A Spyderco knife with 440C blade that's cheaper than Spyderco or it's lower brand Byrd
I did not think I'd like a Spyderco style of folding knife until I got the Ganzo 759m. Most of my folding knives are flipper tab types and none were lock back types until the 759m. It won't spydie flick open, but I can still open it one-handed. I was hoping this would be my "let a buddy borrow it" or backup knife, but it quickly wound up in the front pocket instead. 440c isn't high-end steel, but it's good enough that it holds an edge better than AUS-8 and may be slightly better than 8cr13mov. It costs less than a comparable Byrd knife which uses 8cr13mov steel. It's a good, inexpensive, folding knife that's nothing special, but it does a good job. At it's price, it's not something I'd get mad at getting beat up or even lost.

Great Little Knife
I am not giving it a 5-star because the tip bent when I tried to stand it on its tip on a wood board. Maybe my fault but I did not think this knife was so fragile. Has kept its sharpness reasonably well Then again, I have not cut anything hard with it, mostly paper and soft fruits and such. I think at this price ($18), it is an ok buy. At a $12 or, it would be a much better buy. If you want a very light EDC knife, this is good enough. Also look at the OKC RAT 1 and RAT 2 folders. I have the RAT 1 and love it too. RAT 1 is much beefier and I only paid another $7 more ($25) for it.

I was amazed
When i ordered this i had no idea it would be so good. You cant beat the value. It had great snap and lock and no wobble. It came razor sharp. How sharp? It took hair off my arm. It nice size and super light.. If you looking for a every day carry knife think of getting this. It looks similar to some other knives i've seen online at fraction of cost. i don't know much about knife brands etc but this perfect for me. Very happy with purchase. Not familiar with other Ganzo knives. Ill see how it holds up and write another update Here couple photos. I tried to capture the edge for you

For the money it's a good knife.
An inexpensive blade for work. In the hand it feels just like a Byrd. It's exactly what I expected.

Phenomenal value
Really really happy with this one-- very nice ergonomics, perfect size for a city pocket knife, and RAZOR sharp from the factory. Couldn't be more pleased, and might get another. Equal or higher quality than the Spyderco Byrd line, from what I've seen.

May be better than the big name brand!
It’s scary how good this knife is for the money compared to the name brand. This is not a cheap imitation of the way more expensive brand name knife, this is as good as or for the price better than the expensive brand name. First rate fit and finish and materials I do believe that they may even have a better heat treatment on this blade. Way to go Firebird! I highly recommend this knife.

Spyderco quality for a reasonable price
Ganzo knives are a favorite of mine mostly because of price, but also because they have some amazing knife styles. This one is clearly inspired by a certain company, and I enjoy it immensely. Feels comfortable in the hand, nice sharp blade (sharp for 440C Stainless). I've got no complaints about this one! Ganzo continues to impress me! Highly recommend it!
