Owned since 1980s

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

GREAT GIFT
Good product

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

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.
Great little knife

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.
Got to me quick

It was great
Bought in early 1980's

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

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.

a great knife - now even better

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.

Great long term tool

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.
Still an excellent knife!

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.
A must have

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
Backup knife for drysuit pocket
- 10/31/2023
Nice compact backup knife. Plenty sharp to cut heavy lines.
key chain, behind ID card, Altoids tin, laced on surf shorts, on zipper pull-NEVER without a blade

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.
Even Better
- 10/21/2018
This one is even better than the original that I have used for over 20 years. I has a great edge.
Bad ass gem
- 07/11/2018
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!
Just like back when.

Had one of these 30 years ago. Bought it for sentiment.
Great tool available again!
- 12/18/2017
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.

Great Keychain knife
Dependable and perfect

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.
Good quality and value
- 11/04/2013
Nice and small easily attached to a key ring. Very sharp blade. This would make nice stocking stuffers or gifts any time.
Great find

My husband had this knife confiscated at the airport and was just sick about it since it had been a groomsman gift. He was so pleased to find a replacement and just loves it.

Had one years ago. Nice little neck knife. This is as good as I remembered. If you are looking for a smaller than most knife of this type, this is it and at a great price.
Nice to have around
- 07/08/2013
I have had one of these keychain knives for more then 20 years. You can't imagine how many times you need a little knife, it's just so handy. When I saw these knives I had to buy some. They are great little gifts to have around the house for birthdays or just about anything. Everyone that gets them loves them.
