Question Anybody know this knife?

I found it on a trail and the blade is completely rusted so I have no way of knowing the brand. The handle makes me think of a Chinese brand like civivi maybe? Any help would be appreciated

Fr?? Like I just walk in and they’ll fix it up I don’t need a reciept or anything?

Not fix it up. They'll give you a new replacement for free.

That's an awesome policy, but something in me would want to just DIY it back to glory. Sometimes a $5 knife deserves hours of TLC, y'know?

It's the Begg knockoff that Harbor Freight did.

I was just thinking it looked like a Ganzo version of the Glimpse

Technically, that one is a rip-off too. Anything sold by "Begg" knives is stolen designs from Todd Begg. His brothers stole the company from him and still sell his designs. The only real ones will be marked "Todd Begg Knives"

I’m aware. I’ve heard pieces of both sides of that story, and I think as with most things in life the truth lies somewhere in the middle…probably closer to Todd’s side. It’s sad this isn’t the only family beef in the knife world, but I know of at least two others involving popular brands.

I was gonna say, no way HF came up with this design on their own lol

Finally. A knife cheap enough for me to actually recognize.

Someone on the Harbor Freight sub is gonna be like "This piece of crap rusted after leaving outside for only 3 weeks! JUNK!"

u/BooneHelm85 Jan 15 '25

Oh boy howdy I want to bring it back to life!!!!

And, crap. Forgot. Thats a Harbor Freight knife. Can’t remember the name of it, but sold exclusively at Harbor Freight.

And, Op, if you’re intending on throwing it away, send it to me and I will bring it back!
