Many people don't realize it because of how commonplace they are, but a good knife is a huge necessity in your day-to-day (even if you don't want to look like this). And if you fancy yourself a handyperson that spends a ton of time in the elements? Well, you'll need a reliable piece of gear.
It's not uncommon to see good foldable knives go for prices that border on the insane, but right now you can purchase this Wou Knife at a huge discount. Normally $105, it's on sale now for $64.99.
The Karambit Wou is a great option for cutting wires, wood, rubber, and more. The blade is constructed out of 5CR15MOV stainless steel, while the handle features a luxe blue titanium and gold finish. The Wou is also wear-resistant, withstanding damage from both abrasive and adhesive wear to ensure you can use it effectively for a long time. Plus, the knife's compact nature makes it perfect for portability; you can easily slip it into your pocket, purse, or backpack!
A reliable knife, like any other good tool, is a great asset when you need it. Knifeplanet really summed up the benefits of a good knife when they said, "Carrying a knife makes it easier to cut tape, cut string, cut trailing threads on clothing, open boxes, open clamshell packaging, cut/strip wires, prepare food like fruits and vegetables …" The list goes on.
Meanwhile, StatGear points out that a good knife is also a great option for the more mundane things in life, saying, "For a nice clean cut, a pocket knife is the perfect tool for seamlessly slicing through envelope seals and taped boxes."
Right now you can cut out the nonsense and capitalize on this great deal on the Wou Knife for just $64.99. That's marked down 38% from its MSRP of $104.
