UPDATE 12/30/2024 - DETAILEDNedFoss FA46 Folding KnifeConvenient to carry and use. Open frame makes is easy to clean and decontaminate. Is easy to put a good edge angle for a very sharp blade. However, because we are looking at an inexpensive knife, it does not keep a sharp blade for a long time under 'abusive" conditions. I would recommend this knife for a good overall knife.i carry it. And, because of the reasonable price, if I damage it, misplace or loose it I'm not going to stress over it. I should have given it 4 stars, as the mfg/seller never responded with fulfilling the free knife offer. Other than that it is a good all round knife, especially for the price. I can say I either own or have given away almost two dozen of these knives. The only complaints have ever been those below.I would recommend this knife. I don't know about the Glass Break or the Seat Belt Cutter. I do know that a Spring Punch will shatter a window; but this is due to the 'Point. I have these in every vehicle, and have 'pointed the tip' to make it more effective.As for "sharpness" keep a 20° edge on it and it will cut most any thing.Concerning the assisted spring opening. Most of these knives will not open fully when new. Add a little 'Vegetable Oil" if you plan on using it around food or sewing machine oil for non-food uses. Manually move the knife blade to full range several times without locking open or closed. You should then have no problem with the Assisted Opening function. Soak up any extra oil on knife or blade with a tissue or paper towel.NOTE: If you notice the blade develops a little wobble, add a little 'low strength' LockTite and use the proper size 'STAR' HEX driver to tighten the fasteners on both sides of the knife frame.Yes, there are better knives out there. For example, most of my kitchen knives have high quality German blades in them. But, I have this Ned Foss knives in each vehicle, Medical bags and travel kits/boxes, etc. I also, always, carry this knife on me with the 'clip'. This means the open frame design is prone to collecting dust. I use Q-Tips to keep it clean. NedFoss states it can be washed and air dried (I would use a hair dryer).An Assisted Opening knife is legal to carry in California. You'll need to check your own state.• Finally. Like any other knife, keep it sharp and clean. Remember, this is a knife ... not a Pry Bar or Axe. The blades are fairly hard. This means that is prone to breaking if misused. (It is listed as HIGH QUALITY BLADE: NedFoss FA46 folding knife is made of high quality 7Cr17 stainless steel, razor sharp and hardness up to 57HRC.) 57 is in the grouping of professional [55-57], reasonably good steel, maintains a good edge when used properly, somewhat brittle.PS' NEDFOSSes warranty is somewhat confusing. In the paragraph, one place says 2 years. A little further down, it says Lifetime. I've never used either or inquired.

Best knife, especially for the money. I will caution you though that it is the heaviest knife I’ve had of this size. I have had benchmade, Gerber, Schrade and many others. For the money, this is the best knife out of all of them.

Great product

Good knife, a little on the heavy side, longer than expected, but also works whenever I need it to…

Great bargain. Nice edge and finish. I love the weight , not light but not too heavy.

GREAT KNIFE AT GOOD PRICE- QUALITY BLADE AND CASE!

It is a very nice sharp knife. It is just a little heavier than I like

Had a favorite Stanley pocket knife for years. Nothing fancy just a solid every day cheap knife. Broke off the pocket clip. I've been buying and losing or giving away pocket knives for two years looking for a replacement. This one has the nice sturdy feel, is all metal, proper heavier weight, doesnt feel like a kids knife. The blade is long enough to be functional. Not a fan of the fish scale look, but can over look that for the cost. Feels right in my hand. Will it last...time will tell.
