You're killing me, man! Those are pretty cool autos and not very pricey. Interested in how well they hold up, anyone EDC one over the past couple years? Thanks!

I like that Mag case too.

They are great knives. My wife found one in the street in front of our house in 2006. It was already pretty beat up when she found it but it still works great.

The one I had developed blade play so I took the pivot screw out and found no locktite. Put some blue on the screw and adjusted the action then let it sit for 24 hours, never had a problem after that. Wouldn't mind having another with the upgraded steel I've seen on some.

If you can find some Ganzo automatics you should grab some up. Less than half the price if you don't mind the slow boat from China and the quality is great.

Sam! I got an F7211 first, then an F707, and the F7362 is on the way! I got them just in time because the seller has stopped shipping to Canada due to too many customers claiming they didn't get theirs, and the tracking stops once they reach Canada so there is no way for the seller to know if it was a Customs seizure, or, if people are simply cheating them by asking for refunds, or, if they were legitimately lost in the mail. I'd put my money on the first 2! Some people's children, I'm tell'in ya! I got the 3 I wanted so it worked out for me! I almost ordered the F7362 with wood scales, but at the last minute I went with G-10, so it would match the F7211. There's pics of the first 2 towards the end of my "Some of my autos" post, and I'll post the 3rd. when it arrives next week! 8)

I went on a Ganzo spree when they first came out. Had about five of the carbon fiber / axis lock versions that were out at the time. Decent knives, but I had to sell off a sizeable amount of my collection a few years back, and the imports were the first to go.

I did have one of the Ganzo Firebird F758 auto's. Nice, really light aluminum frame, smooth deployment too.

Well, you can't beat the price. I had some fun putting stronger springs in them and putting springs in some sold as manuals.
