Mikov SAK-alike with fork

Anybody have experience with the Mikov 100-NH-3V?

I'm thinking of getting me one. It's only E 13.

Tell us if it's possible to eat spaghetti with it. If so I may have to get one from Santa.

I'm not into spaghetti, I prefer macaroni and eat it with a spoon. You're on your own, buddy!

I will be interested in reading your thoughts on the Mikov 100-NH-3V once you have it in hand.
I could have used it yesterday, I had to eat salad with a spoon. :facepalm:

It's a pretty knife... but I'd want a can opener on my "food" knife.

Im curious what the quality is like.

I'm not a regular can opener user; many cans overhere have pull tabs.

This one's gonna be my "apple waiter". My standard apple knife is a Pioneer Solo, but it doesn't open bottles of apple wine or cider. So if this is a decent knife it'll replace the Solo.

Nice find. I reckon my 111mm cheese knife would work well with a hobo upgrade like that  :cheers:

Hi Ronald

Great find of a different type of SAK  :like:

It looks cool and just having the option to use a fork on a multi tool could be useful, instead of using a spork or something else when eating on the go.

I will be excited to see your review and pictures of the actual knife.  :cheers:
Best regards

Sadly there is no emoticon for eating popcorn with a fork, or I would be using it.

Postal service data:

Dimensions: 28 x 19,5 x 5,5 cm

Seems like a large package for a 9cm, 71g knife.

Hello, I have some experience with the company. It's Czech company. I have 3 knifes from them, two of them are carbon steel and one stainless steel. And I must say that the stainless steel is dull so you will need to sharpen the blade. But if you would like to I can search for some more information on web. (sorry for my english, I'm still learning :P) Also they usualy write that it has pvc shealth but nope, it doesn't it's usually just plastic bag.

Don't worry, if it needs sharpening then I will do so. I have/had a few other Mikov knives and I like them.

I'm glad to hear that. They are pretty cheap where I live, and I didn't hear really nice things about the company. But I thing it wasn't because of multifunction knifes. But I like the knifes they make ( except ghey could be sharp right out of a box)

I'm a bit confused by the whole idea of a knife factory that speSmurfpillses in making blunt knives...
They're making world domination a bit too easy for the Swiss!

Let's just say that they aren't sharp enough ( at least for me). You have to sharpen them yourself. I don't think that they are completly dull, you can cut something with it, but you definitly cut paper. They just don't meet my standarts. I need sharper knifes :climber:

At last! It's here!

First impression: looks like a SAK (almost), feels like a SAK (almost).

The sharpness was not impressive. I needed half a minute on the DC4 to corrrect this..

Springiness is good.

I'll have photographs in a few minutes.
