NedFossDOLPHIN Pocket Knife, 3.5" D2 Steel EDC Knife Folding Knife with Black PVD Blade, Lightweight Carbon Fiber Insert G10 Handle, Deep Carry Pocketclip

This is my first knife from this maker, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I figured for around $25, what do I have to lose? First impression, it’s a good looking knife and a nice little case.. The flipper action is pretty smooth and walks open securely.. decent steel but I haven’t used it yet so I can’t say how it will hold an edge. It was pretty sharp right out of the box, but I did touch it up a little to get it “shaving”sharp. The blade (Edge to spine) is somewhat narrow, so I don’t know how the blade geometry is, but it seems like it would be good for general light cutting use. I give it four stars because it’s not the best knife I’ve ever bought in that price range, but I’m definitely happy with it and would recommend it as an inexpensive but decent knife.

Wow what a nice pocket knife, looks like it’s built well and finished nicely. The knife comes with a nice zipper case and a cleaning cloth. Be careful this knife is very sharp. It also has a strong pocket clip, and does not feel very thick in your pocket. I feel that it is a good value.

The knife is well made and sharp. I do NOT like the flipper for the index finger. It is "cute". However, you have a less than strong grip on the knife during an emergency and could easily drop it. I intend to remove the flipper for the index finger from my knife. The thumb flipper is strong and dependable.

Nice looking and very good action opening and closing. Well worth the price.

When looking for a knife all you really want is something practical, not too big, not too small with a good sharp blade. This knife checks all the boxes, plus it looks good doing it. Just a cool knife!

Excellent knife!

This is my second NedFoss folding knife, it replaces the one I managed to misplace.Although the form factor is a bit different than my old Ned Foss Beast, the critical elements are much the same.The pivot is exquisite. Once the blade starts moving, it's the smoothest pivot I've experienced.The steel is great. D2 is a fine stainless steel, holds an edge extremely well, at the small price of tedious sharpening. It's a hard, resilient steel that doesn't stain/rust easily.The side profile is very narrow. This makes it easy to carry, but doesn't feel as secure in my hand as a more standard blade/handle profile. That being said, it has never slipped or accidentally turned in my hand, so it works fine.The thumb open and index open are fine, nothing special, except that they lead to that exquisite pivot.Overall, I'm very happy with this knife, and would recommend it to anyone looking for an everyday carry folding knife.

It opens great. Super sturdy. Comes dull as a rock. Needs sharpening after every use if you want it really sharp. Can’t seem to hold an edge cutting anything. Hard to get super sharp.
