FH41S-GY

I don't know how they do it - the nice smooth attractive grey/blue G-10 scales feel good in the hand, the knife is very light but solid feeling, the blade stays closed until you want it to open, and then with just the right amount of pressure on the flipper tab it breaks loose and snaps open. I have a $200 Benchmade 200 "Ball" Axis-flipper that doesn't snap open this well, although my Benchmade Tengu Flipper is nicer. The liner lock is easy to operate to unlock the blade and close it, with little resistance to closing it. Therefore, it could close on your finger by gravity if you hold it wrong while depressing the liner lock, but the flipper tab hits your thumbnail as it closes and stops the blade before it can cut you. It's small enough to be legal in most places, but not too small that you don't feel like it's not enough knife. The edge is sharp and even, and the D2 steel doesn't bend too easily. Remember to take care of the blade (clean and maybe oil depending on the climate), as D2 steel can still rust if left dirty or wet for a while - the advantage is that it is harder than 440C stainless (CTS-XHP would have been nice which is like a stainless D2). So far I have not had a D2 blade rust n Colorado, and I don't oil them. The knife comes with a small microfiber bag, similar to the ones that Benchmade includes with their knives, in case you want to store it, carry it in a pocket without using the clip, or keep it from getting scratched up by rubbing against things. The bag can also be used to wipe the blade or knife clean. This knife, at this price point, would make a great every day carry (EDC), and a great gift to those just getting into knives. When I don't want to carry my heavy Hinderer, Chris Reeve, or Zero Tolerance knife, or I don't want to hurt their blades doing something I shouldn't, I can have this along with me to take the abuse and not worry about it because I bought three :-D

This is an elegant, well made knife. The 3” D2 steel blade is hard and takes a razor sharp edge which it holds very well. The blade on mine is perfectly centered with a butter smooth action. The detent is perfect and the blade really rockets out when you press the flipper tab. The sculpted G10 handle scales are ergonomic and very attractive. All this for an unbelievably low price. Well done, Ganzo! Two years later and this is still my EDC knife. The blade is still perfectly centered, no play, the bearings are smooth, and the blade rockets out every time. Edge retention is excellent and the blade will quickly strop back to hair shaving sharp. This knife has better edge retention than my QSP Penguin and has replaced the Penguin as my EDC.

I needed a small knife to carry for the office. This is a subtle knife, which sits low in your pocket due to position of the ambi carry clip. The G10 handle offers good grip. No blade stud, but it flips open easy and feels solid (no play in blade). D2 blade keeps sharp and free of corrosion. Great knife at twice the price!

Pros: -Knife came fairly sharp out of the box -Easy to adjust Torx screws -Very good blade lockup -Very good blade jimping -No blade play at all -Jimping on the top of the rear flipper tab makes it almost impossible for your finger to slide off when deploying the blade -Berings are high quality and the blade deploys almost as fast as an assisted knife would, without the additional legality issues -Branding is subtle and quite nice looking in my opinion (Having the knife name and blade steel etched in is quite useful in my opinion) -Handles are honestly really good looking (I got mine in blue and I love how the light catches the ridges of the handles,) It has sort of a carbon fiber texture to it - Well placed and appropriately sized lanyard hole -Pocket clip came a little tight for my taste but was very easy to bend out -When closed knife has a unique silhouette - Confidence inspiring blade detent, it does not feel like it could ever accidentally open - The small version is perfect for edc and at least in my opinion is quite non threatening making it perfect for use as a public work knife -Action is very fun to play with:) Cons: - Blade scratches quite easily, Mine has tons of scratches from the plastic angle guide on my sharpener -When closed the blade comes quite close to the exposed rear of the handle. This could be a hazard of you are pressing into the back of the knife -Interior linings are quite the dust/lint magnet (this is standard in my experience but it seems particularly bad here) ---D2 STEEL The D2 in this knife is decently soft but still dosent quite take an edge like a cheaper steel would. I really wish Ganzo would offer this pattern of knife in 440 for people like me that never really need the benefits of D2 and only feel the downsides. This knife has excellent blade geometry and grind but it's just a shame that it is only offered in D2. This is the only reason to me that I am rating It a 4/5 Overall The Ganzo FH41S is a beautifully simple looking knife that is almost perfect for urban edc tasks. I would happily recommend this knife for anyone but be warned that due to the D2 steel, a Diamond stone is all but required in order to maintain the blade edge.

The FH41S is one of the best buget knives out there . Perfect size for EDC. The G10 has a great look, feel & texture. The knife is very comfortable in the hand & the pocket clip will allow it to slide in & out of the pocket easily. Great "no fail" action opening & drop shutty right out of the box with no oil or adjustments needed. The blade came incredibly sharp & had a nice clean flat gride. Access to the lock-bar is terrific, making the knife a joy to close with the buttery smooth action. Hard to believe these things come in under $25. Well worth the price. Go ahead & buy 2....you won't regret it,

Picked this knife up to add to my orange edc collection. Definitely a quality knife. Fit and finish is good. The micarta feels nice with a little grip to it. The detent is strong and the action was a little tight out of the box. After a couple days of use it has broke in nicely and now has a smooth action. Out of the box. The blade came sharp and has been holding an edge well over serveral days of regular use. The pocket clip is deep carry and slides easily in and out of the pocket. Over all this is a great edc knife. Definitely worth checking out!

This guy is near perfect. Perfect size for my everyday carry needs. It doesn't take much before a knife is too big and bulky and heavy in the pocket. Not this. Nicely balanced and with enough blade to do most every day tasks, but not so much that size becomes an issue. Size wise, this fits sits in between my gentleman's carry pieces and my weekend heavy duty stuff. Great all around functional piece. The centering is near perfect, and the deployment is smooth as silk. The knife is solid in the hand, and the design has a conservative and sleek elegance to it. I got green, because I don't have that color. I thought it would look to "outdoorsy" and not fit the elegance of the knife, but the darker shade of green really works well with this design. You can see the Chinese have learned the craft by making knives for US companies. This has all of that quality without the US mark up. And it was delivered in a few days from the US.

Nice knife. Well made.

Sehr, sehr scharf!!!!!! Mein täglicher Begleiter.

Świetna, damska wersja starszego braciszka. Za te pieniądze jakość jest fantastyczna.

No soy de hacer reseñas sobre productos. Pero esta pieza lo merece. Lo primero que sorprende es su ligereza. Apenas notas que la tienes en la mano o en el bolsillo. La textura de las cachas de G10, no son muy rugosas, pero lo suficiente para ofrecer un buen grip. La apertura y el cierre son de otro mundo. No se entiende que algo "tan económico" tenga estas calidades. Corta como un demonio, el filo de fábrica es excepcional. Si están pensando en marcas más caras, yo probaría esta Ganzo sin duda, no te va a dejar indiferente. Realmente es una navaja de buena calidad en todos los aspectos. Pequeña, elegante, liviana, buen acero, buenos materiales, buena construcción general. Simplemente no defrauda, y por este precio es un verdadero regalo. Aquello de marca china=mala calidad es algo que con Gazo/Firebird quedó lejos, no es mi primera navaja de esta marca, y debo decir, que todas me han dejado impresionado, tanto las de acero 440 como las de acero D2. Este modelo, además, ya no trae la típica fundita, trae una gamuza gris preciosa.

Well made knife.

Perfect voor dagelijks gebruik
