Review of Enlan EL-06 Knife Black G10 w Stonewash OR Camouflage w Coated Blade + Enlan KEY
Published: 8 years ago
Buy it from GearBest EL-06 CAMOUFLAGE: http://www.gearbest.com/pocket-knives-and-folding-knives/pp_238098.html?lkid=10904147
They NOW have the EL-06 in plain BLACK G10 with STONEWASH blade made of 9Cr13MoV. I like it MUCH MORE than the camo version: http://www.gearbest.com/pocket-knives-and-folding-knives/pp_238662.html?lkid=10904142
The Enlan El-06 is a full sized folder. Like all of Enlan's knives, it is targeted to the low-cost, high-value pocket knife market. The problem is that this version simply is not of the top quality that many of the other Enlan knives are. It is a good blade with no problems in terms of cutting performance, the negatives lay elsewhere. This knife version also comes in black G10, and that is a much better choice as this brown camo is just painted on the black G10. I do not like the coating on the blade. Both versions of the knife are right hand only with liner locks. The lock and lockup was done very well on our test knife.
Finally, the pivot screw has a proprietary top, but there is a good solution to that GearBest sells an Enlan pivot screw tool for less than $5USD: http://www.gearbest.com/multitools/pp_259135.html?lkid=10904108
