Quality knife but isn't useful with just one hand
This is a very lightweight knife that can be swung open with your hand, but the caveat here is that you REALLY need to push down on it for it to open all the way. I've found that the majority of the time when trying to open it with one hand, it doesn't spring open all the way to lock in place and I need to use my other hand to lock it in place. Overall it's a quality knife, but I can't give it 5 stars since it doesn't open all the way easily.

Handy and high quality
This pocket knife has come in quite handy. It gets used most frequently for opening packages as they are delivered, opening water softener bags or feed bags around the farm, or opening product packaging. It handles those tasks with ease. I appreciate the non-slip textured grip on the handle. As well as, the clip to keep it from slipping down to the bottom of my pocket. It opens well with one hand as it is supposed to. It feels high quality. I haven't had any issues with it so far.

Great knife
I have a vast collection of knives and this one has become one of my favorites. Out of the box the blade is very sharp. Been using it as my EDC for a few weeks and I've had no issues cutting rope, tape, boxes, and other assorted materials. The body is compact and comfortable to hold, while also being of average weight, coming in at ~3.5oz. The nub to flip open the blade sticks out a tiny bit, but I have not found it to be an issue. There is a detent built into the locking mechanism which prevents accidental deployments, which is a nice feature to have. Blade deployment is very smooth and easy to master with one hand. My only con is that there appears to be a section just ahead of the nub where a chunk of metal apparently broke off - must have been during manufacturing as there's no way for this to have happened during normal use. All in all a fairly good knife to have in your collection!

My NEW EDC
The TRUE Fast Flip is a great choice. It's a reliable everyday carry knife that prioritizes speed and secure handling. The knife offers a good balance of durability and edge retention for the price point, while the finish adds a sleek, low-profile look. This knife delivers excellent performance and features for its size. If you need a fast, secure, and comfortable folder for your pocket, the TRUE Fast Flip is a fantastic daily companion.

Nice all around folding flip knife
This everyday carry knife (EDC) made by True is a high quality product in both materials and workmanship. From its one-handed deployment featuring their trademarked Fast Flip design which uses a ball-bearing pivot system and liner lock to the three inch drop point blade; this is a great pocket knife. It fits comfortably in your hand with its ergonomic textured grip it even has a pocket clip for carrying or storage. Overall, I’m pleased with this product and would recommend.

In my opinion this ( TRUE ) brand knife is great. The EDC fast flip knife has a 3” cut length & 4.35” when closed length while open it’s a 8” length. I love the textured grip with pocket clip as well. It comes in a black oxide finish & 1-hand deployment, with a handy lanyard hole which is handy all & all it’s a great knife. Has many uses I would recommend.

One Hand Easy Open Pocket Knife
This knife is definitely my go-to tool for fishing, camping, or any side jobs where I need a quick blade. The EDC flipper folding knife features an easy one-handed opening mechanism with a liner lock, so you can open and close it without needing both hands. Another great feature is its size; at just 3 inches, this knife easily fits into your pants pocket, tool bag, or the center console of your vehicle—essentially anywhere you need to store it. The drop point blade and ball bearings enhance its user-friendliness. Now, let's talk about the blade's sharpness and strength. Its G10 handle and 8Cr13MoV stainless steel make it easy to cut through various materials. Additionally, the knife has an appealing black oxide finish that gives it a sharp look. You can easily tuck it in your pocket, or use the lanyard hole and pocket clip. Personally, I prefer the pocket clip, as I attach it to the side pouch of my tool bag for easy access.

My new favorite EDC item
I have also been a huge fan of the multi-tool, but after carrying this EDC 3 in. Drop-Point Ball-Bearing Flipper Folding Knife I realized that about 85% of the time I pulled out my multi-tool it was to use the knife, which required two hands to deploy. This Fast Flip knife with its one-handed deployment mechanism has changed everything for me. Carrying this knife over the past couple has shown me that it is an EDC essential. This knife is the perfect size and weight for either belt or pocket carrying. The textured body provides a excellent grip and ball-bearing flipper makes it quick and easy to deploy the blade with one hand. The position of the liner-lock makes one-handed closing of the blade easy while securely locking the blade in the open position. I will say this is all from a righted-handed perspective and did seem a little more difficult to one-hand close using my left hand. The blade seems sturdy and has held a nice edge over the past couple of weeks with a good amount of use cutting open boxes and packages and various straps and ropes. Aside from the belt clip, the body of the knife also features a lanyard hole. This knife is most definitely now part of my EDC items.

Great Knife!!!
Really impressed with this EDC knife. The flip to open is smooth as silk. Opens faster than my current EDC knife. Handle is some type of polymer with an excellent grip on the surface. Gives a very confident grip. Feels great in the hand. The handle on one side is shaped to easily reach the liner lock. Very easy to use. No side to side movement of the blade when open. I like the placement of the pocket clip on the blade end of the handle. Feels more natural and easy to use than when it is placed on the opposite end.
