Product Details

handle failure? Probably should have squeezed handle together while reinforcing top of knife with index finger to avoid this issue. The two holes on the tang make it a back up arrowhead, spearhead, lance...or just wrap the handle in 1.8mm paracord or bees waxed natural twine.

Have had your Xtra edge on my keyring for over 30 years. Probably closer to 35. I have worked in a warehouse my whole life & my little friend has had lots of abuse over my 31 years managing Logistics for a large computer manufacturer in Houston. Likely a trainload of boxes opened over the years with it. Blade's still in good shape despite being resharpened numerous times throughout the years. Thanks for making a quality product.

Nice compact backup knife. Plenty sharp to cut heavy lines.

I have had two of these for probably 30+ years and have used them so many times. I'd thought they stopped making them long ago. Recently I lost mine (my fault, not its) and was very happy to find that not only did Tekna company still exist and make these, but that they'd fixed the one issue they used to have, that the steel was a bit soft and didn't hold an edge that well. I immediately got a new one and it's back on my keychain, and now getting another for my son. Highly recommended!
just a note to add to myreview:
I don't use the included carabiner but use a 3/4 inch diameter split ring to connect my tekna xtra edge to my keyring. That has worked well for me for years and is a bit less bulky on my keyring.

Had this knife for years and beat it up pretty bad and I was thrilled to find it again,it's a bit cheaper made now but I carry it every day and so far it works well, just have to make sure it clicks into the sheath but so far so good

The "new" version of the Extra Edge by Tekna is even better than the original. I’ve owned several of the 80’s versions over the years yet as they aged the blade could slip lose from the sheath. I kept those old ones in a drawer since I was concerned about losing the blades. Now Tekna has redesigned the Extra Edge with new material and a stiffer connection of the blade to the sheath. I plan to order several more to keep and give away as gifts to friends and family. They are incredibly practical and can hang on a keychain nicely or a lanyard. I also like that they make a screwdriver tip and there are so many more colors available too.

I have had one of these for 20+ years. Unfortunately it came off my keychain and I lost it.Just got a new one. Fantastic!!!

Bought mine 1982-83 I think. I love it dearly and the best description I have for it is "indestructible".

I have owned this wonderful keychain knife since the mid 1980s. I have used it on my keyring since high school and pretty much carried it every day since I got it. I highly recommend this knife.

GREAT GIFT

Awesome small knife, it required some sharpening, but it is overall very compact and handy.

I open the package and realize it?s made in USA and I feel pride and marvel how it can be $15 and I go to pull the sheath off and the blade comes right out of the handle with it. Disappointed. I can probably smear some JB Weld in the slit where the blade goes and fix it. Otherwise, the quality of the metal and the sheath and handle are nice. I saw this on wealljuggleknives channel and he said his needed a slight reprofile, but mine seems decent. Except the blade falling out thing. I could return it, but I think I will fix it myself.

Very easy to use, sharp. It replaced an earlier version I'd had for over 15 years. Old one still works kept both.

This is a sharp functional keychain knife, no fear of it coming out of the sheath in your pocket it seems to be secured well in the sheath.

I am using this knife to cut gold leaf sheets out of the book. Recommend running the blade over a piece of glass a few times before first use. This helps takes the sharp edge down just a hair making it better for this purpose. This was taught to me by my art instructor 😉 Make sure you keep the cap handy for storage.

It was great

So cute and really sharp

I had this same knife about 30 yrs ago and its always been great. Will be getting another one soon

I have had my first Tekna key ring knife since the early eighties. I still carry it in my front left pocket. Recently I looked to see if they were still made and to my surprise there are! And, they have improved it. So, I bought two. One for me and one for my friend's son.I will retire the old one and break in the new one. I use it nearly every day for all kinds of tasks.

This one is even better than the original that I have used for over 20 years. I has a great edge.

This is the best keychain. It doesn't look like a knife and it's so well hidden. Super accessible and sharp, sharp, sharp. Being a single female out there, this is the perfect hidden gem for safety. It's compact and sits with your keys. No bulky pepper spray. No need to carry your pistol. No digging for ANYTHING. Just pop it off the key chain and BOOOOM!!! My dad tries to steal it all the time. Now I can give him his own. He can use this awesome little razor sharp slicer for just about anything. Gotta get this bad boy!

Had one of these 30 years ago. Bought it for sentiment.

This is the perfect key chain tool. It's no longer than a key, and it's exactly the right length to open a box without slicing the contents. Extremely happy that it's once again available (after years, decades?). It appears to be as high quality as the original.

I love this knife

Feel "Safe" walking to ur car w/this sharp keychain !!!

Great Keychain knife

Very handy knife, easy to carry, and has held up for a long time. It's small enough that it fits in the little watch pocket on my jeans. The cover for the blade is very secure, and has never come off.It's pretty small, and I mainly use it to open packages, cut cord, etc. I don't know if I'd want to peel an apple or anything else very precise due to the small handle, though.One warning: the hole where the clip attaches cracked on mine early on. I had it on a keyring at the time, but not any more;,it still works as a pocket knife, but I can't really use it on my keyring any more.

I found this knife almost 15 years ago in the street. It was a bit scratched up, but I kept it. I have it on my keyring, so it's always close at hand. After 15 years, it still looks almost new, still keeps an edge (better than some of my expensive knives), and it's not much bigger than a lot of modern car keys. Also, no rust, even though I live in a rainforest.

Nice and small easily attached to a key ring. Very sharp blade. This would make nice stocking stuffers or gifts any time.
