Eafengrow EF69 Pocket EDC Knife with Clip,Flipper Folding Knife for Camping Survival and Outdoor Activities Liner Lock. (EF69-desert)

I’ve had this knife on my save for later list for awhile now and I finally picked it up! I don’t know why I waited so long because this is such a great knife! It’s a mid-size knife with a 3.5 inch blade that’s really nice looking with the two tone finish and it came shaving sharp! The action on this knife is very snappy and smooth with a solid lock up with no play! The two tone g10 handle is real comfortable in your hand and is very grippy! It’s an awesome knife and I’m thinking of picking up the desert colored one also! Easy 5 stars!

Robust knife! Maybe a little too much for EDC, but I keep this with me for any camping or outdoor adventures. Blade comes pretty sharp but can use a tune up out of the box, solid feel with minimal slop and overall nice quality. Especially for the price.

I use knives every day, and like all of us, have personal preferences when making a selection. This knife is my first Eafengrow product, and it fits the bill for me nicely. It is a flipper with a liner lock managed by one hand without more complicated mechanisms that could fail a bit easier. For medium sized hands, the handle has an amazing and rock solid fit, even though the scales are smooth. There is jimping on the blade that is a great assist with detail work, as well as the liner making blade stowage easy. The blade is D2 tool steel (comes razor sharp), and has very good edge retention and certainly contributes to the low price point. My small beef is with the pocket clip - it is quite strong (good), but the tip sticks out and and can scratch anything you come up against (getting in or out of a vehicle, etc.). I tried unsuccessfully to bend it down, or find a replacement, so I use it accordingly. Exceptional value.

I'm by no means a knife snob, but I very much appreciate quality materials and workmanship. I have, amongst others, knives made by Benchmade, Spyderco, Zero Tolerance and Cold Steel. They range from $20 upwards of $300, mostly folders. This Eafengrow (thankfully abbreviated as EF as etched/printed on the blade) is a very well made knife assembled with very high quality materials. The blade material has D2 printed and the natural finish of the metal matches that of other blades that I have that are also D2 steel. The G10 scales are nicely finished, I just wished they had a little more texture for better grip - they're slightly slick for the mass of the blade/knife. The pocket clip has a nice stonewashed finished and has plenty of tension for secure grip in the pocket. The best feature of this knife however is the bearing (NOT bushing) for the pivot. Even the best oiled sintered bronze bushings suffer from having to balance screw tension for smoothness/ease of operation and for a secure pivot and lack of lateral movement. Typically bearings are used the highest end (read:very expensive) knives. This bearing allows for extremely slick and smooth operation while allowing for virtually NO lateral movement - awesome. The heavy blade opens with an authoritative "CLACK" when flicked open with either the thumb stud or the flipper - no doubt the bearing plays a major role in the speed of deployment. Two issues I have with the knife, both of which a subjective. The liner lock, while locking up tight to stay open, does not have much tension in keeping the blade closed in the frame. It's a little too easy to open and with a blade this large, heavy and sharp, I would prefer more tension in staying closed. Secondly, while the aforementioned clip is well made and finished, it only allows for one carry option - tip down. I carry all of my other knives tip up. The value of this knife is built upon the fantastic build materials, components, and workmanship. Even with a couple of shortcomings, the extraordinarily low price earns this knife keeper status and a spot in my daily rotation.

Beautiful knife ! Quality craftsmanship, solid Lock up. Rides easy in the pocket but means business when utilized. Very happy

The blade has heft to it which makes it easy to flip open. The ergonomics are sound; one-handed opening and closing is easy to manage. The blade locks up tight without any play. The knife is beefy but not overbuilt. The only minor complaint is that the grip is a little small for me in terms of width but I wear XL gloves. The blade shape is appealing and has proven functional. All in all this is a good buy.

As the title says, this is the best knife I've ever bought considering its cost. It's non spring assisted but it's buttery smooth opening because it has a ball bearing at its pivot. It's very sharp out of the packaging "which was also very nice" can shave beard hair even. I've been using it for two months now at work and home. The only thing I've had to do was put a dab of locktite on the thumb assist as it came loose. The ease of opening / blade tightness is also easily adjustable if it's not how you like it out of the box. I intentionally dulled it down a bit so I can attempt to re-sharpen it, it takes a sharpening very well and holds its edge well. Bottom line I was just looking for a cheap knife to beat up at work but this thing is solid, after being in a sweaty pocket for hours a day, water and whatever else it's come into contact with it doesn't show any rust, corrosion or sticking of the pivot. Buy it!

I hate to say this... but it's kind of a miss. The clip is the wrong way. It's heavy, too heavy for EDC. Blade seems good, a little uneven on the sharpening.
