Eafengrow EF123 Fixed Blade Knife 14c28n Steel Blade G10 Handle Fixed Knife for Outdoor Camping Hunting Survival Tool Knives with Kydex Sheaths

Even though this knife is made in China, it is very well made. I have replaced the Kydex sheath, because it did not retain the knife securely enough. The thickness of the blade, means it will hold up to hard use. Its a knife, it functions as it should. Holds a good edge and is well balanced.

I would not expect it to be this good. Great quality knife. Hard steel. Will hold sharpness but will be tough to sharpen. Very comfortable in hand. Used one for cooking and another one for construction. Works great for both applications.

First thing I did was put a polish on the blade, as you can see in my picSecond thing I had to do was to re-mold the kydex sheath, as it was too loose to properly secure the blade. That cost it a star.The blade steel is pretty good, the symmetry is excellent, and the overall feel is very sturdy (you can definitely baton wood with it). The blade was very sharp out of the box, and with a few minutes on the strops it’s hair-popping. At this price, I can’t fault the choice of the handle screws, but I might replace them as they protrude out of the handle. Also, there’s finger choil is a tad small, so be careful doing carving or feather sticking.Overall, I’m happy to have given this knife a chance.

This is a great design, suitable both for outdoors use as well as tactical use. The finger choil allows for for enhanced blade control during detail carvings (bushcraft). The G10 handle scales are not very textured, but unless they are very greasy, they are not slippery. This is not a skinning knife, so that shouldn't be a consideration anyway. If the steel is indeed 14C28N, it provides excellent stain resistance, edge holding and toughness. Very happy with this purchase.

I am now the owner of several Eafengrow knives, and I think everyone of them is special. It's wonderful to find a quality knife that us poor country boys can afford. Keep up the great work Eafengrow folks.

It's just another outstanding knife at a great price. You can literally beat and abuse Efengrow knives and not worry if you could find a way to damage them. Just buy another one. But I really think you could abuse these knives without a problem. Their that good. At least everyone I've bought has never shown me any problem.

Grind on the blade was impeccable. However, the hilt was tilted and grip panels were askew. Some sharp edges on grip where panels didn't align. Sheath fit well. Was able to address the finish problems, including the hilt, myself. Now a very nice knife.

I bought this knife as a gift for a friend. The knife came out of the box super Sharp it seems very well made especially at this price point.
