Before we dive in, don’t forget to check out our other blog reviews and our YouTube channel for more knife content. Alright, let’s get into it!

Unboxing the QSP Dolphin

When it comes to packaging, QSP knows how to make a good first impression. The box itself features a sleek design with a minimalistic color scheme, making it look professional and clean. The logo on the front is bold, but not overwhelming, giving the entire package a refined, high-quality feel. On the back, you’ll find some basic product details and specs, ensuring that you’re aware of what’s inside.

Opening the box, you’re greeted by the QSP Dolphin nestled safely inside a protective pouch. Alongside the knife, you’ll find a few extra goodies—like a cleaning cloth to keep your blade shining and some branded stickers that knife enthusiasts will love to collect.

QSP Dolphin Overview

The QSP Dolphin comes in three variants, giving you some options to suit your personal style. While today's review covers the white pearl shell handle version, all three variants will be available on the QSP website, so you can grab whichever suits your preference.

Key Features

• Handle Material: The handle is made from stunning pearl shell, which gives it a sleek, sophisticated look with a clean white finish. The material feels solid and premium in the hand, offering a nice balance of comfort and durability.
• Lanyard Hole: Unfortunately, there’s no lanyard hole, which might be a downside for some who prefer having that extra attachment point.
• Pocket Clip: The QSP Dolphin doesn’t come with a pocket clip, which could be a dealbreaker for those who like easy accessibility. It’s a simple, clean design that favors a more streamlined approach.
• Reversible Clip: As mentioned, no pocket clip, so there’s no need to worry about reversibility here.

Lock Type: Liner Lock

The knife utilizes a liner lock mechanism, which feels secure and smooth when engaging and disengaging. It’s a tried-and-tested lock that ensures the blade stays firmly in place during use.

Blade Features

• Blade Steel: The blade is made from 14C28N stainless steel, a solid choice for corrosion resistance and edge retention. It’s known for holding a sharp edge and performing well in a variety of cutting tasks.
• Blade Style: The blade itself is a clip-point design, which not only looks great but is also practical for precision cutting and detailed work.
• Thumb Studs: The QSP Dolphin features thumb studs, allowing for smooth one-handed deployment—always a plus when you’re in a hurry.
• Jimping: The knife has some jimping on the spine, providing extra traction and control when using the knife for tasks that require more precision.
• Blade Finish: The mirror-polished finish on the blade gives it a refined look, while also making maintenance a bit easier since the shiny surface resists grime and dirt build-up.
• Blade Grind: A flat grind ensures that the blade has a good balance of sharpness and durability, perfect for everyday tasks.

Size and Specifications

Let’s talk dimensions for a second. The QSP Dolphin boasts a sleek profile:

• Handle Length: 4.65 inches
• Blade Length: 3.15 inches
• Overall Length: 7.8 inches

This gives the knife a balanced and comfortable feel in hand, with the blade being the perfect size for a variety of tasks.

Conclusion

All in all, the QSP Dolphin is a stunning knife that excels in both style and function. Its mirror-polished blade and elegant pearl shell handle make it a standout, while the liner lock and thumb studs provide smooth, reliable performance. Sure, there’s no pocket clip or lanyard hole, but if you don’t mind that, the Dolphin could be a fantastic addition to your collection.

With three different variants to choose from, the QSP Dolphin is definitely worth checking out. As of this review, all variants are available on our website, so head over there and grab yours today.
