A Better Bargain is Hard to Come By.
WOW, for under $50.00 this knife is a masterful cutting device! Blackhawk is winning the war for innovative, inexpensive, super performing and extremely well made knives! The BHB40 fits the hand like a glove, is easy opening with the elongated thumb hole and the serrations cut like a saber tooth tiger. And finally, the BHB40 has a black clip (love those). Buy this knife as your everyday carry. For the price, you can't go wrong.

Great budget tactical folder
This knife is very solid for the entry-level price. The construction reminds me of many zytel handled lockbacks like Cold Steel's Voyagers, or Spyderco Enduras. The pocket clip is fully reversible for left/right, tip up/tip down carry and the handle is textured with the BHB logo and provides a nice grip, even with wet hands. The tanto point is nice and, well, pointy. But it's very strong for such a needle sharp tip. The stonewash/tumbled blade finish looks good and the budget steel is easier than expected to touch up on a ceramic or diamond rod. The lockback mechanism is very solid and there's zero play in the locked blade. The narrow thumb-opener slot takes some getting used to, but it works, and the entire package is easily cleaned with running water. My only regret is that I bought this at a retail store without first checking the less expensive knifecenter price!
