Ratings and Reviews
Pleasantly surprised
This little guy surprised me a lot. I was expecting a mediocre knife at best. It's SUPER slim and carries great. Nice and discreet. It opens so incredibly smooth due to the use of ball bearings. And it's so light. This immediately found its way into my rotation. Only complaint is that the blade favors the show side. It would be okay, but tightening the pivot screws or loosening…

them only helps for a very small window of time before I have to do it again.
Edit 3 months in of random light carry- Bladeplay has increased, blade centering is getting worse by the day, and now it unexpectedly waves open.
Great for its size
Overall look and feel is great for a smaller gentleman's knife. Mine came a little dull, but with some stroping, came out razor sharp. Great for EDC esp in an office setting.
Honestly, one of my favorites
I legitimately couldn't be more impressed with this knife. CRKT (for me) seems to consistently deliver on form and function. I find myself grabbing this knife as my #2 almost daily. My primary knife is always something with a little more "flair" - typically matches my EDC of the day, or is something fitting for whatever occasion I'm going to. I have a leather pocket organizer where… read more I keep a Big Ideas Ti Click pen, a small flashlight, and 9 times out of 10, the Inara. It's slim, lightweight, perfect for opening boxes or packages, had a sharp edge out of the box and has been a breeze to keep it that way. The shape is kind of unique and being able to set it blade facing the table (but not touching) is awesome when doing repetitive tasks. I can't say enough about bang for buck on this one. If you're on the fence, I really don't think you'll be disappointed - go for it!
Awesome and discreet
This is a great little knife. It shares the same designer as the CRKT CEO and that's probably the closest knife to compare it to. The Inara, however, is lighter, shorter, and thinner than the CEO.
It's extremely light, and while not quite deep-carry, is very discreet in the pocket. The blade is small at 2.75" and the wharncliffe-like profile doesn't look "pointy", so it's not…

likely to frighten anyone in an office if you open it up to cut tape on a box, cut a cable tie or open an envelope. Open it slowly though if easily scared people are a concern, because the Inara, although unassisted, flies open on its bearings.
The factory edge on my Inara was very sharp, I didn't even need to hone it so I'd say unusually sharp, although YMMV. It's a small, fairly thin blade so you won't want to use it for cutting cardboard all day or skinning a deer, but as a low-profile office edc or even a "gentleman's knife" this seems like an excellent choice.
