Just thought I'd let you all know about a pretty good deal.

$5 at the local Wally world. It's nothing spectacular but that being said I think it beats the heck out of a cheap Gerber. I, like most of you, prefer to use a good quality knife, which is why I own ESEE fixed blades and Kershaw folders. But everyone needs a beater knife and IMO the Sheffield gets the job done and is cheap enough to stash a few wherever you might need one.

I have one in my duty bag at work and recently started carrying one in my pocket on duty instead of my Kershaw folder. It has a glass breaker and a cord/seatbelt cutter. It sliced through the shirt of someone in full arrest to get an AED hooked up no problem.

Long story short, if you're in need of a beater folder that has a glass breaker and seat belt cutter, I think it's better to get this for $5 instead of another cheap brand for more money.

Will post a picture of said knife a little later. Not sure what the model is called but it's a tanto blade (not my preference) but they had other options as well.

Can't find model number and threw out packaging. I'm going back to buy more this week at some point. Will keep you posted.

I'll make it hot eventually when I get to a computer. Phone is stupid.

Interested in pics or model number. Probably just going to pick up a couple for glove box use or stocking stuffers if they are decent.

I buy their $5 knives they put out for Christmas as gifts. The winchester ones arent bad either. At $5 you dont care if you lose it or break it.
