Firebird GANZO FH31 Pocket Folding Knife Wharncliffe D2 Steel Blade G10 Anti-Slip Handle with Clip Camping Hunting Fishing Folder Outdoor EDC Knife (Black)

Ganzo delivers on quality at a very attractive price. Bearings make for smooth blade flip. I’m a fan of the Wharncliffe blade style; it holds an edge and is easy to sharpen. Small complaint is the edge was a bit dull out of the box. Easy to fix.

Another great one from Ganzo. Looks great in carbon fiber. Ganzo is the King of value knives!

Overall, very nice for the price. I have several Ganzo and Firebird knives, and I think even though the Firbird brand is made by Ganzo, the Firebirds are just slightly cheaper quality. The first things I noticed with this knife was that the machined-edges on the scales and the back of the blade did not have an edge-break or radius. They were machined to sharp corners. This is not a big deal because I can smooth them out with Scotch-brite myself, but it was noticeable that the components had not been hand-finished very thoroughly. The other thing was that the blade edge was very smooth and reasonably sharp, but it could be sharper. It did not shave my arm-hair and the paper test was just "ok" in my opinion. The action flips open smoothly and the bearings don't wiggle or feel loose. The fitment of all the parts is pretty nice. All in all, quite a nice little knife for the value. I'm very happy with it.

When I ordered this knife, I read through reviews that said they had Rockwell tested the blade and verified it was the hardness of D2 steel, which is what it's advertised as and what stamped on the blade. For the price point, that already makes this a deal. The other features I was looking for were the cleaver style of blade, assisted open, and the location of the pocket clip. I had no huge expectations above and beyond that. This far exceeded my expectations. The assisted open is very smooth, and it locks firmly in place with no wobble horizontally. It is also SUPER sharp. Out of the box, this was sharp enough to shave my arm and cut through the Amazon package it came in with no more than the weight of the blade itself. There was no resistance at all. Next, I cut through coconut fiber mat with very little resistance by puncturing the inside of the mat. From the edge, there was a little more resistance, but that's really a testament to how sharp this is. I can't speak on the subject of edge retention yet, but color me impressed so far. I expected to hold an edge fairly well just being that it's made from D2 steel. The card that came with it advertised it as laser sharpened, which I don't remember being a selling point when I was going through the product information, but something worth noting

Fantastic knife for the money! It lacks jimping on the spine of the blade but I added it myself. It's a little heavy for its size due to the blade thickness and having solid (non-skeletonized) liners, it's a medium-sized heavy-duty knife. It's an attractive (aesthetically pleasing) knife with great fit and finish, doesn't look cheap at all. The action is smooth and lockup is tight. Ganzo Firebird knives are a great value. They're quality knives that are inexpensive enough to not worry about using, or losing. They would make great inexpensive gifts, why give a crappy gift when you can give a nice knife for around $25?

Pros: The knife seems well made. The blade is material is decent and comes pretty sharp. It comes with a deep pocket clip that is ambidextrous. Overall, it looks and feels good with some minor issues. Cons: The knife I received did not have the blue anodized pin as shown in the pictures. I know that is a small detail, but it was something liked about the knife so it's disappointing. The action is pretty stiff, and the blade won't open all the way to a locking position without using some wrist action. If it had a thumb stud to help open it all the way, it wouldn't matter as much but this knife does not have one. The carbon fiber looks great but be aware that it's really smooth and offers zero grip. I haven't decided if I'm going to return it because I'm lazy and I don't hate the knife...

I first came to appreciate the practicality of this relatively straight cutting edge style blade from carrying the slightly smaller and sleeker Ganzo FH51 (now hard to find). Like that model, this knife has the feel of a quality tool — built to exacting tolerances, with a low friction bearing and finger flick opening ergonomics. No pretensions, no sharp edges. Just the right design that’s easy on your pocket — and your pocketbook.

I have a number of Ganzo knives and for the most part, really like them and this knife is no exception. The finish is wonderful and the blade is perfectly centered. The D2 steel is nice and holds a good edge. It's not the most practical blade shape, in my opinion, so it's not likely I'll carry this every day, but it'll definitely go into the rotation. The flipper action is just "ok' and I have to say, I expected better. It flips all the way open and locks most of the time, but requires a bit more effort than it should. It doesn't feel like it's on bearings, that's for sure. That said, it feels really good in the hand when using it. One thing I really love about this knife though is how thin it is compared to all the other Ganzo knives I have. It practically disappears in the pocket, which is not common for Ganzos. I also like the deep carry clip. All in all, it's not my favorite, but I'm a fan and am glad I purchased it.

Gewohnt schnelle Lieferung und voller Vorfreude ausgepackt: Meine Fresse, was ein geiles Teil. Sauscharf und ungewohnte, aber faszinierende Klingenform, bin gespannt wie diese sich im Alltag gibt. Verarbeitung: Da klappert und wackelt nichts, die Griffschalen sind sauber verarbeitet und liegen gut in der Hand. Insgesamt ein echt robustes und sensationelles Design, finde ich. Flipper etwas schwergängig, aber das gibt sich mit Nutzung und/oder etwas Öl. Ist mein erstes Ganzo und ganz ehrlich: Ich sehe mit diesem Messer als Beispiel keinen Grund z.B. Spyderco und anderen teuren Herstellern soviel Geld in den Rachen zu werfen wenn Hersteller wie Ganzo das deutlich günstiger hinkriegen. Für mich als Normalnutzer, der nicht stirbt wenn das Messer mal stumpf wird, eine ganz klare Kaufempfehlung und ich werde mir sicherlich weitere Messer von Ganzo ansehen und vermutlich auch kaufen. Meiner Meinung nach ein spannender Konkurrent zu Spyderco und co.

Mag ich sehr

Top Preis/Leistung!

Genau was ich mir vorgestellt habe
