SENCUT Serene

This is the perfect example of a quality knife that sells for much less than it should. As a big fan of WE and Civivi and I was excited to try out their newest sister company Sencut. And boy I am not disappointed I did! As usual with their brand of knives there is no blade play, the action is swift and enjoyable with ease of opening by both the thumb stud and the flipper tab. VERY SMOOTH! And with an achey thumb at times retracting the axis lock or frame lock on some knives just hurts after fidgeting with them over and over. So the button release is great for lots of fidget fun but with ease of retracting the blade. The detent is perfect and with the knife completely vertical as soon as I push the unlock button the blade drops smoothly all the way to the frame. No shaking or tilting l, just a nice controlled drop. I personally think button is quieter and smoother than my Claymore which when pressed feels a little grainy and has a little squeak to it. This is one hell of a knife for their budget blade cost. Will definitely purchase more Sencut knives.

Amazing build quality and action. Edge was flawless; stropped to razor sharp. Smartest $50 I've spent on a knife. D2 is perfect on this size knife... I know how to sharpen. OBTW, the milled TI clip fits the Praxis and this one (second pic). Both are excellent button-lock flippers; strong and reliable.

This blade pleasantly surprised me with how quietly it opens, making it an excellent fidget knife for office use. It's lightweight and perfectly suited for everyday carry (EDC). I'm thrilled with this purchase, as I've come to expect excellence from all Sencut blades. While I anticipated a nice knife, I didn't expect it to be this exceptional! It definitely outshines my other blades in the sub $50 price range. If you're in the market for just one knife, this would be an excellent choice. In fact, if I had to choose only one knife, this might be it! It's fidget-friendly, boasts a sharp blade, and the aluminum handles give it a premium feel. Plus, the button lock mechanism operates very smoothly, adding to its overall appeal. Amazing knife! I didn't want to spend this much on a blade, but I'm happy I did!

The knife is beautiful and has a razor sharp edge. I love the fact is has the perfect trifecta (flipper tab, thumb stuf, AND button lock)! The only slight issue I had is that the blade was slightly closer to the left handle scale than the right one (see pic). The blade should fall perfectly in the center of the 2 handles, yet mine seems to favor the lady handle to a noticeable degree. I had to disassemble the scales and wedge a folded playing card in the handle while retightening in order to recenter the blade. Now it’s perfect.

The value proposition of modern knives is almost unbelievable. The Serene exemplifies that statement. It's comfortable, very slicey with a good grind and fairly refined edge for a mass production piece. It's well built. D2 steel has outstanding edge retention, especially for this price range and I know this company tends to heat treat theor D2 well. Though it's a semi-stainless steel, the coating on the blade should mitigate corrosion concerns. I should note that I haven't cut more than cardboard so far, meaning I don't know how durable that coating is yet. I assume it's PVD. The blade has no wiggle and the lock stood up to light spine whacks. I can't imagine someone regretting this purchase, not because of the knife anyway; maybe because your wife finds out you bought another one. This could easily be a one and done knife buy and should last you years. Just know the finish on the aluminum will show wear like scratches, as will the finish on the blade.

There is always a Rick when geia button lock from not Civivi. I think Sencut might be owned by them? Anyways, this is a great button lock. Sturdy, light, smooth action, good detent, solid blade, Sharp as heck.

Sencut really knocked this one out of the park, the knife came razor sharp with the most perfect factory grind I've ever seen, it passed the paper slicing test and shaved arm hair right out of the box. after running the edge over a strop and paste it's sharp enough to shave whiskers! The balance of the knife is superb and very light weight, good for using and also for fidget fun. The action is incredibly smooth and will only get better with use and all opening methods have been effortless and 100 percent reliable.this came with the companies knife storage and stickers as well. If you're at all a fan of WE, KIZER, OR CIVIVI I really recommend SENCUT for budget friendly edc blades.

This is my first Sencut knife. I purchased it because I have always enjoyed my Civivi knives, and I know they are from the same OEM. This knife came extremely sharp from the factory. It performed the paper cut test with almost no resistance and absolutely a razor clean cut. The thumb stud is a good size, but not too big as to be distracting or in the way. The flipper tab on the back is also very modest but quite functional. My wife who has zero experience with flippers was able to work both methods of opening first try. The button lock depresses easily, but not so easily that I would worry about accidentally unlocking the blade while working. The action is buttery smooth, and the detent is very nice. The knife is exactly the same blue color as the depiction. The blade is perfectly centered, and has no play left to right or up and down. I am very impressed with this Sencut knife and will be purchasing more from this brand in the future.
