NedFoss BEAST Pocket Knife for Men, 4 inch D2 Steel Blade Folding Knife with Clip, G10 Handle, Safety Liner Lock, Heavy Duty Tactical Knife for Hiking Camping Gifts for Men Women

I bought this knife as a cheap knock around knife while I'm traveling around the state.First off this thing is under engineered, and I love it. It reminds me of using grand dad's old buck knife. It has the ergonomics of a hockey stick, so it's great for those of us with large hands or who work with gloves, or both.It also weighs as much as a hockey stick. Youll definitely know you're carrying it and likely everyone around you will know it too.Out of the box, deployment was quick and the detent does a great job on keeping the blade closed.I had no problem with the locking mechanism, even giving it a few good test wacks to know what I'm working with. The blade stayed locked open, and no signs of play in it at all.Out of the box, mine was about as sharp as a butter knife. Sharpening went quicker than I thought it would, so I have some doubts on it's claim of D2 steel, but it did go slower than sharpening my Kershaws and SOGs which are softer steels, so my doubts may be completely unfounded.I generally wouldn't recommend a folder as a bush knife, but this would certainly do most anything you'd need during a weekend camping trip. Ithas enough meat on the blade it would even likely come back in one piece.Bottom line if you want a pocket knife that you dont want to baby, you don't mind everyone knowing it's in your pocket, and you don't want to shed too many tears if you drop it to the bottom of a lake, this is for you. Just make sure you can sharpen it first.Side note. It looks like you can drill a small hole in one of the scales and make the pocket clip ambidextrous. If I decide to do that I'll update this review with the results.Edit:Wow I've had this thing 2 years. After my trip it has lived in a drawer, on the floorboard of my truck, and on my porch where it could get good and rained on. It hasn't rusted.It has also seem a good bit of general use against rope, boxes bottle caps and the odd bit of plaster. The blade action has remained consistent and I have not had to adjust it aside from the occasional drop of oil to help work out the pocket lint.Shallowest sharpen I could reasonably maintain is around 26 degrees according to my budget angle gauge.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve had the Original Nedfoss beast on my save for later list and saw this smaller more edc version of it and I liked the handle design so I picked it up! It’s an excellent knife with great action that’s smooth and drop shut on release of the liner lock! Really like the g10 handle which is pretty cool looking and very comfortable in your hand! The D2 blade came razor sharp out of the box! It can be deployed with flipper or thumb stud but the detent is pretty strong on this knife so difficult to reverse flick! Has a reversible pocket clip and weighs about 3.7 ounces so a good edc knife! I still would like to pick up the original sometime, I tend to like bigger pocket knives! I have the Nedfoss Ratel also which is also an awesome knife! Thumbs up!

I have been collecting knives for more than 30 years and I've even made a couple of my own fixed blades. I've seen plastic handled cheap all the way up to high quality and high price. My first impression of this knife is that it is very stout and well made for the money. The hard canvas case is a plus, but don't know if I will be using it for carry. I like the D2 steel blade, balance, thickness of the blade, blade design (just like a S.O.G. Fielder) and brass liners for ease of opening even without a spring. The blade comes sharpened with a factory grind, but if you want it razor sharp like I do, you'll want to sharpen it yourself. I bought it for a remote camping trip I will be going on for 5 days putting it through the paces. I will be using it for various camp chores as well as splitting (batoning) for campfire wood. I will update after I return to let y'all know how well it performed. I have high hopes and a backup just in case.UPDATE:Back from a great trip! This knife has exceeded my expectations. I cut ropes with it, carved and whittled roasting sticks, chopped limbs and split wood with it (batoning). The D2 blade stayed tight, remained sharp and cleaned up with no scratches on the blade, even after splitting wood. The scales and handle feel really good in my large hands and never felt like I was going to let loose of it. If you're doing extreme off grid backpacking or overlanding, I recommend always having a good solid fixed blade or a hatchet, but sometimes you need to travel as light as possible for longer backpacking trips. Either way, I'm confident this knife can handle almost all of your every day and camping needs. Really good knife for the price!

Large, hefty knife with a 4 inch blade! 🐊 "That's not a knife, mate. THIS is a knife!" There are a couple smaller versions by the same company, but my wife keeps reminding me that bigger is better.Good looking, well made flipper knife. Sturdy, very sharp, comes with a case (which I'll never use. It's a POCKET knife lol). The only slight negative for me is the handle looks like it's plastic.Overall it's a great knife at a great price and I recommend you purchase one for your EDC!

Buying budget knives can be a gamble. I have had good and bad ones. No matter. It's a hobby. Actually, one that never worked well for me was a name brand and over a hundred bucks. I gave it away.Most or my collection are mid size with assisted flippers. But lately my old hands and fingers don't work so well and I have been buying a few larger folders.This one is definitely a beast as named, Large, heavy and seems well built. It is not assisted but opens very well with a good flipper tab.No, I would not try to baton with it, {or any other folder) like I saw someone doing on Youtube..Love to harpoon shaped blade and heft of this 'beast'.

This knife is Amazing ! Very Very nice and Quality ! Comes with a great carrying case! Great Value for the money. Amazing look and feel ! Highly recommend!! The box that it came in is actually nice as well.
