this is the best knife for its class, I personally use it for food prep when camping, its extremely sharp and the blade isn't coated in anything. This knife is worth 30-40$ easily but sells for 13........buy it

I owned one of these carbon steel knives 20 years ago. I cant tell you how great a everday tool it is. It takes an edge that you can shave with, and it lasts forever. The only reason I had to purchase a new one was I lost my first off a boat while fishing for strippers, broke my heati as I loved that blade. i cant give this knife a higher  recommendation. A great everyday Knife

If you want an excellent knife, this is it.  I'm sure there are more expensive ones out there but there are none better.  The blade is made of many layers of steel making it very strong.  The blade is also very thin as compared to cheaper knives.  Be advised that this is a right handed knife (the handle is "D" shaped to fit your hand).  I believe that left hand ones are available.

This is the mother of all knife sets.
There are really two main competitors in the high-end mainstream kitchen knife market:  Henckels and Wusthof.  Those who have used both usually have a preference.  My preference (and therefore bias you should know about) is for the Wusthofs.
The Wusthof Grand Prix line is a more modern design than the Classic series, with a simple black handle.  The balance and grip of these knives are as close to perfect as I have found.  For those wondering what benefits a higher priced knife provides, one benefit is that the blade (or tang) is one piece all the way through the handle.  This makes the blade much stronger, and less likely to snap.
This set includes a 6, 8, and 10 inch chef's knives; 2  inch peeling knife; 3   inch paring; 4  inch utility; 5 inch tomato; 9 inch bread; 5 inch boning; 8 inch carving knife and fork; 6 inch sandwich; 6 inch flexible fillet; 7 inch santoku; 6 inch cleaver, eight steak knives, sharpening steel, kitchen shears, and an oak block
The chef's knives are great knives.  This set includes all three sizes of chef's knives offered in the Grand Prix line, 6, 8 and 10 inch.  For most home cooks, I think the 8 inch knife is the best choice.  The 6 inch is a bit small for bigger jobs, but the 10 inch is too big for most jobs.
The Wusthof 4  inch utility knife is a great all-around knife. This is the knife I use for the majority of my small chopping work (when I don't use a Chef's knife).
As for the 3  inch paring knife, this knife falls into the category of overkill for me.  Most cooks will get by just fine with the 4  inch utility knife.  There is really no notable difference in size for the vast majority of applications between the 3  inch paring knife and the 4  inch utility knife.  I prefer the 4  inch utility knife, but the 3  inch paring knife is a good addition to the set.
I have found very few uses for the 6 inch sandwich and the 5 inch salami knives.  I prefer the larger size of the chef's knife or the smaller 4  inch utility knife.  The knives are just the wrong width and length for most tasks, and fall into the overkill department, except when part of a set.
The 2  inch trimming knife, however, is a good length for small tasks, like trimming fat from cuts of meat.
The 6 inch cleaver, is a good cleaver.  Most people really don't use a cleaver anymore, as they buy either pre-cut/pre-packaged meats, or they have the butcher cut the meat into loins or steaks for them.  If you really are going to use a cleaver, this one is my favorite.  The weight and balance are very good.
The 5 inch boning knife is a good knife.  I think this knife is slightly more useful for the everyday cook than the cleaver.  I find this knife useful for both boning and fat trimming.
The bread knife, is a great knife.  Many people think tomatoes are the hardest food items to clearly cut.  I think bread is much more difficult; but this knife makes the task seem easy.  This set includes  the 9 inch knife that I prefer over the 8 inch.
When it comes to sharpening steels, I have found very little difference between Henckels and Wusthof.  As long as you buy a high end steel, you really won't go wrong.  Therefore, I shop for this item on price, and Henckels has a price advantage.  However as the steel comes with the set, you won't go wrong with this steel.
This set is as complete as they come.  If you can afford it, I highly recommend it.

This is a fantastic knife. Over the years I've had many top quality knives, the last being a J. A. Henckel. That was a heavy knife and never seemed to stay sharp. I just got this and I am blown away by it. It fits my hand perfectly and is well balanced. It made slicing meat and chopping vegetables a breeze. And it is razor sharp. Totally worth the money.

I've owned 2 of these knives and I cannot tell you how much I love it. It's got a great flip assist that locks well. The blade keeps its edge, and the grip is perfect. It's extremely durable and it's made very well.  I use this almost every day. It's always in my purse and I always travel with it. Several of my friends have ordered this knife after seeing how amazing it is. It is my go to knife from here on out.

There is no other knife like it! Once you use this knife there is no going back to any other one!

I own both the 8 inch and the 10 inch versions of this knife. They are incredibly high quality, sharp, a pleasure to use, and long lasting. No other knife in this price range comes in close. And many more expensive knives don't come close either. Highly recommended.

I bought this for my wife and she loves using it. It has perfect balance and the sharpness is truly amazing. The knife seems to hold it edge and is sharp enough to cut through soft tomatoes which was previously only possible with our serrated  knives. After using this knife for while, we bought the Chef knife and utility knife. which are also great knives too. There are many knives, we have many that look as nice but are missing the extra quality steel and manufacturing process that make these knives the standout they are and worth the premium price.

This knife can do everything you need a knife to do. The 420hc steel is sharp enough to cut through wires, and also skin animals with precision. The full tang design and thickness of the blade gives it unmatched durability. Needs resharpening frequently if you use it heavily everyday like I do, but the blade WILL hold a sharp edge. Im just aggressive with this blade. Fits perfectly in the hand, has a great weight/balance to it, and is larger than you might think (or see in the picture). Also the sheath it comes with is excellent, I wear mine everyday and it has not given out me. Great quality. Buck outdid themselves with this knife - I RECOMMEND THIS KNIFE TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A SHARP, DURABLE, AND RELIABLE BLADE. Its the perfect knife - buy it and enjoy it.

This is the most amazing knife on the planet. It is extremely heavy duty and freakishly sharp. I accidentally sliced my arm with it while cutting a tag and I will bear the deep scar proudly forever! It is basically a scalpel with the sharpness. Given how sharp it is, though, if you cut something that is too heavy duty, it will hurt the blade. Spyderco does offer a complimentary resharpening service for the life of the knife but you have to pay for the shipping to them. The stainless steel handle is the best, hands down. It seems like it would make it very heavy, but it does not, it simply adds more control when you are using it and makes it feel much more reliable and sturdy, whether or not that is the case.

I will never buy another folding knife for my entire life unless it is from Spyderco. The "Spyder Hole" makes opening the knife nearly as fast as an automatic blade.
Spyderco Endura 4 Stainless Steel Combination Edge knife is a solid 10 out of 10. 100% amazing.

I was thinking about a zero tolerance 0560 but decided to go with this knife. There is no question this is the first and last knife you will ever need. Exceptional quaility and design. I will most likely never own another knife.  It is a steal for the the money.

I have owned a lot of knives and for the cost of this knife, I doubt you will find another knife this well crafted.  I carry this every day now.

The terrific reviews here do not mislead you about this knife.  It is a truly first-rate product, and worth every penny.

Its an awesome knife! This is my first benchmade & it is truly high end. I bought it as a gift to myself for my 26th birthday. The blade is extremely sharp with high retention. The AXIS lock is incredibly effortless compared to many other folding knives. I like the fact that the thumb studs & AXIS lock is ambidextrous. The hook blade is a bonus, you forget sometimes that you have it, it blends well with its slim appearance. The hook is made for skinning but as for me I'm in law enforcement, so this hook blade can be used as a seatbelt cutter, etc. much like in the benchmade triage 916 for EMTs that i was seriously considering prior to finding this grizzly creek. I don't see a difference in the hook from the triage for EMTs & this hook blade for skinning.

The weight is perfect for an everyday carry. I have a BUCK 112 Ranger that i carry w the sheath sometimes & its very heavy for a smaller sheath knife. But this grizzly creek is light enough that you won't notice the weight in your jean pocket but when our holding it, its heavy enough to know that this knife is extremely reliable & durable.

My dad always carried a pocket knife when i was growing up & i picked up carrying an EDC from him. But unfortunately some "sensitive" folks think if you carry, your dangerous, or your going to mug someone, or you carry a knife for the mere purpose of self defense. These misconceptions are furthest from the truth. So getting away from carrying a sheath to a modern pocket clip but still keeping the same rugged look of a hunting knife is perfect.

Since I received it, it goes with me everywhere. Im the kind of person that will invest a little more for quality especially if you plan on getting good use of it. I would admit, the wood handle isn't as dark of a wood i would have preferred, its a bit lighter then that of the picture depicts it to be, but nevertheless its a beautiful handle & a beautiful work of art. It'll be hard for any other knife to top this one for an everyday carry, it'll be my EDC for a very very longtime.

Bottom line, its a man's knife. I highly recommend it, its an investment that you can pass on to your son.

.If you're a knife aficionado you've read or heard about the advantages of CPM 3v.
If you don't have a blade in this flavor or would like another one, this is the 1 for YOU.
This covers all the bases, Quality, Price, Style, Durability, and Appearance.
When you hold this knife and slide your fingers over the flat side of the polished blade you know you've got something special.
Each knife is individually serialized, fit and finish are superb and it will take an edge better than most of the many knives I own.
Some would say the fact that CPM 3v is not stainless is a disadvantage, but persons who know steel know it's a bad idea to ride a blade hard and put it away wet, no matter what kind of steel it is.
As long as you take as much care for this knife as you would your cell phone you'll never have any issues with it.
