VG10 Damascus Steel Pocket Knife

I have tried hundreds of knives and this Aubey knife is by far the best out there. It is razor sharp, extremely easy to open and close but be careful closing as this knife is razor sharp. It is also a beautiful looking knife as well. I wear it everywhere I go in my pocket. This is actually the third one I have bought as I leave an extra one in my cars so I am never without this amazing knife. Please note, I was not compensated in any way for this review.

It's a big knife with a thick blade took a little time to reprofile it to 15 degrees now it's a good cutting knife. As a damascus steel sandwiched between vg 10 steel the vg steel is a little thinner than other ones but price point is enough to look passed that. As a flipper it is easy opening and that big blade moves a little slower. Once open up grip is good but it is slick so removing from pocket it can slip out of hand. putting a lanyard on the end will help a lot. maybe the paint /aluminum together. Also the clip is nice but too thin and with thin fabric pants it's not a stronghold in the pocket. In jeans its ok. I have bent it in some and that helps I will upgrade it the next time I Have to bend it again. I like blades at least 3.5 in or better and this one feels longer than it is given the size of the blade. Not known this aubey knife I googled it and found a guy in Austra testing the tango knife on a hood of a car trying to destroy the knife and it did hold up very well but don't like the tango style. people always say wow big knife but when compared to my spyderco endura with a 3.82 in k390 blade they still think this blade looks just as long. A very good knike and great price

This knife is surprisingly awesome. I got it because i was curious about the "cleaver" style blade and figured a moderately priced knife would be a good way to learn about it. It is now one of my favorite EDC knives. Is it truly Damascus steel? I'm not an expert and i don't know, but i don't really care. It looks neat, comes quite sharp, and feels strong. The shape of the blade is what i really like about the knife. Other cleaver blades tend to feel clunky and unwieldy, but this flows out from your grip in an ergonomic fashion allowing you to use either tip or edge depending on the job. The blade comes back from the tip to have a point that is "pointy" enough to pierce packages and start cuts. Be aware the blade is thicker than most. The handle is thick enough and the right shape for a strong ergonomic grip. A little texture would have been nice, but it's hard to get texture right so I'm happy as it is. My only complaint about the knife would be that the wooden grips don't come flush with the metal frame, which does affect the comfort of your grip. It's a bit heavy, which i don't mind but some people might not like it. It's also a bit bulky, which you can feel in your pocket. Again, i don't mind it but some people might. The leather sheath is silly and immediately went in the trash. The knife has a good clip and sits in the pocket well, so the sheath is completely unnecessary.

First off this knife is extremely sharp out of the box. It comes in a little case and is ready for use. The ball bearings will take some getting used to. Its not spring Assisted opening, but sometimes with very little pressure it opens quickly and fully. Sometimes it doesnt, but no matter what it has avery smooth action. The pocket clip is on the wrong side from what im used to, but that is about the worst I can say about this knife. The lock is very secure doesnt feel weak or seam to not hold well. The blade is very stiff no side to side play very sturdy unlike my much more expensive name brand knifes. Over all I get the same quality of a knife as the top dog knifes for a fraction of the price. Best value for your money by far.

Good craftsmanship Good material, looks good, opens and closes good, looks good, not a expert on steel but with a magnifying glass you can see the fold lines on the flat edge and the sharp edge,and was very easy to put a razor edge on it just like real damascus steel, so yes I think that is real damascus steel. The one I received came with a cheap nylon sheath and no zipper case as shown, minus one star

Blade came fairly sharp out of the box. Pocket clip pins are already getting loose. Doesn’t have the heft I had hoped for. Decent knife overall. Good value for the money.

Super sharp, opens smoothly and looks great!! Nice weight to it and yet it's not too big. You can definitely tell it's made to last. Excellent buy for the money !!

One nice and sharp knife!
