It utilizes corrosion-resistant stainless steel and robust construction within a slimmer profile to minimize maintenance while prioritizing ease of carry and daily reliability. The ergonomics, designed by legendary knifemaker Liong Mah, focus on contoured handles and an index finger choil for precise control, ensuring a secure, comfortable grip that prevents slippage and hot spots under challenging field conditions. Highly accessible with a large thumb opening hole, the EFD is finished with a highly versatile, flat-ground drop point blade optimized for distributing stress evenly across demanding outdoor chores and everyday slicing tasks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlade Length: 3.50″\u003cbr\u003eCutting Edge: 3.15″\u003cbr\u003eClosed Length: 4.50″\u003cbr\u003eOverall Length: 8.00″\u003cbr\u003eBlade Material: Sandvik 14C28N Stainless Steel\u003cbr\u003eBlade Thickness: 0.125″\u003cbr\u003eBlade Style: Drop Point\u003cbr\u003eBlade Grind: Flat\u003cbr\u003eBlade Finish: Stonewash\u003cbr\u003eHandle Material: Black G10\u003cbr\u003eHandle Thickness: 0.458″\u003cbr\u003eLocking Mechanism: Liner Lock\u003cbr\u003ePivot Assembly: Bearings\u003cbr\u003ePocket Clip: Deep Carry Stainless Steel (Tip-Up, Right\/Left Carry)\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 3.92 oz.\u003cbr\u003eDesigner: Liong Mah\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 3.5-inch, drop-point blade is flat ground and is made from Swedish 14C28N Sandvik steel. It comes with either a Stonewashed or Blackwashed finish. 14C28N is a great steel. It’s stainless, and has excellent corrosion resistance and good edge retention, but is still easy to sharpen. It works great with a leather strop too to keep the edge tuned so that you don’t have to sharpen it as often too.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe EFD handles are G10 with a steel liner lock and pins, and are available in a variety of colors including basic black, OD green, orange, denim blue, purple and Natural Jade. The open frame design is easy to clean and allows crud and pocket debris to drop through and not get trapped in the frame in the first place. My EFD had OD green handles and a Stonewashed blade. A lanyard hole is also available at the butt of the knife, although it’s a little small for paracord.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe blade opens with a front flipper or by using the elongated opening slot on the blade. The blade opens smoothly and locks up tight by means of a liner lock mechanism. I’m not great with the front flipper style opener, but the elongated opening hole works great for me. Being that we’re seeing more and more front flippers, I probably should practice with it more, but since the EFD has options, I don’t really need to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EFD carries flat in the pocket with a reversible deep carry pocket clip. I’m pretty picky about pocket clips and have drawers full of knives that I like, but don’t carry much because of the clip and how they ride in the pocket. That was definitely not an issue with the EFD. It’s a good design that carries the knife discreetly and allows for an easy draw, while still giving proper retention so that you don’t lose the knife from your pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe factory edge on the EFD was excellent, and has held up to months of typical EDC work like opening boxes and packages, cutting cordage and tape, and even light food prep. It cleans up easily too. The G10 handles are wide and hand filling, and fit my mid sized hands well. They have a texture that provides for a solid grip, but isn’t overly aggressive and doesn’t cause hot spots during use. A finger choil on the blade lets you choke up for detail work or just gives you some extra space if you have really big hands.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe EFD is a comfortable knife to use, and carries easily with its flat profile, excellent pocket clip, and weight of only 3.92 ounces. The 3.5 inch drop point blade is a perfect size and style for EDC use. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liong Mah Design","offers":[{"title":"Black Wash \/ Right Hand","offer_id":42650148110421,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black Wash \/ Left Hand","offer_id":42650148143189,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stone Wash \/ Right Hand","offer_id":42650148175957,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Stone Wash \/ Left Hand","offer_id":42650148208725,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/6153\/1733\/files\/efd-od-green-stonewashed-232895.webp?v=1782479515","url":"https:\/\/www.betterairguns.com\/products\/efd-everyday-field-duty-drop-point-knife-solar-orange-copy","provider":"BetterAirguns.com -Beavers Dam Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
