FLISSABushcraft Knife, Fixed Blade Knife with Nylon Sheath, Stainless Steel Blade, Ideal for Camping, Backpacking, Fishing, Hiking or Survival, 4 Inch

This Flissa knife is very pleasant to use. Its comfortable grip is great. I am always happy to find a new opportunity to take it in hand and use it. It is very sharp and good for cutting open plastic blister packaging, and cutting the sharp corners off of paperback books. It can cut through a stack of 300 pages with no problem. It is 0.1 inches thick (2.5mm) which is thicker than most kitchen knives, but not quite suitable for batoning/pounding on for campsite processing/splitting of thick wood. This would also make a good self defense knife. The sheath is plastic and of good quality, but better for hanging on a belt than hiding in a pocket. It takes some effort to get the knife out of the sheath.

I've been using this Flissa to scrape paint on a stucco repair job. I also used it to scrape paint from some rough cast iron. I used it to cut some heavy raw hide stock down to project pieces. It dulls like any blade, then it takes a new edge well.I changed it from the original 20 degree grind to 25 degrees. Then, ended up bringing it back to 20, primarily because it seemed to dull at about the same pace with harsh use.I've sharpened it so much that the blade isn't as wide, edge to spine, as it was originally. Haven't seen any chips in the steel edge. Haven't seen any voids in the steel.I like the handle's shape. The bumps on rear pommel and front finger guard make it easy to keep my hand in the right place. The handle is long enough, for my man's size large hand, without rubbing on the outside of my little or index fingers.I like that the blade edge comes right down to the finger guard. Knives with a notch or no edge there make it difficult to cut cord or rope.It took me a while to get use to withdrawing the knife from the sheath. It seemed difficult at first. But now I grab the blade without thinking about it. The trick is to place my thumb on the sheath and pull up with fingers. I can also replace the knife in the sheath with having to look at it. The ridgid sheath makes the tool much more useful for a workman.The blade is a little thicker than the Mora Companion. And the spine is machined square, unlike the unfinished Companion's spine.The cost of any product is a primary component of a review. Both the price and the utility of this knife/sheath make it a very high value for the money. It isn't refined like a $200 blade made in the USA. It is mass produced in China and sold for about $10. It's a tool that I can grab for any use (abuse) and not worry what I paid for it.

Very sharp

Absolutely razor sharp out of the box!! Delivered almost overnight and looks to be on a par with Morakniv for slightly less. Added bonus is the same size sheath allows knife to be resheathed by either hand in either orientation and locks in securely. Bought an extra as a gift. Will be getting more!!

I’ve had this to use at home to open boxes and such. But I finally got to take it camping over the weekend and was batoning wood with it. Even though it’s not full tang, it’s cheap enough that I don’t mind breaking it and replacing it.I bought like 5 to keep in different areas, cars, emergency kits, camping stuff, etc.If it goes on sale, I will purchase more as gifts.

Tough lil bait cutting knife not rusting

Very sharp knife and well made for the price.

I blind purchased this knife during Prime Day for $8. As you can see from the photos, the Flissa (green on handle) is nearly identical to the fine Morakniv Companion I already own. Quality is comparable and it was less than 1/2 the price of a new Mora. Being made of stainless steel, it's perfect for a fishing box, car glove box, or for an emergency "go" bag. And being inexpensive, it won't be a big hardship if it were left at a campsite or otherwise lost.The only issue is the back spine is not quite sharp enough to use with a ferro rod to start a fire. So at some point I'll run a file back and forth a few times about halfway down the spine to sharpen the edge for this purpose.
