The Flissa D2 Folding Knife (F014057) is a pocket knife with a D2 tool steel blade, a textured green G10 handle and a liner lock. It weighs 106 g and folds to 11.5 cm. It’s the knife to reach for when you want an edge that stays sharp. I paid $28 for it.

The D2 blade
D2 is a hard tool steel that holds an edge longer than the softer stainless on most budget knives, and it came sharp out of the box. The drop-point shape is a good all-rounder for rope, food and small carving jobs. The trade-off is rust: D2 is only semi-stainless, so wipe and dry it after a wet day or cutting fruit.
Opening and the lock
On the ball-bearing pivot the blade swings out quickly with a push on the flipper tab, and the liner lock clicks in behind it with no wobble. Closing takes two hands: push the liner lock aside with one thumb and fold the blade in with the other hand, keeping your fingers clear of the edge.
Grip and carry
The G10 scales are textured enough to hold onto with wet or dirty hands without being rough, and G10 doesn’t mind water. At 106 g it’s solid in the hand, and folded to 11.5 cm it carries easily, though the clip isn’t deep-carry, so the end of the knife sits above the pocket.

Conclusion: Flissa D2 Folding KnifeConclusion
The Flissa D2 Folding Knife gives you a D2 blade that stays sharp, a quick ball-bearing pivot and a grippy G10 handle at a budget price. D2 needs drying to keep rust away, and the clip isn’t deep-carry. I paid $28, and for a folder that holds its edge it’s a good buy.
A budget folder with D2 steel that stays sharp.
The ball-bearing pivot opens quickly and the G10 handle is grippy, all for the $28 we paid. D2 is only semi-stainless, so dry the blade after wet use, and the pocket clip isn't deep-carry.
