The Ganzo D704 D2 Folding Knife for Outdoor Use is a versatile folding knife designed for outdoor activities, ideal for camping, hunting, and everyday carry. For example, its 85mm D2 steel blade can slice through rope or small branches, making it perfect for preparing campfire meals or clearing a trail. Featuring a G10 handle with an Axis Lock, it ensures a secure grip and safety. With a 1-year warranty, this Ganzo D704 D2 Folding Knife for Survival Use suits outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, and EDC users.
Sharp and Durable Blade Performance
The Ganzo D704 features an 85mm drop-point blade made of D2 steel, hardened to 60 HRC, offering excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance compared to 440C steel used in other Ganzo models. The blade's satin finish minimizes glare, making it suitable for outdoor use, and its 4mm thickness provides strength for tasks like cutting rope, preparing game, or light chopping. The drop-point design with a plain edge is versatile for slicing and piercing, and a thumb stud allows for easy one-handed opening. D2 steel, while not fully stainless, has better corrosion resistance than most carbon steels but may still require maintenance in humid conditions to prevent rust. This makes it a durable choice for outdoor tasks, though users should be prepared to maintain the blade to ensure long-term performance, especially in wet environments.
Ergonomic and Durable Design
The Ganzo D704 has a G10 fiberglass handle, known for its strength, lightweight properties, and resistance to moisture and impact. Available in black or green, the handle measures 115mm in length and 15mm in thickness, offering a comfortable grip with a textured surface for enhanced control, even in wet conditions. The knife weighs 134g, making it a lightweight option for folding knives, with a total length of 200mm when unfolded. It features an Axis Lock mechanism for secure blade retention, a steel clip for tip-down carry (with two mounting positions for ambidextrous use), and a lanyard hole for additional carrying options. The G10 scales are mounted on a steel frame, ensuring a solid construction. This design makes it a practical choice for outdoor use, balancing portability and functionality, though the fixed clip position may not suit all carry preferences.
Versatile for Outdoor and Survival Use
The Ganzo D704 D2 Folding Knife for Survival Use is designed for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a reliable tool for tasks like preparing food, cutting cord, or clearing vegetation during camping or hiking. Its D2 blade provides superior edge retention compared to 440C, making it suitable for demanding tasks such as processing game during hunting trips or building shelters in survival scenarios. The Axis Lock ensures safe operation under heavy use, and its ambidextrous design accommodates both right- and left-handed users, enhancing its versatility. The knife's compact folded size of 115mm makes it easy to carry, though its 134g weight offers a reassuring heft for tougher tasks. It's ideal for campers, hunters, or anyone needing a durable folding knife for outdoor adventures, providing excellent performance for its price, though its D2 steel may require more careful maintenance in humid environments compared to stainless steels.
