Knives FAST review - ESEE Avispa
Published: 9 years ago
Review of my favorite EDC knife from ESEE, the Avispa!
Stainless steel frame lock with a stonewash finish. 4.40 OZ with a 3.50" AUS-8 Blade. Easy on the wallet and a good solid EDC choice. It's my go to and I plan to get more varieties of it.
UPDATE: One thing I left out is the one con on the knife. Blade centering is a bit of an issue, You can center the blade by tightening the pivot screw, but when it is centered it feels way too tight to me. To get the knife where you can flip it open with the thumb stud well, the blade becomes a bot off center. It isn't terrible, but I'd love the best of both worlds. I do love the smoothness of flipping it open the way I have it set now.
Here's a link to the Avispa options at Blade HQ. No, they didn't pay me, that's just where I found the best deal and bought this knife.
