Generally, there is no real need for anything more than a Swiss Army Knife, or a very basic tool like an Opinel or Douk-Douk pocketknife. But there is a certain pleasure in handling a well crafted tool, whether that tool is a hammer, a socket wrench, a lathe, or a knife. This knife is a pleasure to handle.The lines are a little odd at first glance, apparently gratuitous styling, but this is not the case. The handle is solid and well contured, allowing for a firm grip and positive control of the blade. The blade has an excellent geometry for any use a pocketknife is appropriate for. It is especially well suited for food preparation, but works well for cutting line or opening boxes, et cetera. Fit and finish are superb, maintaining the high standards of Al Mar, even if departing from their usual lines.As much as I like this knife, the handle is just a little too thick for my tastes, maybe a millimeter or so. But this is the only criticism I can make.And the usual caveats regarding cutlery... If you get cut, have a little integrity, and admit that you were a bone-head and ignored a safety rule, and children and stupid adults should not handle things they could hurt themselves with.The Al Mar Nomad is a little pricey, but is an exceptionly well made tool. Even with the bulk of the handle, I like this pocket knife.E. M. Van Court

Buy this folding knife, only if you love knives, collect knives, and don't mind burning over $100 bucks on a large EDC knife. There are so many cheaper alternatives out there from Spyderco,Kershaw, and ColdSteel to name a few, that will fill that role in your pocket, but the Nomad you will fall in love with, trust me, I have family, friends, and co-workers that all carry a plethora of knives, and they all envy my Nomad. 1st, Blade is exactly three inches in beautiful VG-10 stainless steel, no mistake this is expensive steel, but mainly look at the shape of the blade, perfect EDC (every day carry) great for cutting, slicing foods, and even piercing boxes, the blade is not intimidating at all, so you can feel free to pull it out anywhere, knife people will admire the blade instantly, non-knifers will not think twice, very cool. 2nd After 2 months of daily use, I can now say the blade has not needed resharpening, no signs of rust either, and with proper oiling and lubrication the pivot opens super fast, the lock up is tight and has not needed re-tightening either, and I flip open my knife all day just out of habit so it stands up. the handle is nice but not super ergonomic, more style than function, but don't worry it handles fine and you get good jimmping up the spine. In short if this knife was a car think of it as a Porsche, and a gift that only you can give to yourself.

Razor sharp out of the box, well small and light. The ergonomics are good and the texture grip is very good. This isn't going to be up to any heavy duty cutting tasks. It is a perfect gentleman's pocket knife and ideally suited for most daily cutting tasks. The clip permits only tip-down carry inside of a pocket so that is not my preferred arrangement. It is not reversible. All in all a very nice package.
