Eafengrow EF905 Folding Knife

I've had this knife for a few month now and really have nothing negative to say about it. It comes with a stowashed blade and scales. The scales come in bare titanium with a gold anodized pocket clip and purple back spacer. As you already know this is a big knife. I mean really big. The blade flips out with authority as the detent is just right. It's not easy to gravity flip. The best method is 'light switch. The blade is so heavy that is easily drops shut in its caged bearing. When it drops closed it does so with a satisfying THUD. If you have high hands the ergonomics are excellent. I have xxl hands and this knife feels great. I have sharpened my knife to 2500 grit and it took an excellent edge and is razor sharp now. I havent tested the steel so can't confirm that it's D2. It was what I would call medium on sharpening difficulty. I can confirm 100% that the scales are titanium as I have anodized them on my knife, which leads me to my favorite thing about this knife. There is a lot of real estate on it and it is basically a big blank canvass for customizing. I refinished the scales on mine to a fine satin finish then anodized them. I also stripped the anodizing on the clip and back spacer and re anodized them to my liking. I've included some photos as it is now. I haven't decided what to do with the blade yet. Maybe I'll put a satin finish on it too, but the stonewashed finish kind of fits the knife so I might just leave it alone. All in all a really fun knife with addictive flipping action. Recommended.

Just got mine in today as promised......this thing is big and beautiful, very well made.....I have about 10 folder knives that I switch around EDC from month to month and a few are collectors knives. I cannot see a single flaw in this knife and the fit and finish is superior. For the money you cannot go wrong with this one. I do like the fact that there is not a single stamped, printed, or etched letter on this knife and personalizing it is an idea. Even tho' this is made in China, I can't see a flaw in it except that it's a little heavier than I usually carry, but I'll get used to it. Its very sharp right out of the box and the lock mechanism is very precise and its easy to open and close. If you order one, be prepared for the size and weight, do your homework before placing an order.

Look, I was flabbergasted at the fit and finish and materials for the price. I was walking around showing it to people alongside other ti lockbacks saying, the price! I know the steel is cheap but look at the rest of it. I was reasoning through it must be like, down time and extra materials at OEMs or something. And then... I had only used it lightly for paper and cardboard. I went on vacation, came back, opened the drawer, took it out and it wouldn't open and engage lock. The lock bar was stuck open. Couldn't see any object in there. Figured maybe it was lint or paper. I've never had a knife not open. I flipped it with some wrist and the heavy blade swung open and something popped out. Unfortunately it was the lock bar insert. The lock bar insert SPLIT in half. It is for sure steel, but it must have been poorly tempered. So now I can't see a way to contact Eafengrow and it's past the return date. I guess, when your insert breaks, if you can contact them somehow, all you need is a new insert and tiny driver head. But can you trust the insert isn't too hard that it breaks or too mild it wears in too quickly against the blade? It's really the sort of total failure I've never even considered possible until it happened. Other than now being completely useless/ dangerous it was a shockingly good knife for under $80. Lesson learned I guess.

Good knife for the price. Built well, and has taken a lot of abuse. There are better ones out there, but you will pay a lot more, this is a great value. Feels good in the hand, and I would buy another if I ever lose it.

Big, heavy, sharp, and well constructed. These guys are getting it right.

This is a very nicely made knife. It's on the big side so everyday carry can be a challenge with keys and cell phone occupying your pockets. Materials seem to be quality, not completely sure there was ever an issue with steel quality other than some guy claiming there was. Fame lock was extremely stiff and hard to lock up on the first day but after a few days of use it's getting to be where I prefer it to be. It comes sharp enough to get the job done and it seems to be holding up well. For the price, I would suggest that if you like big knives to pick this up.

This is a great big heavy knife. It is what I was looking for. I need something like this in the winter while wearing heavy clothes and gloves. The blade quality is what you would expect from this type of steel. It's a durable workable blade. The bearing pivot is very nice. It opens very easily. It locks very securely. It is heavy, really heavy for a knife. It dwarfs the other big heavy folders I have. It is going to be really hard to find a quality knife larger than this one.

Awesome knife! Great price too!
