The Olive Knives Lenta is a USA made, full-size folding knife that’s meant to last a lifetime. Now… I don’t recommend pounding your pocket knife into a pine fence post and then proceeding to hang a 90 pound dumbbell below the pivot screw *but* I do recommend you taking my word when I say it will probably survive that. it will also cut through a can of refried beans relatively easy, but don’t expect the edge to be curling hair and slicing paper after that (though it will still be reasonably sharp enough to cut some cardboard).
Honestly really impressed with the build quality and how sturdy it feels. The pivot takes a t30 screw is an absolute beast. You would have to try pretty hard to break this knife.
