NedFoss FA49

I purchased this knife to keep in my vehicle, not as a collector’s item, but as something reliable to have on hand when life happens. Whether it’s opening packages, cutting cord, or having the right tool in an emergency, this multitool delivers beautifully. The moment I held it, I liked it even more than I expected. It feels right in the hand — substantial but not heavy, with a size that’s easy to manage. I'm not someone with particularly strong hands, but I was able to open and close it safely and confidently. That’s rare. It’s 8 inches open, half that when folded. The back clip makes it easy to secure, and it even includes a hole for a lanyard or key ring (though be mindful — that hole is just beneath the glass breaker, so you’ll want to keep that area clear for emergencies). And yes — it includes a seatbelt cutter, a glass breaker, and even a bottle opener. Practical, well-designed, and sturdier than many knives twice the price. The action is smooth, and the finish is handsome without trying too hard. This is a field knife. One that belongs in a glove compartment, a backpack, or a toolbox. Quietly excellent — just the way I like my gear. Highly recommended.

For the price I was very surprised how well built they are and they are sharp.! I've seen the YouTube videos Where they totally abuse these knives and they don't hold up. They use them in ways that normal people will never ever use a knife. Ignore those videos. These are great, well-designed and reliable Knives. Thats why I bought several of them.

First of all, this is my favorite EDC knife. I haven't found a spring-assisted pocketknife that I like as much as this one. Overall has a sleek design, fairly sturdy, and the blade is sharp on arrival and stays that way for a good amount of time. It might even be too good of a knife though...this will be my 3rd time buying this knife. My friends keep "playfully" stealing it, or "borrowing" it and then apologize for having "lost" it! The fact this has happened with multiple friends hints that it may be more than an accident.... Pros: - Looks pretty good! - Bottle opener adds to the aesthetic of the knife and isn't super obvious. - Good spring mechanism. - Not too heavy compared with other Nedfoss knives. - Sharp out of the box. Stays sharp for a while. Relatively easy to sharpen. - No saw wasting the space on the blade. Cons: - Doesn't have the hex cutouts for use as a screwdriver (BUT I've used the other Nedfoss knives that have the attachment and it doesn't really work super well and is awkward to handle). - May still be too heavy for some. - Bottle opener will use the blade for leverage when opening bottles, which may dull it faster. - As with any spring assisted knife, the screws will loosen with time, so I recommend buying a phone repair kit of some sort as they usually use the same time of screwdriver.

Not a crazy "razor sharp" blade but enough that it gets the job done. I like how it snaps open all the way if you just push down on the part in the back. Another knife I had you would have to flick your wrist hard to open one-handed. The only problem I noticed was if you opened the blade manually, sometimes the lock bar doesn't engage so the blade can fold back in. Pushing up more on the bottle opener part usually fixes it though. This isn't a problem if you open it the way it's supposed to be though. Unfortunately, I don't often have the opportunity or need to use bottle openers, let alone window smashers and seatbelt cutters. So until then, I'll just have to trust they work well enough. I cut a little notch in an old t-shirt with the seatbelt cutter, and it worked. I will say that the bottle opener is adjacent to the end of the blade, which is about as sharp as the point of the blade, so it might stab a hole in the bottlecap. Not really a problem, unless you're a bottlecap collector or something. P.S. I have another seatbelt cutter right next to me on one of those TikTok shop pocket survival things with the flashlight, lighter, screwdriver, whistle, etc inside. Out of morbid curiosity, I tried it on my shirt to compare...and it TORE through it like butter.... accidentally cut an inch deep. So needless to say, the seatbelt cutter on this knife is not nearly as sharp as other ones out there. So it'll probably require much more effort, which you might not want in a life-or-death situation. So I wouldn't get it specifically for that feature.

Great knife, has all the features I needed. I'd recommended this knife to anyone that needs a pocket knife. This knife is the perfect size and weight. When using the clip I don't even feel this knife on my pocket.

Solid EDC knife at a reasonable price. Very pleased with this. Top 3 reasons I like this EDC knife: 1: Good Quality/Solid Build 2: Great Price 3: The glass break is well designed. Its functional while not jutting out. I carry this every day and have yet to poke a hole in my pants or me. Highly Recomend

Very sharp, perfect pocket carry size, light weight yet very durable.

A knife with a lanyard or paracord pull should be conducive to the position it comes out of the pocket in the hand. Otherwise a great knife. Fast action, just not adjustable from the factory pocket grip to proper hand position when pulling.

Schönes qualitativ hochwertige Produkt. Super ist der Gürtelklipp. So kann man das Messer auch ohne Köcher befestigen. Nach feinem Nachschliff Super scharf.

Schärfe geht in Ordnung
