A great pocket knife, especially if you want a spring-assisted, non-serrated blade.

We are obsessed with this product and are wanting to buy a couple more! Fire starter is easy to get out and use, the knife is sharp, overall just a way cool and useful product

Amazing knife but over time the opening and closing of the knife got very loose but the sharpnesses of the knife remains the same. The weight and size of the knife makes it fast and easy to carry around with you at work or any other place you might need it. I use it to open up packages and works great.

This is the second knife I’ve purchased from Grand Way. The first was far more decorative (but useful), this second one is very practical. I’ve used it on a couple weekend backpacking trip now and have no complaints. The blade deployment is easy (with one hand if needed) and fold up easily once the lock is disengaged. Using the knife fully with one hand works well but you do need a bit of dexterity to do so (opening and closing). The “extra” features on the knife ( spark striker and whistle) work well. The whistle can be used without removing it from the knife and is extremely high pitched and clear (I scared the heck out of my cats with it by accident when testing it). I suspect it’ll be useful for frightening off wildlife that gets a little to chummy. The striker works (you have to scrape down the finish, as with any striker) well enough. It is very small and intended for emergency use (I’d not use it as your main fire lighting source simply due to size), and in that regard it works well. I was able to light a homemade fire starter / tinder (cotton ball covered in Vaseline) within just a minute or so of trying. The extra paracord wrapped on the handle may be hard to remove, but could be done in an emergency if needed, it’s mostly there for grip and hang utility though. This knife seems to be a great value for a 440c blade in a package that is very useable and attractive. I’m hoping to enjoy using it for years. I’m hard on knives, and will update down the road if I find issues, but for now I think it’s great and am planning on ordering a few more for stocking stuffers this year.

For the price i am pleased with this knife. I have not used it yet. Its sheath is actually nice. Its is sharp enough to shave the hair on my arm. It should be capable its nice and thick and should take a beating. Its not a crowbar so dont treat it like that. But for the price you can actually use it and not care. The steel its made of should take and hold an edge what else do you need.

I am posting this because I had just bought two more of these very sharp knives!! They went through a corded military belt like a hot knife though butter!!!!! Well worth the price!!

Dangerous! Check the blade lock First! This knife feels sturdy, sharp and well constructed. However like others have observed, the blade fails to lock open. This is a very dangerous flaw! The problem is that the catch does not slip behind the heel of the blade and not enough material was ground from the heel to fit it. (Edit: I received a replacement knife and I'm quite pleased with it. All aspects are functional and it is very sturdy. The grip is very comfortable and easy hold. The knife opens easily and the blade lock functions as it should. The emergency whistle and flint are difficult to remove but I'm ok with that as I want these to be there if I ever need them.)

Great blade stays sharp sharps easy plus fire on the side.
