The **Ontario Shikra 8599** is a cool, light-weight EDC knife. Amazing for all daily tasks. Its price is also amazing: the Ontario Shikra has an amazing price-quality ratio. It will be hard to find more value for money anywhere else.

 The pointed blade has a nice, thin grind. As such the Shikra is amazing to use! You notice it when peeling an apple, for instance. The skins will fly off the apple! The blade is made from Japanese AUS8 steel. This is a stainless type of steel that is easy to sharpen razor-sharp.

 You quickly open the Ontario Knives Shikra with the flipper. You do so with one hand, to make sure you can always reach your knife. Even when you only have one hand free. When opened the blade is locked by a framelock. Titanium framelocks sometimes tend to move a bit stiffly for a long time. That is why Ontario enhanced the lockbar with a steel insert. Great because it means the lock will last even longer. Great!

 The presentation side of the handle is made from micarta. A light-weight composite material made from canvas and synthetic resin. Offers enough grip and is also strong. In addition, it feels great in hand. The lockside is made from titanium.

Wie üblich bei k&t schnell versandt (nachdem der Hersteller ab und zu mal Lieferzeiten hatte). 
Das Messer ist für die Größe wunderbar leicht und schreit geradezu danach, unauffälliger täglicher Begleiter zu werden (und zu bleiben). Ich mag auch den leicht „abgeschabten“ Look, wo die unvermeidlichen Gebrauchsspuren auch nicht weiter auffallen oder stören. 
Der Flipper verlangt etwas Kraft, öffnet aber dank kugelgelagerter Klinge zackig; der Linerlock arretiert zuverlässig – nur beim Lösen kratzt es etwas. Da kann man mit etwas Schleifpaste und Öl nachhelfen. 
Die Schnitthaltigkeit des verwendeten AUS-8-Stahls gehört jetzt nicht zur Top-Liga – dafür ist das Messerchen mit ein paar Strichen zwischendurch über den Riemen (oder alle paar Wochen den Wicked Edge) wieder einsatzbereit. 
Klasse auch die Möglichkeit, den Clip einfach umschrauben zu können, um es mit der Spitze nach unten in der Hosentasche mitzuführen. 
Apropos Spitze: die verschwindet im eingeklappten Zustand nicht allzu tief in den Griffschalen – da kann man schon mal einen Kratzer abbekommen. 
Alles in allem (für den Preis) ein gutes Messer für jeden Tag, das garantiert nicht in der Vitrine verstaubt, weil‘s zu teuer und zu schade zum Arbeiten ist …

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_blade_length_edge

The length of the cutting edge is measured from the tip to the start of the edge. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Cutting edge length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_closed_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
