A simple, solid everyday knife without unnecessary frills. The steel is quite decent, the scales are sturdy, and the mechanism works smoothly, although in my unit there's a slight 'creak'. Opening with the flipper is effortless.
Bestech Knives Lion Folding Knife - Black
Robust folding knife for EDC (Every Day Carry), featuring a Drop-Point blade profile. Ideal folder for daily use and outdoor missions.
Blade made of D2 steel, flat grind, finish
Forged from wear-resistant, high-carbon D2 tool steel, the blade is hardened to a remarkable 59-61 HRC. Featuring a flat grind, the blade showcases a combination of finishes: partially satinized for a semi-matte look, while the convex areas utilize the distinctive Stonewash method.
Flipper, ball bearing on the axis, Liner Lock, jimping
Deployment of the blade is initiated using a compact flipper, with ball bearings incorporated into the knife’s pivot to ensure a smoother opening action. A secure Liner Lock mechanism holds the blade firmly in place. For enhanced control during use, jimping has been added along the spine at the thumb rest area.
G10 scales with anti-slip texture and finger notch, Springy clip
Handle overlays crafted from G10 laminate, produced by compressing layers of fiberglass within epoxy resin. The anti-slip surface of the overlays and a finger groove provide a firm hold. Fitted with a spring steel clip, the knife also features a lanyard/cord hole at the handle’s end.

The folding knife is solid and sharp, holds its edge well and is comfortable in the hand. It has a strong lock and a handy grip, so it handles everyday cutting in the field, during a walk, or with minor household tasks very well.
-
Great knife made from excellent steel. Excellent grip and a robust blade. Everything fits perfectly, and the price is amazing. It is quite large and heavy, but that's how it's supposed to be and it doesn't bother me.
-
Simple, nice appearance, unfolds well, folds as quickly as with spring knives, the mechanism works perfectly. It arrived very well sharpened!
-
Very good quality knife. My favorite D2 steel. It holds sharpness well and is relatively easy to sharpen. The handle scales in the Holy WZ are just perfect. I recommend it!!!
-
After previously purchasing the Grampus model, I couldn't resist buying another knife from Bestech. The knife is as great as the previous one. D2 steel is my choice and I think it's the best. It fits well in the hand and has a very interesting and different look. Great for a collection and definitely not my last one. I recommend it.
-
Good workmanship and materials, it's hard to find a better knife in its price range. The steel stays sharp for a long time, and sharpening is trouble-free. Worth trying.
-
A knife worth its price. Made from proven materials that provide comfortable use. Mechanically, no complaints either. Lightweight and handy. Good EDC.
-
An interesting knife both in terms of design and materials used. The project aspires to be an EDC due to its versatility, compact size, and weight. The craftsmanship is at a high level. Everything fits well and is well-finished. A product worth recommending.
-
A simple, good knife without any unnecessary features. Smooth mechanism, good quality materials. Easy to sharpen, which will be a big help for those less experienced in sharpening. I recommend it.
-
The knife is amazing: the steel, execution, grip, scales, bearings – there is simply nothing to criticize. On top of that, it has excellent steel and an attractive price. I can recommend it without a moment's hesitation.
-
Great knife made from my favorite steel. Excellent grip and a robust blade. Everything is perfectly fitted, and the price is fantastic. It's quite large and heavy, but that's how it's supposed to be.
-
Big but not too heavy, sharp and with a great clicking action. The lack of a mark indicating its country of origin will please snobs.
