Description
The Firebird FH71 D2 Folding Knife is designed for everyday carry and outdoor tasks, featuring a D2 steel blade and a durable G10 or carbon fiber handle. Its razor-sharp blade excels at slicing through materials during camping or hunting. The ergonomic design ensures a secure grip, making it suitable for hunters, campers, and EDC enthusiasts.
Sharp and Durable Blade Performance
The Firebird FH71 is equipped with a D2 stainless steel blade, known for its high hardness (around 60 HRC), excellent edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The drop-point blade measures 87mm in length and 3.5mm in thickness, with a plain edge and satin finish, ideal for precise cutting tasks like preparing food or slicing rope. The blade deploys smoothly via a flipper mechanism with ball bearings, though some users note the action can be stiff initially. Others report the blade arrives razor-sharp, with minor centering issues noted.
Ergonomic and Durable Design
The handle is made of either G10 fiberglass or carbon fiber, offering durability, corrosion resistance, and a lightweight feel. Available in black, green, gray, brown, and carbon fiber finishes, the handle includes characteristic grooves for enhanced grip. It measures 199mm overall, with a closed length of 112mm, and weighs 98g. The handle design includes a deep-carry pocket clip and a lanyard hole, though some users mention the clip’s placement leaves a gap if removed. The Axis lock ensures secure blade retention, but some users report difficulty with the liner lock release.
Versatile for EDC and Outdoor Use
The Firebird FH71 D2 Folding Knife is designed for both urban and outdoor environments, praised for its versatility. Users appreciate its utility for everyday tasks, with the blade’s D2 steel and ergonomic handle making it suitable for hunting, fishing, or tourism. However, some users note issues like the blade’s thumb hole being more aesthetic than functional. It’s ideal for EDC, camping, or hunting, providing a practical, high-quality tool for various scenarios.
