Eafengrow EF64 Folding Knife D2 Steel Blade G10 Handle Multitool Pocket Knife for Camping Hiking EDC Tool

I don't write a lot of reviews here, but I'm really happy with this knife. It has a couple of minor things I would like to be different, but those are not quality related. The quality for this price is outstanding. The quality on this folder is very good. If I were willing to pay 100 bucks for a pocket knife, I'd expect it to be like this little gem. But the thing is, I have a tendency to lose track of knives. And I like to have them squirreled away around the most likely places I use them, as well as in the cars. So 20 bucks is "high end". For years I preferred to stick with old skool knives - Barlows, canoes, toothpicks. Of late the steel in these types has been decreasing in quality in the budget models. Started branching out. Of late my favorite has been a Schrade(sch106). But I think that this Eafengrow is well worth the slight difference in cost. The only cons I see are the blade profile as delivered and the tip up carry using the pocket clip. I knew it was tip up when I bought it. As for the blade profile, this is common across the board. I'd like the bevel on the cutting edge to extend a bit further back from the edge, more similar to a flat ground blade. Hard to find in this price range. The overall blade profile suits my tastes as far as length and the shallow curve in the belly. It is ground from a blank that appears to be about 4mm thick at the base, so I can't imagine how I could ever damage it.[The micrometer is out in the shed or else I'd have measured it for y'all]. I would like to find something similar that is a bit thinner maybe. Not a big deal. Good utility blade for the money. It is not a razor knife, but it could play one on TV. It made short work of the 6 or 7 boxes I needed to stuff in recycle bin.

Fun little knife. The blade is thick and tough. The D2 steel is quite a challenge to sharpen but will hold an edge very well. At first, the knife was stiff and rough around the edges. The liner lock was a little painful to disengage and the action wasn’t very smooth. I hollowed out a small curve in the G10 handle with a Dremel, near the liner lock and sanded down the sharp edges of the liner and clip screws with a 1500 grit wet/dry paper. So after some minor tweaks This knife is always around... its fun to flip and now closes with one hand. With G10 and D2 .. given its heft, this really is a solid “Tool” dressed as a sort of gentleman’s pocket knife. I’m really pleased with this purchase. Just remember to have patience (and diamond stones) When working with harder steels like D2.

This definitely isnt your cornerstore cheap-O $20 knofe .The quality really is awesome .clip is tight.the texture of the g10 scales are nice when wet .The opening flick is smooth .i will say the blade is D2 so be carefull, it's hard and will stay sharp but the tip will snap if it hits something hard .i love the jade semi-transparent scales are the best looking option in my opinion . Will buy another and is now my daily

I like this knife. Great EDC, smooth release action with ball bearings. Not too stiff, not too loose. Just right. A lot of knife makers (more expensive ones) do this poorly, so was very happy to see this was perfect. The handle is a bit thick, but not a big deal since the blade is thicker and therefore more sturdy.

I really like eafengrow knives. I have quite a few knives in my collection, ranging from more expensive spyderco and emerson models to a range of $20-ish knives. These are fun to mess around with. The only issue with this model is that for a smaller pocket-carry, it's pretty thick. It'd be an awesome daily knife with the blade size but sadly it's just too thick IMO for the length. Other than that, grind is even, lock is secure, action is smooth, fit and finish are great.

Let me say I am a knife guy at heart. I love cold steel knives, kershaw, zero tolerance, and many other American companies, but for the price I have had nothing but good results from the couple Chinese made pocket knives I’ve bought. This is one of them. I give them as gifts to my sons knowing they will not be taken care of and if lost not a big deal. As for performance I have gutted deer with this brand and use a couple other Chinese made knives. All have been easy to sharpen and keep their edges.. if you’re looking for a pretty rugged pocket knife with a great price value then you can’t go wrong with this company. I’ve also bought their fixed blade knives for gifts but they tend to be a lot on the heavy side. Strong but heavy.

I was shopping for a small knife to be a gift for someone I knew did not like a large or heavy knife in their pocket. This model is even smaller than I estimated, is light, and could be easily carried in dress pants. Though the quality and function are superb, I deducted a star for a lack of indent at the liner lock. It is flush with the handle. I have large calloused working hands and would have to hold the blade with my left hand to stabilize as I forced a finger into the lock release. The intended recipient has giant calloused working hands, so before gifting, I dissaassembled the knife and filed an inlet above the lock release, into the opposite handle. The recipient is now able to manipulate adequately, and is impressed with the lasting sharpness. For those who would like to know, the blade is only beveled leading up to the cutting edge, which I could not determine from the photos. The Eafengrow I carry myself is beveled all the way to the blade spine, and can be passed through many layers of cardboard easily, without being grabbed by the work.

Very good quality knife for the price. Easy to open with smooth action and easy to hold.
