Budget Knives. E2 My EDC Folder.

Hello folks, this is the second episode of budget knives. This one we're going to be doing a Gonzo folder. This is the G7392P folder in orange G10. I've been using this knife as my EDC for about a month now. It slides out of my pocket nicely, has an axis lock and folds up nicely back in the pocket. It doesn't move around and I like the orange color. So I was always saying I like the orange scales I don't want to lose anything I do bring this to the woods in my pocket and I carry it every day the orange is not a subdued color it's I'm not trying to be tactical or anything by any means I want to find my knife I want it to be aware that I am wearing a knife as well I'm not trying to conceal this one bit so it's a Gonzo knife it's from Gearbest from China has an axis lock it has some jimping here which in all honesty I never hold mine who who holds their knife like this what are you going to do like this i'm making curls and stuff you're holding it here cutting paper open i don't know i i don't really have a use for jimping i know some people like them whatever it's a soft little jimping uh doesn't cut into your hand at all uh it gives your thumb a place to go if you are using your knife that way for some reason i don't know um we've got textured scales texture G10 i thought for a little bit maybe it'll be too much it's not it's pretty comfortable i like it i don't like this super pointy start to the blade it feels like it's going to stab me especially when i want to use my knife up here making curls because i do legitimately hold my knife like that um back up emmy back up emmy but that's no big deal i tried to find a use for it like making some tracker curls or puncturing something but i really haven't found a use for it maybe maybe as a can opener if you're in a pinch, but I really don't know. I do like the blade shape. It lends itself to a lot of uses. I actually broke the very tip off, but it wasn't in any kind of normal use. I was prying to break into my window in my house. It was like a super thick metal, and I broke the very, very, very tip off, but it was way, it was abuse. I shouldn't have been doing it. And for all the other intents and purposes, when I was doing that, I should have gouged it up here and stuff, and it's totally fine, the edge. So I'm really actually impressed with that. I don't care that the very, very, very tip broke off at all. So you can see now how I'm opening it. It's got these two thumb ramps, or whatever you wanna call them, screws, so that you can do it on either side ambidextrous. I normally just flick it up like that. You can also do the old flick out. And then for closing, it's super easy. This access lock makes it nice and easy. I've not had an access lock knife before, so I don't really know to compare it against higher quality ones, but I have heard that these ones are a bit sticky, hard to work but in all honesty i was just using one one thumb to get it and it works fine for me so maybe i'm not spoiled with with a nice knife already that's why i like it but it is totally fine in my opinion to close it i'm just releasing that axis lock flicking my wrist down it's closed it's nice and smooth i don't feel like i'm trying to too hard or anything i have no play back and forth like this and i have no play up and down which is good this is from the same place that you order from GearBest it's the same people that you're getting the SEMA knife from the first knife I did on the budget knives video and now I got a lot of comments saying that their knife still hasn't come in it's been two months they ordered that SEMA knife from GearBest it hasn't come in and I've also had some complaints about the sheaths not fitting right so keep this in mind I contacted GearBest because of this and they wanted to know the feedback on my my viewers who bought the knife and i told them i said a lot of them sorry about that a little phone call um i did talk to them and and and told them that there was problems with the sheaths and then there was also problems with uh people getting it in time or or having a ridiculous amount of time to wait for their knife so they said the reason that the knives have been taking a long time is because i put up that video and they got sold out right away regardless that is not the consumer's fault that is not something the consumer needs to worry about they need to let you know if there's going to be a delay in ordering this knife and I told them that so hopefully that will be changed also the sheath issue I don't think quality control is there because they're pumping them out in mass amounts so it might be something you just have to take a gamble on and that said maybe this knife if you get this knife it does have a little bit of play this way or the the lock doesn't work as good if it sticks something these are all things that you have to take into consideration before you decide you're going to buy something like this that said i do like this knife i do i wanted a folder that i didn't have to pay 100 bucks for um because i do use this knife inappropriately i i i try and um pry things that aren't like metal you know what i mean i open packages this knife is not a woods knife for me this knife is more of an everyday carry, I I'm literally doing everything with this knife, I'm beating it up and so I'm cool with it, I did pry into my window like I said and I broke the tip off, the very very very tip, doesn't affect it at all and I was mistreating this knife, I should not have been doing it, I'm totally cool with it, I like this knife and I think it's worth 15 bucks, it's on sale until uh June 30th for 15.99, normally it's 21.99 or something like that, 16 bucks, 22 bucks for this knife, you're laughing uh like like I said if you break it, you got another one, whatever something to think about, I like this knife um yeah if you're looking for it, I'll put the link in the description, thanks for watching guys, I'll see you again soon goodbye
