Mechanically, the metal parts are flawless – the blade opens and closes easily and is quite well sharpened. The handle material is ordinary plastic, not nylon like in the V-x. I find the presence of an extra lock on a one-handed knife annoying, as it seems unnecessary. Choosing between a Mikov and a Sentinel comes down to personal preference.
A practical and straightforward pocket knife featuring a drop-point blade crafted from stainless steel AISI 420, with a hardness of 53-55 HRC. The blade boasts a smooth edge and flat grind, offering excellent cutting abilities and ease of maintenance.
Accessed via the nail notch, the Liner Lock system, appreciated for its intuitive function, guarantees a secure blade lock.
The handle scales consist of sturdy PVC, a material resistant to mechanical damage and temperature effects. A metal O-ring located at the handle's end allows for attachment of a lanyard, keys, or key ring.

The metal elements in the knife worked properly—the opening and closing mechanism functioned well, and the blade was fairly well sharpened. Unfortunately, one of the scales popped off one of the pins. It seems that quality may vary depending on the particular specimen. It’s worth considering for yourself whether to choose Mikov or Sentinel.

Easy to use, inexpensive, and well-made pocket knife with a safety lock, which is a big advantage. A great choice for people who are just starting their adventure with knives.
