EF122 Fixed Blade Knife

Great price in a solid, well-made knife that is comfortable in the hand. Came sharp out of the box and has a very nice sheath. Very happy with this purchase!

Absolutely fantastic quality knife. I had read other reviews on Eafengrow but was skeptical of how good a $30 knife could be. Received the knife and was blown away with the build quality. Solid built and sturdy. It is a beast of a knife. Amazing edge straight out of the box. Comfortable ergonomics and feels perfect in hand. It does not have jimping on the top, however, with the grip shape and angle of the blade off the handle there is zero slip or play. The sheath is awesome and has such a snug fit that locks in place with zero play or wiggle, yet still releases the knife with ease when being deployed. This knife is an absolute steal at $30 and if it had a different name on it would easily be a $150-$200 knife. If you're looking for a good largeish fixed blade, grab this one and you will not be disappointed.Great work Eafengrow.

Great knife, at twice the price. The handle is comfy fory large hands, and the size and angle make it great for a skinning knife for deer and larger animals.The blade came sharp enough to field dress and quarter an animal, but if you're serious like me, it takes a scary sharp razor edge if you know what you're doing.It should be fairly weather and blood resistant; as always, keep them clean and lightly oiled.The sheath is well made and holds the knife firmly; trade-off being that it can be noisy, unless you master the thumb-assisted de-sheathing technique.All in all, it is remarkable that a knife of this quality can be made this cheaply.I can't tell you about how it batons or cuts through car hoods or how long it takes to hack a pine tree down with it, because I am a high functioning adult, and also own hatchets, axes, and machetes for such tasks. It is big enough to handle any problem I've ever encountered in mountains or jungles, anywhere, but the right size and angle for the control needed for finesse work.

This is a nice knife for the price. There are a few draw backs but nothing major mainly just me picking at it but here are the main pointsFirst the pro’sIt has a good balance. The weight distribution is really nice. So if your hacking at branch it will do good.The knife is sturdy was hacking away with it and beating it up to clear brush and small trees.Con’sThe knife dosnt come sharp you’ll have to do that yourself but it will cut with enough forceThe handle is nice but for hacking at trees it will dig into your hand I would recommend wearing gloves

This is a very nice knife. It was bought for camping and should do well. It's the perfect size. Feels great in the hand. Solid grip, no slipping around. Heavy enough for tough work. Came with a very sharp edge. It locks tight in the kydex sheath, and releases easily with a moderate pull or by pressing your thumb against a convenient push off point at the top. Time will tell how well it holds up. Right now, I'm very pleased.

The knife arrived with good protective packaging just 1 day after placing my order. Inspection of the knife revealed no flaws what so ever and the D2 steel was protected with a light coating of grease and placed in a plastic-like bag. Unlike some who found the sheath not able to hold the knife securely, mine was more than up to the task... I was really surprised to find the knife was so tightly secured that I thought that it was locked in place. It took more than considerable effort to get it out! I put it back in the sheath and found it equally difficult to remove it. Tension was simply too tight. I was able to wedge the top opening next to the top rivet to loosen the tension. Believe me, this sheath secures the knife!CONCLUSION: You can't wear it out... it will be around a long, long time. Trying to find a better quality knife under $125-$150 is not likely gonna happen.PROS: Knife is "indestructible", if properly taken care of it can easily last 100+ years; full tang construction with lanyard loop; stone wash finish protects blade from scratching; extremely durable and comfortable G10 scales with no hot spots; can definitely handle chopping chores; can be sharpened razor sharp; and comes with a very durable sheath.Outstanding overall quality. Terrific camp knife, probably one of the best there is at a super price.CONS: No jimping on the spine; too large and heavy for EDC; weight may be too much for backpacking; skinning style blade may not be best for most uses. Price is likely to go up due to demand... better order it now!

Amazing knife and sheath. I am a shop around Amazon fool, and I looked at every single knife, until I decided on this one. For $30 you can't beat it. The blade is sharp enough, impressive and actually dangerous looking. It definitely has a tactical feel. The handle scales and full tang handle, feel good in the hand. The tang is buffed nice and has no rough edges. The feel of the handle still is a bit rectangular, but you can change these scales out. Best bang for the buck going. The sheath is amazing and needs to be given 5 stars as well.

This knife is made very well. Has a look and feel that rivals fixed blades at 2 & 3x the price of this one. The steel, i can't verify if true D2, as advertised, but it seems to hold an edge well. It may be 8CR13MOV but again I can't say, and for the money that's okay if so. Good edge retention, pretty strong tip (tested within reason), very comfortable in the hand, and easy to wield and work with.The sheath is molded very nice for a good fit and a positive "click" as the knife seats into it. The tek-lok belt attachment isn't a real Blade-Tech brand, but it's still quality and functions well.This will make a great "user" knife that will be stylish, and you won't feel bad for getting some wear on it because it's so affordable. I'll be buying more Eafengrow fixed blades, if they're all as nice as this example of one.
