NedFoss DA52 Pocket Knife for Men, 5'' Large Folding Knife with Safety Pin

I own HUNDREDS of folding knives...... From 5 to 500 dollar knives. I own knives with just about every steel ever offered for folding knives..... I carry at least 3 knives on me every day. Point is, I know pocket knives and I know steel, and I know quality vs lousy flea market/gas station knives.Pros:For the price you are getting a hair shaving sharp knife made with a big fat chunk of decent budget steel. 8cr13mov steel is pretty good if heat treated well......Which this knife CLEARLY is. I beat the hell out of it today and its still sharp where other knives with this steel would not beThe lock up is solid AF. This is a liner lock and it HAS NO blade play at all when in the open position. A very rare thing for even expensive liner lock knives. This also has the rarity of a liner lock that sits at 50% when open...... Super rare.It looks pretty nice and comes with a lock pin you can insert if you are planning on thumping on this thing.The blade is big.....I wish more knife companies would make knives with 4+ inch blade knives. I'm tired of all the teeny little sissy knives.Cons.It's heavy AF..... I didn't weight it but even for a large folding knife this is heavy. Not the end of the world but it def wants to pull your pants down.Even though the lock up is super solid, the liner lock itself is pretty thin. It shouldn't matter much because if you are going loony on the knife you have the lock pin, but still.The ergonomics aren't the best. It has a pretty square grip to it and the pocket clip is a definite hot spot when gripping the knife. The liner lock while being easy to actuate is so prominent that it makes the front finger groove pretty uncomfortable.Overall I can't complain enough to give it less than 5 stars with a price under 28 bucks. It's def worth more than that if you ask me. Especially how incredibly sharp it came from the factory.

My husband absolutely loves loves loves this knife. He uses it every single day at work to the point that he ended up accidentally losing one of the screws that held the one side of the wood handle on. He used loctite on the others so they wouldn't fall out. When I contacted customer service, they were extremely fast and immediately sent us out a replacement. Not only did they send a replacement they actually sent a full set of screws as a replacement. They did let us know that it would be a little bit slow because it would be coming direct from their factory overseas however all communication was extremely fast and direct. Will purchase from them again. Still a very beautiful knife. Hubby says easy to sharpen and the edge stays durable for quite a while. Much larger than you think it is so get a ruler lol.

NedFoss knives have always been good purchases for me. I've bought quite a few and all well used and still good as new.

Quality is descent, blade is sharp, finish is not bad. Bearing could be smoother

Big and heavy, but I really like it. It looks even better than the pictures on line. Well made.

Great knife. Sturdy sharp and large. Can carry in the pocket, but is fairly large. I bought i because I liked the look. Also bought the smaller version. Love em both.

What a letdown. The fit and finish is wonderful. But I thought the button on the back of the blade was just another type of flipper...Such is not the case. I have rather large hands, I take a XXL glove, but the detent is so strong that I cannot open the knife with one hand.I'll probably keep it, but I wouldn't buy it again. Not knowing what I know now.The above review is for the 3.5" model.Now for the 5". This one is better. At least I CAN open it with one hand, with some fiddling. The range of motion is too wide of an Arc, to be able to leave your hand in one place.After you get it part way open, you have to crawl up on the knife to get your hand in position to finish opening it. Both of these knives are a big letdown. Knowing what I know now, I would not buy either of them.If you just want a nice jacknife, you will be happy with either of them. But they're not what I expected.

Awesome knife, and extremely sharp. I don't have to touch this edge. Well done!
