Cyber Monday is here, and as you comb the internet for this year's best gifts, don’t forget about your own everyday carry setup. Amazon has had notable deals on all kinds of daily carry items to start the holiday shopping season, but pocket knives from Gerber, Kershaw, and even Leatherman have been among the best. Today, though, the biggest deal comes on a classic model from Smith & Wesson, and it's nearly half off.
The Smith & Wesson M&P Drop Point Folding Knife is on sale for only $20 during Amazon's Cyber Monday sale, a 45% discount on its normal price of $36. This folding blade is a popular choice on Amazon—it’s the No. 4 bestselling tactical knife on the site and over 1,000 have been purchased in the last month alone. And, if you peep the reviews, you’ll quickly understand why: Shoppers say it’s “very well constructed,” “very sharp,” and is “the perfect size for everyday carry.”
This Smith & Wesson M&P knife features a 3.5-inch, smooth-edge, drop-point blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV steel with a black oxide coating for increased durability. It folds smoothly in and out of the handle using the thumb knob on the blade, and a liner lock keeps it firmly in place when in use. The handle is made from aluminum for low weight and strong durability, and its black and tan color scheme looks downright handsome. It also features a semicircular hollow to protect your index finger as you cut through items, and a lanyard hole and clip allow you to keep the knife securely attached to a pocket or bag when not in use. When folded up, the whole package measures 8.2 inches long and weighs just 4.9 ounces, making it a great pick for camping or other scenarios where portability is key.
Amazon reviewers have heaped praise on this stout Smith & Wesson blade. “It goes with me everywhere I go,” said one. “It looks and feels great.” Another shopper loved its “quality craftsmanship” and said, “Nice and sharp right out of the package. Such a great knife…Stays sharp and is easy to sharpen.”
