentation as well.
Eric Hanlin –
Would be 5 star but the blade is not sharp at all. Great size. Great weight. Can’t stop playing with it.
Mitchell Teeters –
Well made and worth the money. I ordered a scratch and dent I don’t need based on this one. Fit and finish are extremely nice and sharp out of the box. The vault is a nice touch. Now I have a nice watch travel case!! I’m uploading some pics to show use after a week. This bugger is sharp!!
Joseph V. –
Great little knife
William Ross –
I have this knife in my pocket right now. Will be in my constant rotation of EDCs. Light and razor sharp. Forget that it’s there until I need it.
Alex –
I really appreciate Tac Knifes, I carry them everyday, take turns between several I own, Do not hesitate to buy one.
Mack B. –
I think I have found my OTF! This thing feels super solid and the action is almost too fidget friendly. I can’t leave this knife alone. The size is also perfect for EDC.
John E. –
Just got my package this afternoon, the knife is great. Quality, workmanship and the look. So far everything is fine. Very happy with my purchase. PS: your sales staff was very attentive, professional and above all courteous. In the future if I am in the market for another knife I will definitely buy it from your company. Thank you John E

This knife was purchased after my HK Hogue Micro Excursion arrived nearly impossible to open and was returned. This TK Pro has much more precise machining and the construction in general is way better than expected for a knife that cost $120 less than my HK. Have to say that this is an extremely well made knife at a bargain basement price. Hugely impressive!
Eric W. –
Couldn’t ask for more at this price point. Mechanism is legit. It’s snappy and firm. Safety mechanism has never disengaged the blade unnecessarily which some other OTFs can do. Incredibly light but doesn’t feel cheap. I’m hesitant to buy because of relatively low price, but I was wrong to be concerned. As long as the blade proves to be good, I’m very pleased and will be making more purchases soon.

Much nicer than I anticipated. Sharp. Very lightweight. Crisp action with no slop.
Garrison –
Very impressed with the knife. Solid action and sharp right out of the box. I will be getting more. Great value.
Jeff C. –
Perfect little knife. Takes a snug grip to operate.
Stephen Brown –
It’s a light weight knife. it’s a really nice knife to carry in your pocket you hardly know it’s there. I would definitely buy it again.
Brian S. –
I actually ordered two of these, one for me and one for a buddy. The reason for my purchase was for an EDC utility knife and this knife is fitting the purpose nicely. It is small enough to ride in the watch pocket of my jeans, which is a bonus. The D2 blade arrived with a nicely sharpened blade, good enough for shaving hair off my arm which means it is plenty sharp for the daily tasks for which I will be using it. I have yet to resharpen it, but assume it will resharpen as other D2 blades will. Mechanical function of the knife has been excellent, no problems. The switch action is heavy enough that I don’t foresee accidental deployment as being as issue, but still light enough to be readily used over and over again without thumb strain.

I liked it so much, I gave it to my daughter, and I had to order another one! Included is a photo with two knives that I just purchased for comparison. Well they have pretty much the same size blades as you can see the handle is significantly different. I’m going to use this knife as my gentleman’s knife and where it obviously, for dressier occasions. So far this is 5 knives I bought from TK so far.
TODD D. –
Great EDC! Good solid construction and operates very smooth! Very happy with my purchase and will be buying another.
Nicky62 –
Yes it is a mini. A tad smaller than I expected but the overall craftsmanship of this knife is awesome. The blade is hard and very, very sharp right out of the box! The feel of the knife in your hand screams quality, which is what I expected from Tacknives. This is my first blade from Tacknives, it most certainly won’t be my last!
Louis DiGregorio –
Great for EDC!
Timothy Ryan –
This little knife is a bad ass blade, you can feel the quality when you’re holding it, it has no blade play and came nice and sharp. I’m so happy with it I ordered the tanto version last night. A knife of this quality would cost you at least $100-$120.
Timothy Ryan –
If I could give it more than 5stars I sure would, the is one little awesome knife, high quality knife, very good action with no blade play, also came pretty damn sharp, I now have both the tanto and drop point and I wish they had a dagger in it. They are well worth the price even though they are a mini, TK did a really good job on these little knives. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Best Father’s Day gifts I could think of!

One of the best for its size! Best Father’s Day gift!

I can’t tell you how happy I am with my tac knives. Super strong and sharp and what a value. I’ve bought 5 knives now and recommend them to all my co workers.
Joseph K. –
I love this little thing! The build quality feels great and the action and sound are awesome! I love fidgeting with it, it is also very sharp too. The case it comes with is pretty good with pluck foam to fit different knives. Will be buying from TacKnives again!
Bryan –
Great going to town pocket knife. Easy carry

Mack B. –
I have bought at least 5 of these as gifts and I carry one daily myself.
David M. –
Great well designed pocket knife.
Is there any way to decrease the amount of pressure it takes to open and close the blade?
David.
Scott K. –
Again. The pro line is superb! Just order it. You won’t be disappointed! P.S. It’s the smallest auto I’ve ever seen, but I dig it.
Ricky –
Very nice knife! Smooth action vary satisfied!!
Travis –
Love it, great EDC knife
Mack B. –
Best value and action for the size.
Ethan –
Excellent OTF knife! Super smooth action and good ergonomic handle. Great quality for the price.

amazing action for the price. do not waste $200+, this is a better knife!

I like it! The blade lockup is miles better than my cobratec sidewinder and the raised pocket clip is a nice touch that I didn’t see until I got it. The action is smooth and snappy. My 2 gripes are that there’s no texture on the sides of the handle so grip isn’t great compared to my other mini TacKnife, and I want the button on the face of the handle as that’s where my thumb naturally goes as I pull it out of my pocket. Also I had to put some blue loctite on the clip screws as they loosened up. Still my favorite little knife though!

Again, smaller in size than I expected, but really nice for the price!
Dean C. –
Very nice mini otf hardly any play for an otf much nicer than the cheaper ones
Anonymous –
It feels very well crafted. The function alone is very convenient working in the service industry and is great for speed and safety. I added a tiny lanyard. My only complaint is sometimes the blade locks up in the handle and I have to tap it for it to come out. This has happened since it came out the box but it doesn’t inconvenience me. I dig it.
Dale F. –
Great little knife (USB jump drive for size reference). I always carry a knife but when I dress nice for a date with my wife, weddings, funerals, my EDC knives are to big but this little knife disappears in my pocket perfectly.
This knife feels great in my hands, feels like I’m holding a quality knife.
I’m very happy with my purchase.

1. Great edge retention, love that D2.
2. Ergonomic design, Very comfy & full in the hands like holding a chubby Bic Lighter or fat chapstick.
3. Absolutely makes awsome fidget.
But there’s definitely room for improvement such as adding jimping” around the area the fingers rest and some textured inlays would be great (but thats optional). Over all I ❤️ it an couldn’t recommend em more”
Mack B. –
Best OTF in this size I have found. Perfect Christmas gift for dad and friends.
Clinton B. –
This really checked all the boxes for what I wanted! Small with a high quality wharncliff blade. The action is amazing. Blade came razor sharp. It even came in the nicest case I’ve ever gotten with a knife. Shipping was super fast as well. This was my 1st TK but definitely won’t be my last! I will probably be purchasing the Stingers full size big brother very soon.
Thank you for making a quality and affordable OTF

We are a TAKCOM dealer and I can say with complete confidence that the pieces TAKCOM produces is top tier. The action is great, the materials are of high quality and they are priced right. My suggestion is you pick one up and compare it to any other knife in the market. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. (FYI, my personal fav is the Stubby!)

I love this knife! Excellent price, solid construction, snappy action. The Stinger is the perfect size to carry around in a small pocket – I carry it every day for utility purposes. The Wharncliffe blade is great for opening boxes and packages. I will definitely be buying from TAKCOM in the future; you will never find a better OTF knife for a lower price.

I’ve had my Stinger for 4 months now. The blade is still sharp and I haven’t had a single misfire. It still fires like it did on day one. It’s a great little knife.
Jordan Cowan (verified owner) –
Awesome action! Tight lockup and smooth. I love the look the size and the fidget factor. I will be back for more. Thanks!

Present for son’s girlfriend. She says it’s perfect for her hand, and purse. Really good option for the ladies.
Shawn (verified owner) –
I’m absolutely amazed with this little OTF! Comparing this to my other more expensive one’s, this one puts them to shame! It’s way more snappy in and out. Plus the heat treatment! This out cut my $260 m390 big brand OTF of the same size!!! Yea I’m serious, 154cm out cut m390🤔 I would buy this, DON’T WAIST YOUR $
Dylan W. (verified owner) –
Use as an everyday cutting tool. Never fails and will always be my go to utility knife!
Neal H. (verified owner) –
This is a nice and pleasantly small knife. It feels quite good in the hand. The mechanism is quite smooth, and the firm activation mean you aren’t concerned about accidentally setting it off. I do wish it was available without the glassbreaker, but that is personal preference.
