EF135 Fixed Blade Knife

I'm writing this review after having had this knife and used it for a month. A great value. It has a much better feel than I had anticipated at first glance. It's a heavy use knife, probably best suited for camp tasks, hard yard work, and as a possible personal defense backup. A modern aesthetic look as well. Sheath is very serviceable and holds the knife firmly. Mine arrived very sharp out of the box. I own knives 3 to 4 times this price point without adding much more value.

Love this knife. Very rugged build and very functionally sharp out of the box that retains a good edge at the factory set approximately 30-35 degree edge. Take it to 25 degrees for an even higher degree of sharpness and the knife is superb while still being exceptionally durable and high edge retention! I have a few efangrow knives and this is my favorite because of its blade design and weight make it good for chopping without being too overly cumbersome. In the realm of knives this would be considered a large knife, in the realm of bush crafting/ survival/ tactical knives I'd call it a medium size knife.

The knife fits nicely. Blade and handle has a good feel and weight to it. Very happy with this purchase. Fast shipping.

This knife came in as described. Sharp out of the box. Kinda rustic with the finish, and rough on the edges. Quality control (QC) isn't doing their job, as this knife is rough. I have purchase other knives from Eafengrow, and seems to be the normal thing from them. Not bad, for the price and is a good knife. I recommend. Is somewhat heavy for it size, but good for work around the house. The sheath is plastic feeling, but it catches the knife good in it.

The knife is well built and was easy to sharpen. It arrived very dull. Steel sharpened easily which should mean it won't hold an edge very well. Grip is comfortable if a bit small. I wear size large gloves and it is only just large enough. The sheath is well made. One issue with the sheeth is it is made to attach to belts 1 1/4" or smaller. It doesn't work for wider belts like gun belts or tool belts.

This knife is amazing at it’s price point, Good steel and excellent fit and finish with a really nice sheath. It’s solid! It’s a really great design. It came razor sharp. I highly recommend it you won’t be sorry!

Sharp like a knife should be. Heavy made, with good materials. At this point eafengrow is my favorite knife company. I've had knives since i was 5 yrs old, and a weak, dull knife is no better than a stick. I use mine like your supposed to use a knife, not as an axe or hatchet( i have an axe & hatchet for that, so i expect my knives to last a lifetime. Im not really into some of the new styles and I'd prefer a good leather sheath any day over the plastic or kydex but once again for quality and use you can't beat these knives (ef124 & ef135) I'd give it 6 stars if it had a leather sheath.Oh and about balance- i don't give a hoot...Actually id much prefer the blade be quite a bit heavier than the handle, that way the knife hangs better off the belt & is always in the right position, a leather sheath helps with this too.

Very hard to beat this knife for the price......even if it was $100 knife it would still be worth it. It came sharp as a razor and super excited about the finish and scales. Great weight.....Excellent Sheath and like everyone has said....it doesn't rattle in this Sheath.
