Summary: As good as the reviews with one glitch
Comment: I looked at alot of knives before purchasing this one mainly based on the reviews from other buyers..I wanted one built to last and user friendly..I use a cutter daily for my job and I need a good one...I've always had a straight razor knife and I wanted a folding one...This knife is as good as the reviews stated..This is very nicely built and looks like a million bucks..The heft and feel of this is very nice..My only concern on this was the hinge part that locks the blade in place...This looks more like an after thought to me..It takes just a little bit to figure how to work it..It's not on par with the quality of the rest of the knife as it's a pretty thin piece of metal..If you change blades quite a bit like I do, I'm afraid this part won't last as it just has a raised dimple that matches a notch and once this dimple gets a little wear it won't hold in it's place and the knife then becomes worthless as the blade won't lock in place..The blade itself fits with no wobble at all..Perfect fit!!.. All in all, this is a pretty damn good looking knife and feels like it should in your hand..

Summary: Well Made, but, There's Another You May Prefer
Comment: I have this knife and like it very much for all the reasons most others have already posted. However, I also have the "Bessey DBKPH Quick-Change Folding Utility Knife - PVC Handle with 5 Blade Storage Compartment" knife and prefer that knife even more.
Granted, the DBKPH knife does not have the more durable and nicer looking woodgrain. But,it does have a rubber thumb-rest that the woodgrain version does not. Plus, the 5 blade compartment is convenient when you need to change a blade out.
You won't go wrong with either. However, if I had to buy another, it would be the DBKPH model.

Summary: Handy and Handsome: A Bessey Wood Grain Handle Folding Utility Knife Review
Comment: We bought a new house, and the packing was well under way when I came across the Bessey D-BKWH folding utility knife. I have inexpensive utility knives for the occasional drywall repair job and assorted odd jobs. However a folding knife seemed more useful on moving day and the following days spent unpacking.
Like typical utility knives, this one uses a standard angled tip blade. Unlike the typical knife, the Bessey folds like a quality switchblade including a safety to prevent accidental closing. Weighing 6.2 ounces, it has a nice weight and is shaped for comfortable use. A clip on the side permits storing the utility knife on your belt or is small enough to fit in a jean's pocket.
Most standard utility knifes require disassembling the handle to get the blade and reassembling back to a usable state. This is not a difficult task, but is much easier on the Bessey D-BKWH folding utility knife. Simply open the blade, flip the security latch on the top, and slide the blade cover down. With full access, flip or replace the blade, then reverse the previous steps holding the blade cover in place with your thumb.
As for moving, this folding utility knife was an excellent choice for me. With everything going on and my inability to stay in one place, keeping track of the knife was easy. I would use it, then store at my side. Even though we are pretty much unpacked now, I still use my Bessey instead of my other utility knives. This is an excellent quality utility knife worth purchasing.
PROS:
Quality construction
Handsome appearance
Simple blade changing
CONS:
No storage for extra blades

Summary: Very Good Quality
Comment: Made in china but the quality is excellent. Has the most sturdy blade holder of any of the lock blade utility knives; but the lever kind of gets in the way a little. The only others that are reccoemended are the Kobalt brand at lowes stores. They have a quick release that you just pull down on and the blade comes straight out, but it has a little woble ( I mean very little) on the blade where the Bessey has none. So either way you are good. Bessey is unique in that it has real wood inlay for a more traditional look where the Kobalt went more modern all aluminum in the six dollar model and all stainless and rubber inserts in the fifteen dollar model. The good part in these type knives is when your blade gets dull no more sharpening so it requires less maintainance. Get the Irwin blades made of spring steel that bend and dont break. Last twice as long and are twice as sharp. Dont fall for the titanium coating of blades and drill bits. Means nothing other than they look great why you are wondering what the heck is wrong with the way they arent cutting or drilling.
