Firebird Ganzo G628-GR EDC Folding Pocket Knife Razor Sharp 8Cr14 Blade PP Handle with Clip Outdoor Hunting Fishing Hiking Folder Best Gift for Men (Green)

Good quality great price

Excellent knife with spring assisted blade. Great for opening Amazon packages.

One hand open, unlock, and closing with what another manufacturer (of much more expensive knives) terms "assisted folder opening with flipper" but I've seen other, punchier names. Blade has kept its edge well. Holding it, the only clue that the body wasn't metal is that the low thermal conductivity gives it away as some type of plastic. Also has a sharp point on the end opposite the blade that they show being used for breaking automobile glass (didn't test that!) and a separate cutting edge that they show being used to cut a, automobile seat belt (didn't test that either). Very good quality for a very low price. Really would be a nice gift. Recommended, would buy again.

Great, solid, sturdy, hefty, lock blade pocket knife, with finger assist open. And by finger assist open, I mean you can use one finger, to pull down a little lever, and the blade will come swinging out, and lock into position. Much better and much safer that the style of pocket knife that does not lock into place, once opened fully, like many of the Swiss Army knives for example... many do not lock, which can cause real problems if your're not careful. This is a good quality knife, that's very well made, with no loose components, and the metal clip is secured well, so it carries easy hooked to a pants or shorts, waist line.... which I will never own a knife without a clip, that's a must for me. This is a fairly heavy knife, compared to 2 others of similar size I have, so it's meaty, so to speak, has some heft to it. One thing that caught my eye on this and I thought was an excellent attribute, that not all knives have by any means, is the car window breaker... and not so much the ability to break a window from the inside, but from the outside, where I'd think it more likely to have a realistic usage scenario, rather than from the inside with some type of fluke emergency or something. Great product.

These are the worse Ganzo knives I have ever bought (carry one FB272s, and love it), but I didn't get them for EDC, I got them as emergency auto escape tools, and for that they work great, big, rugged, and with a glass breaker and belt cutter.

For the money I would have given this a 5 star review, but the Seat Belt Cutter isn't sharp at all out of the box. Knife itself has a pretty decent edge and it feels good in the hand. Overall it's worth the $7 your paying for it as a little beater or a life knife for a kid's birthday.

Ganzo is actually fairly well known for knives at the upper end of the "cheap knife" spectrum. I've owned several of their knives for a few years now and find the quality well exceeds the price, so I have high hopes for this brute in the long term. Fit and finish is amazing for a knife selling for $15 at time of review. This more of a "rescue" or "tactical" style knife given the hooked belt-cutter at the back (separate dedicated blade) and the overall size/weight - plus the obligatory "glass breaker" on the butt (not tested by this reviewer). Both the assisted-opening spring and the liner lock needed a few cycles to break in and operate smoothly and positively - so if you're giving these as gifts and you want the recipient to be impressed, spend 10-15 minutes opening and closing them before wrapping. Personally I'm not a huge fan of "flippers" to open knives, but this one works reasonably well - I'd just prefer a thumbstud instead. Heck of a value for the small amount of money these command!

Nice looking knife. Has that tactical look. There is a single flip out blade that is helped out with finger assisted nib. The blade locks in the extended position easily. Overall length with blade extended is about 8-1/4 inches long. The "liner lock" works well to both unlock the blade from the closed position and then in the open position. I ordered the green version of this knife. Not a huge thing but the contrasting green color gives a high end look to the knife. The seat belt cutter and window breaking point are a nice idea, but I don't think I'll ever have a need to use them. The clip is robust and only slightly raised from the knife handle. As such, the knife will stay close to your body and not be uncomfortable in use.
