The head, with a typically utilitarian spear-point profile, has an optimal length of 87 mm, allowing the knife to handle most of the tasks you'll face during everyday and outdoor activities. The slender wedge uses a flat grind, which not only has less tendency to wedge in the material being cut, but is also more robust compared to the popular concave grind.

The 440C steel used, with a hardening of 58-60 HRC, is highly resistant to corrosion, has good retention (ability to hold sharpness), is wear-resistant and sharpens easily and quickly. Thanks to such properties, the 440C steel knife will be an ideal choice for beginner outdoor enthusiasts and those who do not want to waste time on lengthy and tedious sharpening of a premium steel knife. The aggressive stab (tip) and high flat grind provide good penetration, blade strength and good cutting properties. The blade has a matte stonewashed (abrasive stone bath) finish, which effectively masks minor scratches or abrasions of the blade caused by use.
Thanks to the use of a flipper and peg (with the option to switch to the other side), the knife can be quickly and easily unfolded with one hand. Such a solution makes the knife not only instantly ready for use, but also convenient for right- and left-handed users. A monolithic frame-lock with an additional hardened steel insert effectively protects against accidental folding of the head, which guarantees reliability and safe operation. The frame-lock is considered one of the most durable locking mechanisms, characterized by resistance to dirt and comfortable operation.
In the design of the knife, a large role is played by the handle, as on it depends the comfort and safety of use. The Ganzo G743-1-GR uses steel liners with G10 laminate overlays. The grated texture of the grip makes the knife sit securely and comfortably even in a wet or frozen hand. A steel deep-carry clip (with no option to flip to the other side) makes it easy to carry the knife discreetly in your pocket.
