HUAAO Men's Pocket Folding Knives, D2 Flat Blade, Carbon Fiber Handle, Thumb Stud, Manual Open, with Deep Carry Pocket Clip (Carbon Fiber)

super sweet with probably real d2 blade with a decent heat treat. i cut some knarly stuff and performance is there with all the decent d2 in my fleet. pretty sure it’s running on ball bearings. blade coating is vibrant color. handle scales are nice stiff good looking carbon fiber. came crazy sharp. very thin blade like a bugout but much bigger full size blade length and width. very pointy pokey tip. zero complaints.

I bought this on a whim, but it's kind of my favorite EDC. The steel may or may not be real D2, but it sharpens and holds an edge reasonably well. Rides comfortably in my pocket (very important to me) and does what I need it to do. This knife is NOT a cold steel or benchmade, but it's less than 30 bucks and is very serviceable. Plus, with the orange paint it looks like a plastic toy and so I don't worry about freaking out my coworkers if I get it out to open a box at work.

Beautiful knife, lightweight, sharp, flips open and closed smooth as glass. Thin slicey blade. Handle G10 nicely textured and fits the hand well. Designed by Benchmade but well executed by Huaao. Blade centered, pocket clip small but mighty. I would dare say the craftsmanship on this and other Huaaos l have purchased is at least as good if not better than Benchmades in my possession. Excellent addition to my collection!

Worth the money. I would have gave 5 stars but I ordered the green handled one but received the black handled.

I saw this while looking for a decent, not so spendy, EDC knife. I liked this one because it looks different and really stands out among my other carries. I also figured if it wasn’t so good I wasn’t out big dollars.So I pulled the trigger. The item showed up on time and in good condition. I couldn’t wait to open this up and tore into the box. After taking it out and giving a good once over I pulled back on the axis lock and almost dropped the knife. The axis lock hasn’t been deburred and it bit me. No broken skin but after opening and closing a few times my finger tips wanted nothing to do with it. My first thought…that kinda sucks.I also noticed that the orange piece that runs along the heal of the knife, or spine, is actually 3D printed plastic not aluminum. My second thought…that kinda sucks.I took a grinder bit from my Dremel and hand filed the rough, sharp edges of the axis lock, it helped but bummed me out that a brand new knife now looks 20 years old, at least there. Once that got a little more comfortable I oiled it up and ran the action of the blade back and forth to break it in. After 30 minutes it wouldn’t loosen, I grabbed a wrench and tried to loosen up the pivot nut, but I think they used red locktite or stripped the screw, it wont budge. So the action is stiff and draggy. Again I thought...this kinda sucks.At this point I can only imagine the blade is probably not D2 material. I’m also assuming the orange blade isn’t a Cerakote or alike coating, it’s probably just paint.So at this point I’m not impressed with the Huaao knife. Had other knives of theirs on the list but after this I wont go back. I’d like to say you get what you pay for but I’ve got other knives in the same price range that work great, hold an edge, and are a delight to fiddle with. This is not one of them, as much as I’d like to love it I can't. I would give this a solid 1 out of 10, cause it sucks.

This knife turns out to be a replica of a Benchmade model, disappointing it's ripping off their sales. It's a very lightweight design. After some use the rather thick amount of blade coating began to come off at the lock-bar interface. The thickness if the coating was enough that the knife now moven when locked open. This severely destroyed my confidence in the knife's lock safety so I won't be using mine anymore even with the good blade shape and nice carbon fiber handles.

Great every day carry. The D2 tool steel blade maintains its edge. I wish it had a serrated edge and finger tip blade deployment. I’d pay twice as much to. The OD Green and Blaze orange color scheme are a natural. Definitely worth recommend to my friends.John

Knife was much better than I anticipated.
