Folding Chef Knife 4.8" Sharp 440A Stainless Steel Blade G10 Handle Pocket Foldable Kitchen Knife Utility Knife for Outdoor Camping Cooking

Like the weight the steel and the look. It locks open solidly my only concern is it does not feel closed . Think a leather sheath will solve that.

I have read different comments with the regard to quality if this product. I wanted to share my initial evaluation with regard to the build quality of this folding chef's knife.I am retired but work in a commercial kitchen. I have own several chef knives and a few folding knives. This gives me a casual but hands-on level of experience. I use experience here, rather than "expertise".The quality control is quite decent. No obvious flaws were found, upon indpection.Spyderco makes their folding chef's knife, the Spyderco Spydiechef, which is a real nice knife. It has LC200N ultra rust resistant steel and titanium handles. You can buy it here on Amazon for $282.80. It has a 3.32" blade.Pointing out, that this might not be a Spydiechef, but it costs a lot less money, at $23.88.The handle is quality G10, with steel liners. It is an open back design with barrel spacers, which is my preferred type of construction for this purpose of a knife.It is not a super heavy duty knife. I have Cold Steel knives for that. It is perfect for a large kitchen oriented folding knife. You would use it in a manner that the photos suggest.It has a thin flat ground blade that is perfect for cutting vegetables or for trimming meats. Better suited for slicing not chopping food preparation.440A steel has a high stainless quality. All you have to do is to rinse it after using and keep it clean. I never have rust issues with any of my knives. 440A steel is easy to sharpen and keep a sharp edge. The edge is very sharp out of the box. I don't think it will be hard to maintain the sharp edge with a $40 diamond stone that I use.I have several folding pocket knives. All are acceptable for cutting up an apple. But none of them are actually well suited for actual food preparation like this knife is.Will update this review with use...

Sharp out of the box, easy to operate

Beautiful looking knife, well built and very sharp. I use it mostly for harvesting in my garden. I wish it had a clip or came with a carrying case.

This is a well made knife. Razor sharp. It's compact and has a good lock on the blade.

What could be better a good knife for a cheap price. Because the blade is relatively straight. It’s really easy to get real sharp. Great work knife.

Doesn't stay sharp for long.Tarnished easily.I expected a well balanced knife for food prep. In my opinion, it's not.The only good quality is it's a folding knife. I would not recommend it for a camp knife.

This is a heavy blade knife! SHARP!!!

This knife was described and priced as a quality item. The blade is good. The handle is badly made. The folding and closing mechanism is loose and does not lock in. Not a good overall product.
