There have been many threads where we mention just terrible knives. And we all had them. This is just a thread dedicated to those low quality or poorly designed knives. We all had a few.
I just found the old Microtech 325 knife that kinda resembles karambit. It belonged to my sibling, and the tip of it was bent by my mother long time ago, the blade is wobbly and this thing is just incredibly dull.
Then I remember small unbranded knife that my grandpa gave to me years ago. It was small bowie styled folding blade. It was incredibly hard to close once you opened it, and blade started to dance after first use.
Then there is first knife I ever bought myself, the S&W small fixed blade. I was a teen back then. It looked decent, and was full tang. But the spine was kinda asymetrical. And the blade was just... it would go dull almoust instantly. It took long time to sharpen and would go dull straight away. It was 3mm thick and still got bent when I accidentally sat on it. I just threw it to trash. It cost me 2€ in case someone is wondering.
Then there was "Harry" knife I got as a gift from my friend. It was just full tang knife without handle on the tang, it had good edge retention but was rather uncomfortable so I used electrical tape to make a handle. And that knife just snapped on me on a winter day, and yes, steel did look like sand on the place where it snapped. I guess it cost him just few €.
