I've been using the Spinner for about 3 years. It is attached to my Oceanic Excursion BCD. I would not recommend it be used with other brands unless you want to fabricate something to attach it to. The blade has never rusted, fallen out of the sheath, or given me any other problems. It has been used in mostly salt water and some fresh water. Wave action, currents and surface swims are common and it has not let me down.

This knife has a plastic holder which is exceptionally flimsy. The holder has a plastic lock to keep the knife in its place when not being used. I took the knife out of the holder and accidently replaced it while the lock was in the "locked" position. The knife cut through the lock and I cant lock it anymore. I admit that I broke it but I think it is quite an easy mistake to make especially when you are not looking at the holder when replacing the knife while diving. I'll brobably lose it soon. It also rusted after the first use.

Comments about Oceanic Spinner BCD Knife, Black:

The knife is a great size for a small BCD mounted knife, but the BCD mount that comes "included" is poorly designed, the screws actually pulled right through the plastic mounting bracket, luckily during installation and not during a dive where I may have lost the knife on entry without even realizing it. A couple of stainless washers seem to have fixed the problem so all is well.

    Great overall knife, a little tricky to get out when wearing gloves but not really that bad. Its been to Key Largo in some extreme currents. Love it and recommend it to others.

    Excellent little knife

      Comments about Oceanic Spinner BCD Knife, Black:

      I've used this knife for 10 years on nearly 800 dives, including lots of advanced tech and rebreather training. It mounts easily -- I heat a nail and melt two small holes in easy to reach weight or accessory tool pouches on either hip or middle belly, then attach with the included plastic bar set inside the pouch and the small screws poking through the fabric to the outside screwed into sheath. Easiest to use if mounted parallel to belt with the handle forward and the point toward your tank. Reach to L hip w/ R hand, or R hip w/ L hand, grab the handle with 3 fingers and thumb, press the release button with index finger and pull. When done, hold knife the same way, placing index finger on the side of the blade near tip, find the sheath with your index finger, then slide knife in. Works fine w/ heavy neoprene and drysuit dry gloves. No problems.

        Comments about Oceanic Spinner BCD Knife, Black:

        The Knives were purchased and mounted on type III PFD's used for Swift water rescue. The knives are just the right size, small. And they are reasonably priced. If they are lost, they are easily replaced with little cost. The only problem I had was the screws provided, allowed the bracket on back to slip off easily. To fix this I just put different screws in the bracket.

          Comments about Oceanic Spinner BCD Knife, Black:

          This knife is made to mount on an Oceanic BCD. Mounts easily in a convenient location. Has a lock switch that keeps it secure. Could be difficult to unlock with gloves. Doesn't seem like the lock will hold up - just a plastic toggle) but time will tell. Better then the old clip style which the knife would pop out of. Comes with straps which are not really practical due to the small size of the knife. Nice back up but would not have purchased it I did not own a Oceanic BCDS which has mounting grommets for the knife.
