==> It is up to you to look up other versions of the same product and find out it was removed from the market due to a design problem that has injured people in the past. I have included text from the official recall below that you can check with an online search. (Search: Gerber EAB Recall August 2007) Item received is as pictured but with "Piranha" brand logo instead of Gerber. Manufacturing quality and blades are all fine but this uses an old design with a single sheet of metal under the finger as a guard. This is a dangerous design. Even when tightly inserted, blade can slip to the side of this guard and rotate out, cutting finger badly, especially when cutting hard material with blade tip and applying any side-ways force with the finger on the guard. I complained to Banggood but since the product is "as pictured", they refused to issue a refund unless I spend more than the value of the product shipping it back. So I've taken pictures (attached) to show the defect so you know what to expect. In fairness, it is possible to modify and make it safe by welding a sheet over the guard, but the time spent doing that defeats the value of the "deal" here. ********** August 29, 2007 Release # 07-295 WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product.

Comodo poterlo agganciare, per non doverlo tenere in tasca. Ha un nome appropriato al filo della sua lama intercambiabile, per cui mai più un coltellino con la punta rotta. I suoi 61 grammi di peso ne garantiscono la resistenza. Unico punto debole è il taglio di invito per aprirlo con l'unghia che è troppo vicino al fulcro della leva per essere comodo da usare. Io preferisco aprirlo inserendo l'unghia dove termina il supporto per la lama.
