I like the look and feel of the EF107. It feels rock-solid and comfortable in my hand, it perhaps a little heavier than I expected. Though this could be called a budget knife at around $30, it looks really good, and doesn’t have any of the red flags that would ordinarily scream “cheap knock-off”.

Good things often come in small packages. The Mini Hudson Bay knife from Condor is a good example to back up that axiom, and it’s also proof that words like ‘small’ and ‘mini’ are entirely relative.
