At my Walmart they were in a cardboard display in the aisle outside of sporting goods. Not in the glass display.
I work at Walmart and we’ve had supply chain issues for the past 2 years because of the pandemic and then the ol blockage in the canal. Still receiving stuff we should’ve had months ago.
1. These are easy to slide out the package to test.
2. You can return any that don't work for another.
Thanks Jeff for this video. I saw another YTer who got 2 of these. One was a dud that he took apart. The T9 torx screw stripped out and the only way to get it back together was to use a weird triangle tip driver. So just be aware, the hardware on these seems to be really cheap too. So when you do your dissection vid, there's a chance it won't go back together. Happy thanksgiving to you and Christina!!
Funny how an Ozark Trail knife can sweep the knife community!
It's not.
It’s definitely not. Go on any of the reputable knife groups and pages. You won’t see this trash anywhere….
I almost bought one about 5 times now.
Well it may be getting some attention they will find the steel is so bad. I mean it’s so bad on every clone I’ve ever checked out or cheap cheap knife. I don’t even think it’s heat treated at all, lol. That’s what really matters unless you’re just going to fidget with it or were curious it’s no big loss for $6 . Now someone spending 60+ on a clone or they borrowed design on DHgate you’re not going to get good steel on the blade. Maybe with SMKE or green thorn but I would say the rest of them have been shit I just hate to see anyone make the same mistakes
I agree. Ozark Trail knives are great for the price. But I’ve tried a lot of their models and there are many I’ve returned or later traded for a very low price. I got lucky with this model. Mine is fantastic for $6!!! Thanks for the videos!
Great review! Thanks
Having worked at Walmart, they literally take all returns and you bought a defective return and they were too lazy to treat it as such. I agree with the QA issue.
Thanx for the info !! ⛄
I got one, it's pretty decent. I ended up acid etching and stone washing the blade which came out pretty good. I want to 3d print some scales for it to fully customize it. Decent knife for the price.
I guess that’s why it was returned or didn’t pass a pre purchase QC. I got a cheap Sheffield combo edge liner lock from Home Depot $12 true beater knife. Used it for prepping wild hog, cutting wire, prying oysters, chipping ice.
Sitting next to this $6 piece of rubbish, ANYTHING is a "high end" knife, lolol!
(EDIT) My local WM finally got these in stock!!... I picked up 3. One for my work toolbox, another for EDC, and a third for spare parts. All 3 are well made, no issues wirh mine. I went to the 3 walmart stores in my area, farthest is 35 minutes away. None of my stores carry any of the 2022 knives, including this one. I'm kind of bummed... but then after watching this I am kind of relieved too. There are 2 more stores about 30~40 minutes away. If I am in the area I will stop by, but at ~$5.50 a gallon I'm not going to make a special trip over there. The real bummer is that these are not available on line either. They seem to be an in-store only thing. But then again after watching this video, this is probably a blessing in disguise. Yours is the second video I have seen where someone bought two and one was a keeper and the other a dud. IIRC blade play was the biggest problem with his dud. So thanks again Jeff, looking forward to your dissection video. Have a happy thanksgiving and holiday season.
As a knife junky I was skeptical but iremembered my first ganzo and it was actual really good for the$20(depending on your morals on a company like ganzo and there knife models that copy others almost exactly but atleast out their label on it and aren't trying to oass it iff asthe real deal) so after buying 3 and getting the 1 great one I'd tell everyone to go out and grab a few because if your new to knives and always hear about the"ohh so amazing"Benchmade axis lock. This is a great way to get a taste even though no matter how much your adjust the best possible example they put out it doesn't compare to the real deal but hey EVERYONE starts somewhere so no shame. Thanks man you made a new sub out of me keep the sweet videos coming. Thanks
Happy Holidays to you and your family Jeff....
Not a huge fan of Ozark trail knives but last year I was in Walmart after Christmas & the guy at the sporting goods counter was marking down all the Ozark trail knives in Christmas packages to $1 a piece. I asked him why he was marking them down he said just because they are in Christmas packages. Even though I'm not a fan I couldn't resist for a buck a piece.
Thanks for the up date. I'll be sure to save my receipts. It's a shame that happened.
FYI, I had to go to a larger store to find this particular knife. Checked two others in my area and they didn't have it. Mine was a little rough out of the package when I opened the blade but the more I use it, the smoother it gets. No blade play on mine either. Like I said in a precious comment, you can't get a better deal for six bucks. Happy Thanksgiving
They just appeared at our local WM a few days ago, on a huge display. I think they have labor shortages like everyone else.
I bought one of these a couple weeks ago . I got bored today and took it apart cleaned the rough edges and polished it . I have more time into it then it worth but it was fun
I was lucky to find a store that had a full display of these, I resisted the temptation to buy them all for gifts, but did grab three…they all needed a good break-in, but all have a decent action and are well worth the $6, IMO.
There is something fun about cheap knives, I own some higher end knives but I have a clauss garden knife that I bought for $4 that accompanies me alot.
I picked one of these up recently and it had a crack on the blade edge that initially looked like burring. Returned and got another one, no defects.
Had the same problem. I like the scales and the axis lock. When I tried to remove the scales, a screw on each side was frozen. Ruined a screwdriver and then stripped the screw heads.
Could probably fix it inside, now it's in the trash.
I don't often buy Ozark Trails knives for this exact reason. OT knives are very unpredictable in quality control. They are always made with cheap materials, but sometimes they are absolute garbage, and other times they are decent for a cheap knife.
The new one either has a spring tension issue, or the pivot is too tight.
Jersey Knife Guy sent me one, it tuned up very fast(loosened and oiled pivot and axis locking bar) so i went there and bought 5 of them. My wife has already taken the one Pete sent me... Under $6 is crazy for these.. Good thing is Wal Mart should take the one that isn't locking up well back. Now i'm curious to see how well the other ones i picked up operate.
Found em at my local neighborhood market but I live in the land of Walmart (northwest Arkansas) and mines surprisingly smooth and was shaving sharp out of the package
Tell me your knife cost $6,without telling me your knife cost $6 😂😂
It's sorta odd Jeff, I never noticed that cutout design around lanyard hole and since you mentioned it.
I've seen a bunch or high-end knifes with that same strange idea , I don't like how it looks particularly either especially if it was couple hundred dollars!
Master Knife Guru .
Take it apart and inspect it.
Clean it , oil it and return with the video of the process . And if it needs a buffing or a tiny grind some where show us that to .
Think it would be great content
Besides it's only a $6 knife
Most people carry low budget folders that are sold a Gas stations or Walmart and Flea Markets and pay ten or less dollars for them. 🤔
I saw several of them at one of my local walmarts and I bought one and I must say that I love it...I got one of the good ones I guess, gonna go back and see if they have some more of them and if so maybe I'll pick up a couple more., since they seem to be kind of a hot commodity right now
“This one no snappy….Why?”😂😂
Just bought one that has that forward lock but so far it feels good. When I say just got it as in I'm still in the parking lot of Walmart lol! I live in NC and we don't have these knives yet but I just left Maine after having Thanksgiving with my kids and camping out while the rain is hammering Massachusetts. Went into Walmart for dinner looked around and found it! Happy with getting I'm thinking a functioning lemon 🤣! Always love your videos! Keep up the great work on them and thank you sir
They were at my Walmart in NY I picked one up and I love it.
Got one the night before last at the Acworth, Georgia Wal-Mart. Its tight but it locks up as tight as any of my Benchmades.
I have a couple Ozark fixed blade beaters. Two of them can hold a 5 min. edge, the other, is pretty much a pointy screw driver! They have their purpose.
Good video too btw!!!
😆 @ "pointy screw driver"
$6 beater that's easy to resharpen with axis lock, can't beat it.
I really wished they'd have dropped with different colors. Course now it'll give rise to moding videos. As for the sticking. I took mine apart touched it up with a little frog lube. Work it in and then it will work out. Smooth as it could be for a $7.00 knife.
I got two of them. I can't open them until Christmas morning. I like the look of them. I hope I got good ones.
Heres to hoping the one im getting for christmas isnt totally shot 😂 i couldnt manage to get it out of the package in the store without ruining the packaging so fingers crossed
might just ask to check if the lock looks like the good one or the bad one not that that'll be a 100% way least its within the return window
I have one of the Ozark trail, multiforce, multi tools and honestly I love the thing!!! the file sort of sucks but everything else is great
Whats crazy is I've been carrying an Ozark trail knife for close to 8 months now and I also have all sorts of higher end knives like an ultratech, benchmade griptillian, the mini grip but I was walking my dog beside the road one day and found this knife pressed down in the dirt and I picked it up thinking I could just maybe use the screws and hardware as extras but I figured I'd try carrying the little thing because it actually really was quite ergonomic and comfortable to use and very very light weight also with a pretty thin slicy little blade and I will be buying more of these just to have them because the one I have has been an absolute TANK of a knife to be a cheap $10 Walmart Ozark trail knife, I found the website if any of you all want to check it out, it doesn't have an Axis lock or anything, just a thin liner lock but the scales are recessed and the blade is actually quite good, it's very easy to sharpen and will hold an edge way way longer than I expected, the blade steel is said to be infused somehow with titanium (don't know how they do that) but if you get it broken in and put some good lube on the pivot I swear it is one of my favorite knives, the only issue I have is it's tip down carry only but I'm going to modify it myself to make it tip up carry because they are so cheap it's not really a big deal to start drilling and tapping holes into the scales and steel liners lol, but check this thing out, if they are all made as good as mine is I guarantee you it's value is WAY WAY over $10 or $15 bucks (don't know how much shipping is) but here is the link.

I got two of them. My boy opened his and it’s solid. I’m waiting to open mine cause I want to do a video with it.
Ya your right. Alot of videos on this knife! Like you said not bad at all for 6 bucks .. if you get a good one!
Hey just subbed… like the content!
I would take it back, I bought 2 and I got lucky, but still a little stiff even after using pivot oil on them. Gonna try some more
I have 3, and none of them have this defect, but I do inspect them before buying. It's easy to return defective tools so that's what I would recommend.
Inspect them how? You take them out of the package?
@@reasonrevived he showed in the video how to take it out without destroying the package.
@@charlessalmond7076 yeah but kinda scummy to do that idk
@@reasonrevived how so? Your not damaging or destroying anything. If you had to damage something to check id agree with you, but your not. I'm a carpenter by trade. I work for a general contractor. We buy stuff at home depot regularly. I open Everything from that store. I'd say about one in every six or seven boxs is missing pieces or is damaged. Life is short, time is valuable, I try not to waste mine to often. (I am online right now so I am currently wasting time)
Only two left when I went on black Friday I picked one up it’s cheap, sweet, and it cuts I like it.
For some reason the Wal;-Marts near me stopped carrying their folding knives. The one that does carry some only carry two models. They were replaced with those stupid disposable razor knife folders.
I picked up the last 2 at my local store. Both are to tight to flip open with my tumb. They won't begin to drop when unlocked.
I actually found this knife from accidently clicking your video. I ended up getting 3 1st one- straight"dud" 2ndok but even after loosening picot screwand lube was gritty and 3rd was meh but after tweeking a few things and lube its literally better action then my bug out hahaha. Given the blade steel is soft but as a whole I'd pay 15 bucks for this knife all day especially for a person's 1st axis lock this is a great freaking deal!!
this is just beautiful
The hit or miss of mass production. Thats why I bought two.
I bought 4 of them today, there are no duds. All are good knives.
I got my wife a “cheap” knife from walmart probably around 8 years ago still her edc today and still a great knife
This is a special Christmas item and therefore in the Christmas display in the aisle not on the shelves.
I just found one in the clearance shelf… nice looking but blade wiggles
Guess I'll pick one up if I seen any at my store
Not sure if your situation is similar, but i bought one with very tight action. I pulled it apart to see if i could correct it and noticed that the shaft of the pivot pin is actually slightly bent on mine. Not very much but enough that i had to punch it out of the blade and now cannot get it back through the blade. I attribute that to my shitty action and will try to buy another next trip to walmart.
I got two with bad actions. Saw a Camillius axis lock for $20 at Tractor Supply Co but I did not pick it up.
Hey Jeff fear not, you've got a gritty access lock. Take a gun oil and spray a bunch in the lock the work it back and forth. The grit is keeping the lock from pushing all the way up. Now don't get me wrong this is a turd of a knife but mine did the same as yours. Love ya buddy been watching since 2010.
Quote by Benjamin Franklin: “There never was a good knife made of bad steel.”
That’s why it got left behind. Wouldn’t be surprised if the person that cleared them out tried them.
Yeah , they not at every Walmar,t at least not yet in my local area Walmart but one of the three had the Cold Steel Bunch Craft set Blades. ⚔️ but not those as of yet. 📸⚔️📸
Honestly Im assuming the unavailability is due to a packaging change.
Worked in retail and we would get products recalled due to packaging issues all the time.
I got 2 my Walmart has 30 plus of this model plus other folders and cold steel 2 pack machete
I’m interested in seeing the omaga spring. Might just buy some for springs.
I'm guessing that is the issue with them but if you were to buy one and put a benchmade axis lock omega spring in it then maybe you'd end up with a better $5 knife for $6 + spring that still has 3cr steel that will dull the second you use it
@@kevinAuman1 he should just get a ganzo and call it a day lol
This is just a small srm made knife. Make Reate, Ruike, SRM, Sr, Elite tactical. Chinese manufacturers, cnc lathing.
I bet it just needs some TLC with lube and pivot adjust. I didn't see any at my WM.
I would suspect that the dud is the constant, and the one that works perfectly is the anomaly.
It's kind of strange that people who want one can't get them, but I don't and my local Walmart has a bunch of them.
I don't carry modern folders and don't buy Chinese knives, but it is still interesting to me that you can now get such a decent knife for $6.
That would have been great when I still carried modern style knives and bought Chinese knives, and this particular knife probably would have been right up my alley too.
What do you carry nowadays?
@@carlostovar8585 I only carry exclusively traditional knives, and nothing from China or Taiwan.
Smaller 2 blade slipjoints, lockbacks, and modestly sized sheath knives, carbon steel whenever available.
One of my absolute favorites is the humble little Buck 305 lancer ( in spite if the SS blades) and I currently have 6 different versions.
Looks like a return
i suprised you didnt take it apart and try lubing it up. you can tell the Torx screws were in different places, perhaps too tight ? idk.
Can you remove the scales without the rest of the knife coming apart?
Cool deal👍🍻
At my local wallyworld,, there was only a few in the whole display. OK,, try to open it up and have a poke at it. Also maybe make a quick video while you doing it.
I've cut marked a package of something that was broken right out of the "box" & saw it on the shelf less than a week later. So I wouldn't put it past your WM to do it too! Also, I know you like everything Cutlery & respect that fact, but this is why I don't buy cheap shiit.
What’s the product #for this knife I tried to catch it when you flipped it the box over but couldn’t 😂😂
Just get a harbor freight Gordon flipper in 8cr13mov for under 10. Ozark trail steel sux
Try tightening the pivot or take it apart and clean and re oil it and see what's up with it. 🤷♂️😂
I love the $3 felet knives at ww
I don't understand why anyone buys anything @ Wal-Mart - and a knife where the steel isn't even disclosed. ??...There are plenty of decent, inexpensive knives that can be had from legit knife makers/brands. Don't waste your $6.
$6 is almost free to many people and walmarts are everyone thats why its popular, the steel doesn't even matterb for $6, lol when its dull you just sharpen it...f it breaks you throw it out...There arent many $6 knives from any known makers either...its just too cheap to compete against...
Lots in Texas available.
Mayb the omega springs r not installed properly, causong binding and improper lock up/ detent.
maybe some adjustment clean and disassembly is called for.
I bought a ganzo firebird F7601 I’m having similar problems it doesn’t flick open good an doesn’t close right it’s to tight an won’t open close fidgety like it show’s it was $21.00
what about their multi tool? Anygood?
Jeff, a falling knife has no handle.

There's a lot of people, who despite passing driver's ed, and getting a license still don't really belong on the road.🤦♂️🤣
When they remodeled my local store they clearance them out for a dollar.
My local Walmart has hundreds of them. West Chester ,Ohio
I also bought a fixed blade
My Walmart has about 10 of them. I don’t care for them. I guess for the price they are okay but I don’t like messing around with a cheap knife. The grip is super cheap, the pocket clip is pretty good, the axis lock is terrible. Mine didn’t work right out of the packaging
How much are they?
@@bds123087 If I remember right, somewhere around $6
We're in every Walmart I want in I bought four of them
Wish I could find them at the Walmart near me. And they’re not even online. Sucks
I'm a Door Dasher and I need a recommendation on a powerful flashlight that I can use to c the addresses on the homes I tried the Wowtac but I my opinion it's a POC.
I went to my local Walmart to get one and they haven’t put up any of the new blades yet I found nothing
Ozark trail knives are ok and they put a knife in your pocket when you need one.
What kind of oil do you use to lubricate your pivots? I have a bugout (with flytanium brass scales) and i cannot get that thing smooth. Ive carried it for months opened and closed it thousands of times, adjusted the pivot, and oiled it. It has never been smooth enough to just pull back the axis lock and let the blade fall out or flick it out with my wrist. The only way i can get it to do that is when I loosen the pivot more, but then i run into the problem of blade play. If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Polish the blade in and around the pivot hole and then the lock bar and track with a Dremel.
I used kpl original on my Benchmade Freek and its glass smooth.
Something is torqued in the new one to where it's not operating smoothly.
I use a $2 knife from Menards.
Take it back and change it
