EafengrowEF121 EDC Fixed Blade Knife D2 Blade Steel G10 Handle with Kydex Sheaths for Outdoor Activities Camping

This is a great knife! It has a good weight, the grip is just the right size for a large size hand. Holds an edge and has been very durable. Good retention in the kydex sheath.

Works as intended, comes sharp out the box. No damage to the components and they work as they should. Knife sticks well in the sheath and will not have any problems of falling out. Belt clip allows for carrying vertical or horizontal depending on what you prefer.

To begin with the blade could have been sharper out of the box, just has a so-so edge. The biggest problem I had was that it was just a knife in a box. No paper work, no instructions, nothing. If it’d had basic instructions on the kydex sheath, how to change the angle of the sheath or just how to open the belt clip. This is the first knife I’ve purchased with a kydex sheath so I knew nothing about it, basic instructions would’ve been nice. I’ll just have see what kind of edge I can put on the blade to see if I’ll upgrade my score. I’ve bought a lot of knives in my time, folders, lock back, sheath and everyone of them had some type of paperwork with them, not impressed with a box, th product, and here it is.UPDATE 3/20/25: seller reached out to me and offered my ick of their knives. I thanked them, but declined just wanted instructions included with shipment and a bit better edge on their blade. They replied they’d try to do better with packing and put a better edge on their knives. Excellent customer service response, above and beyond. Up to 4 stars for that.

The days of overpriced knives are over.Many makers of quality knives for under $100 are changing the knife market. Eafengrow is at the top of this list.The expensive brands like TOPS and others, rely on MADE IN USA as justification for the higher prices.It's not WHERE a knife is made, it's about materials and quality control and oversight.It is a world of global competition.My needs for an EDC are many.And I've gone through many knives.Here we have the EAFENGROW 121The Blade: stone washed D2 came razor sharp.9/10Shape and strength : 9/10Fit and Finish :10/10Grip Handles: 9/ 10 ( personally prefer micarta)Sheath : 8/10 very versatile hold knife SOLIDLY and silent.DetailsI wear a medium glove and all 4 fingers fit perfectly. I got lucky all hands will vary.What I have not seen mentioned about the grip panels , are the ergonomics.Each side as an oval indentation.When gripped, tbe tips of my ring and middle fingers fall perfectly into, adding much more purchase.My Index finger perfectly into the choil.Speaking of which, the attention to little things like tbe edge and finish of tbe choil is fantastic.Smoothed, rounded no sharp or uncomfortable edges. Impressive.My thumb naturally falls onto the jimpingA word on that.This knife, hands down, has the absolute best jimping of any knife I have ever held.Any knife. Period.I carry the 121 horizontal on my left side in the front for concealable quick access.It is comfortable wearing , sitting g etc.The end of the handle dies .are a slight bump under a shirt but most knives will.On stro g side standard up and down carry, it is snug up against my side and disappears.On deployment, a firm grip , push of the thumb on tbe sheath and pull , tbe knife draws smoothly and the sheath stays FIRMLY in place. Tight.The sheath for all of its come ity and versatility DOES the 2 main things a sheath SHOULD do: Hold tbe knife quietly reliably and safe in place, and STAY IN PLACE WHEN TBE KNIFE IS PULLED.It's your money.If you desire to spend more than is required, that is, of course, your choice.But Boker, Puma, Tops , Busse, etc etc are NOT any better than this knife. In fact, MY Tops equivalent is NOT AS GOOD.At $26, if I lose it or must discard it I'm not out much.Thus knife is incredibly capable. Camping, fishing, baton work, fire starting g , fishing self defense ..it is stout , heavier than most at around 8 ounces , tough as can be and will serve you well no matter what you demand of it.And that is what an everyday knife should beI urge you to check out all the reviews ND tests of this knife and other EAFENGROW knives.I plan on buying others.

For the money I feel this is a great knife. I wanted to try stepping into the world of EDCing a fixed blade. I've carried folders for close to 40 years. I didn't want to spend a lot of money in case I decided that I didn't care for carrying a fixed blade. This knife is big enough that you can get a full grip on the handle yet small enough not to be super intimidating to most people that see it. It came in sharp enough to use out of the box and I'm sure with just a little work it could be even sharper. I did enjoy the versatility of the clip that came with it. It does allow you to carry either vertically or horizontally. The sheath offers enough retention that I am not concerned about it falling out yet not so much that drawing it is difficult. My only complaint is the belt clip. Although I like the design I did have a lot of problems keeping it locked closed. I liked the design enough that I spend a few extra dollars on buying the original clip that this is a knock of off. With the addition of the new, name brand clip, I'm sure I will get many years of use out of this.

Ove bought 3 of this brand of knife. All have been great. D2 steel, well made. Very comfortable in the hand. Worth every penny paid.

Received the knife and liked immediately. The edge is sharp and retains that sharpness. My only complaint is with the sheath. They claim it is adjustable to fit belt width. I don't find this to be true. As it comes out of the box it will NOT fit an 1-1/2" belt. Most belts are this width so you need to get a 1" belt. Also the belt cannot be very thick or the sheath will not lock closed.

I love this knife. Very strong and reliable.I want to buy another one.
