Ganzo G720-BK Tactical Folding Knife Multi Tool Window Breaker 440C Blade Black G10 Handle w/ Paper Box & Draw String Bag G720

Fantastic knife!! this is based on then lionsteel sr1 which I also own, in many this is just as good and in some ways better. It retains the same comfortable design as the sr1, the axis lock is way more convenient to close with one hand, certainly the 21$ price is more attractive, the 440c steel holds up well and is much easier to maintain and sharpen than the d2 blade on the sr1, The biggest drawback is the slightly heavier weight at 200 grams, vs the ~ 150 grams of the sr1. I don’t find this bulky and the g10 scales are more than adequate, this is a favorite for EDC without the worries of using or loosing a piece of art. Nicely finished without feeling cheap, and true to the original SR1 design in many ways!

I nearly lost a valuable, priceless to me, knife that was presented to me upon retirement 10 years ago. I carried it everytime I left my home, and thought I'd never lose it, but nearly did, at a restaurant. Fortunately, the waitress spotted it on the floor, and retrieved it. It's now stored safely at home. I searched for the best value-for-money EDC knife to replace it, and at a budget price (retirement budget), and decided on the Ganzo G720-BK. The Ganzo has most of the same attributes of the retirement knife: G-10 handle (I love the texture), Axis-lock, thick blade, durable steel (440C is a favorite), and easy operation. Fit and finish were better than expected, as good as my $300 knife it replaces. I can't see much difference between the two, honestly. Good knife!

I have a number of knives (spydercos, etc); something of a knife problem, like many of the reviewers on this thread reviewing this knife. This is my favorite, and my EDC. Specifically, I enjoy using it more than a spyderco Manix which used to be my EDC, and als more than other Ganzos I have (e.g. the G7412, and G7392). Pros: its really solid, and aesthetically it appeals to me--I grin when using it. It IS big and heavy, which I find satisfying. Another HUGE plus is the deep-carry pocket clip, so that when it is in my pocket, it doesnt stick out, and is not obtrusive. What's more, because it is clipped on the pocket edge and not sitting at the bottom of the pocket, I dont feel it when walking, even though it is heavy/big. If I had it sitting at the bottom of my pocket, it would indeed be too big/heavy. So, I find it very comfortable, probably why it is my sole EDC knife--whenever I go to one of my others, I remember that their clip ends up having the knife sticking out of the pocket a bit, which makes me uncomfortable as others sometimes react. I don't know if it is indeed 440C or not, but it takes a very nice edge, and holds it reasonably. A few passes on the sypderco sharpmaker get it back to shaving sharp. I find the lockup great. Quite solid. I've never had it fail (have been using knife everyday for ~ 2 months). Finish is good; blade is well centered. The handle G10 is grippy and comfortable. I've beaten on the knife (hacking through vines, small tree trunks, etc. in the garden); things that I would never consider doing with a more expensive knife. The weight of the knife makes such endeavors very satisfying, and it has held up well to the abuse. I bought a second as a back up, in case I finally do destroy it, though no evidence of problems so far. The knife is a steal at this price. Cons: It is heavy, if that bothers you. It is a copy of a lionsteel knife costing more, so there is potentially a moral issue there, though I would never have purchased a $180 lionsteel, so that doesnt bother me much. The lock is a bit stiff when originally purchased. Put a bit of teflon-type lubricant into the blade pivot, and things loosen up a lot. After a bit of use, its great. The 'stiff lock' issue isnt really a big deal, only an obstacle to playing with the knife (i.e. using a flick to open blade in conjunction with Axis lock; opening the blade using the thumb studs is easy even out of the box). The texture of the G10 handle does make it slower to get out of a tight pocket. Makes sure you wont lose it, but could be bad if you're focused on self defense. Overall, this is likely a lousy self-defense blade--it is too wide, and not 'pointy' enough. So, that might be an issue for some. Con

So first this item. This writer has been purchasing high end name brand production knives – as well as a few custom order jobs now and then – longer than most of you little commie pinko socialist bed wetters have been alive. (Just kidding. Most of you are not bed wetters. Yet.) And I’ve lost and misplaced (or had confiscated) more $100 to $150 pocket knives than most of you miscreants will ever buy. So there’s my street cred for what I am about to say. Regarding this Orange Handled Ganzo G720 Folding Knife which I done bought for $21.45 and free shipping with Amazon Prime: if this bad boy is representative of what’s coming off the production line every day, then I gotta say I’m impressed. It has to rank up there in the Top 5 of the best folding knives you can buy for $27 bucks. Made with good materials not junk and with the blade being a non-fancy but very serviceable stainless steel (takes a decent edge) that will no doubt outlive me, this big brawny knife feels good in the hand, opens easy, cuts real good and locks up tight. No play in that blade when open. Also, the axis lock used on this knife is pretty dang good for a knife at this price point. The grippy ribs on the handles are a good touch. Gives the holder a firm grip, even when wet I’ll wager. As an outdoor knife this thing will do just about anything you want it to and it’s made well enough so that - when the day comes ya’ll cast off yer mortal coil and you end up deader than dead (goin’ off to meet Jesus) - you’ll be able to pass the knife down to your kids who’ll then be able to pass it down to their kids. Not bad for $27 bucks. I’ve paid more money in the past for knives that weren’t this good. (Which also proves I ain’t the brightest bulb on any string.) Gotta hand it to the factory folks in China. They have seriously upped their game in recent years in terms of putting out quality product when it comes to blades. So hell yeah it’s a keeper. Bubba say buy two. One fer you and one fer sister Sue. Over and out scout.

This is a good quality large folding knife. It's probably too large for EDC, but for camping, it is a worthy replacement for a fixed blade and much more convenient for me. The grip is large and solid and the ribbing looks great. The blade is sufficiently strong. They claim it is 440C which is a very good steel. I haven't used it enough to verify how it actually performs. But for use tending to the heavy side, this is an excellent strong knife at a great price.

People that dismiss Chinese products as crap are, simply put, missing out and have delusions of grandeur. As previous posters have mentioned, the people that would dismiss this knife because it was made in China, for sure own plenty of Chinese made products but they're not knives. They're their shoes, TVs, phones or basically put probably over 50% of their electronics. To put my experience in perspective, I've been carrying knives for 30+ years, use them daily and have a fair collection as you can imagine. Yep, my collection includes the usual "classics" from Spyderco, Kershaw, CRKT and Benchmade but I never settle and keep buying more. I do not discriminate by price, make or country of origin. I try not to buy crap, sometimes I do but this time but I didn't this time. So with that said, on to the knife. $15 is what this cost me and I couldn't be more pleased. One thing about this knife that is instantly noticeable is that it's heavy. Like really heavy but not without good reason. No, the liners aren't milled but that's not it. No, american materials aren't lighter, that's not it either. What it is, is the huge chunk of 440c in place of a regular folders blade. This is by far the thickest blade I've seen on any folder of this size and it's fantastic. It fairly obvious once you pick it up and handle it, this thing can take a beating (there's plenty of online abuse reviews on it already to prove this). The scales on the knife are great. They provide excellent grip due to the relief and the fact the handle is really wide to hide the aforementioned behemoth blade. The gimping on the spine helps contribute to a solid grip too. The ramp where the gimping is could be a little more aggressive but it's really close to being spot on. As far as lockup goes there's zero movement and there wasn't when i got it. However, this is one thing I've learned about Ganzo's. They need tuned (fiddled / messed with). If you don't do it right you're probably going to get lateral movement. If you don't do it at all the axis lock springs are way too tight and deployment is going to be stiff. To do this, make sure you have a T6, T8 and blue locktite, then look up what to do online if you can't figure it out (really simple stuff). The clip. I like the clip itself, it's substantial, sturdy and deep carry. Right handed, point up is the way all my knives are configured and the G720 comes configured in that manner. However, you cannot change this due to the glass breaker and the need for some odd 4 pin tool that I don't own. So for me, it's not a big deal but I can see this being an issue for others. Before picking up a few (6) Ganzos lately - I'm fairly new to them. I had never had a knife in 440C and now I cannot think of a reason why more people don't use it for budget line knives. It takes and edge really well and seem to out last AUS8 and 8Cr13MoV as far as retention goes. Don't get me wrong, I haven't sat there with cardboard and "cut test" the thing, that's just not me but I've noticed over my cheaper domestics (some of the spydercos and kershaws are made in china though) it really does hold an edge longer. This really is a no brainier if you need a larger folder for heavy use - a great work or truck knife (esp with the glass breaker). It's not going to make a lot of people happy for EDC, it's a little large and heavy for that. Like playing with knives? Something about the weight of the blade make this knife really fun to flick open and let fall close. When not in use it lives on my desk at home and is used as a stress ball. Make sure you 'tune' the thing first though, otherwise it'll make you miserable and thumbs hurt. For $15 and 5 minutes of your time though, it's oh so satisfying.

These are amazing for the price. They're not as refined as the knives they're copying, and yes, they're blatant copies (in some instances) of higher end knives, but made with minor differences (they LOVE to put their version of the Benchmade axis lock on pretty much every knife they offer, with a few exceptions...even if the knife they're copying doesn't have it), but I have to give them credit where credit is due. First, the knives are NOT shoddy knock offs. They're made with 440C metal which has proven to be a solid "user" metal in the knives I've purchased from them (about 9, at this point in time), while also being easy to sharpen when they dull (And most of them have come "hair popping" sharp, straight out of the box", so far). Many people are dismissive of the Chinese 440C "mystery metal", but I've handed several of the ones I've bought out to friends and family to use, and report back on, and one has gone for a month of regular daily use and abuse, and is STILL shaving sharp, having had absolutely nothing done to touch the edge up. I explicitly requested that they not sharpen the knives, or go easy on them, so that I could determine the durability of them. So far, they've done quite well. Sometimes they're a little difficult to "break in", making one-handed opening awkward on some of them, but otherwise, they've been quite good. And, as far as being copies of higher end knives, each and every one that I've purchased so far has blatantly and boldly said "Ganzo" on the blade, leaving absolutely no chance that these could be considered "fakes" or be passed off as the "real thing". They aren't trying to make money off the blades they're copying, they're simply cherry picking the aspects people like about higher end knives and using them on their products. I'm not saying this is a fair practice, but at least they're being honest about what they're doing. And, quite frankly, I have no problems with it. If I spend $200+ on a knife, I'm absolutely not going to use it as I would a $20> knife. So this provides a useable alternative, while mimicking the attractive aspects of higher end knives. Many people will complain about buying these over American-made originals, but those companies have the option of making more affordable "user" models of their high-end​ flagships, as well, but they choose not to. Until they do, I will continue to purchase knives such as these, to use and abuse, without doing the same to my pocketbook.

Great knife. May be a little large for some but I love the bigger handle and solid feel. It fits my hand better than cheaper knives. The blade was nice and sharp out of the box. Quality steel sure makes a difference when you need to cut something. Rugged, feels and looks durable. My brothers and friends will be getting this knife for birthday and Christmas gifts!

Comprado para mi pareja para su gran colección de cuchillos y navajas. Él valora mucho la calidad y material de la hoja, las medidas, la manejabilidad, también el material con que está hecho el mango, la ergonomía.... Qué más decir, está encantado. Buena compra.

Excelente, robusta y contundente. No presenta holgura alguna, y la hoja está y se mantiene perfectamente centrada en su alojamiento al cerrar. El sistema de apertura/cierre (axis lock) va de lujo, permitiendo la apertura y cierre con una sola mano. Pesa sobre los 196 gramos, algo menos que las primeras del 2015 (205 g.) porque han esqueletizado (abierto agujeros) en los forros del mango para conseguir un mejor equilibrio, pero sigue manteniendo la contundencia. El acero 440c es buen acero, con un buen equilibrio entre la dureza del filo y la facilidad de afilado. En los últimos años han surgido nuevos aceros de última generación con una extraordinaria dureza que conservan el filo una cosa bárbara, pero que tienen asociada algunas pegas, como la contrapartida de que son realmente muy difíciles de afilar (y muy caros), y a no ser que se sea un experto en afilado y disponer de piedras diamante, la labor de afilar se puede convertir en una pesadilla. Esta navaja tiene una más que notable retención de filo (hay mogollón de videos en YouTube de las mil y una perrerías que le hacen de prueba y aguanta como una campeona lo que otras con más "pedigree" no hacen), pero la podemos afilar nosotros mismos sin problemas con un mínimo de conocimiento. La compré para regalo sabiendo que es ya una navaja mítica entre los aficionados al bushcraft, y volví a comprar otra para mí ... ;-). Me llegaron antes de lo esperado. Muy contento.

Absolut solides Messer. Gute Schärfe und sehr robust. 440C wurde lange sehr gehyped -ist ein guter Stahl. In der Preisklasse eher unüblich. Wie immer hat Ganzo mit den Lionsteel SR1 Nachbau mit Axislock gut geliefert. Ich kenne kein günstigeres Messer in dieser Dimension. Ideal für Einsteiger die großes Messer suchen.

Es una bestia parda.Las navajas chinas últimamente están mejorando muchísimo. Lástima que ,en ocasiones, están incrementando el precio, aunque esto venga acompañado de mayor calidad.

Mein Freund ist von diesem Messer mehr als nur begeistert! Es ist sein absolutes Lieblings Messer! Da er ein großer Survival Fan, und oft im Wald unterwegs ist besitzt er mehrere Messer (u.a Eins von Bear Grylls, und ein Opinel!) aber das Ganzo Messer ist sein absoluter Favorit! Es ist unglaublich scharf, der Griff ist rutschfest und es ist im Survival Bereich absolut zu gebrauchen! Für diesen günstigen Preis ist das Messer einfach der Hammer!!! Allerdings sollte man beim zuklappen extrem aufpassen (zumindestens wenn man, so wie ich nicht so viele Erfahrungen mit Klappmessern hat ;-) und/oder sich etwas dümmlich anstellt ) es klappt sehr zügig ein! Absolute Kaufempfehlung!!!! :-)
