Review: I came back 3 years later to buy this knife again! - I bought one of these in 2017 for myself. I found it to be a pretty great all-around knife if you’re ok with exchanging utility of use for the inconvenience of a bulky, large-ish, fixed blade knife. It’s inexpensive enough that you can really put it to work without fear. A friend of ours really dug it, so I gifted him mine. I’ve been missing that knife for a couple years, so I ordered and just received a new one. I’m pretty pleased overall with this knife. It’s heavy in the way you’d want a tool like this to be. It comes very sharp and holds an edge pretty well. Handle is sturdy and pretty, but the pins have some edges as does the spine of the blade through the handle which could be annoying. It’s an inexpensive Chinese knife that foots the bill really well dollar-for-dollar in my experience.
Review: Most comfortable knife I ever put on my belt ! - This is a great hunting or fishing knife! Yes, the handle is somewhat small, however after putting it on my belt. I realized that is part of what makes this such a great knife. It rides on Your belt like it is not even there. The smaller handle unlike the normal large handle does not stick out and make it bulky while You are wearing it. Yet it is not so small that it is not fully useful while in hand. In other words it is a trade off, but it also makes this the most comfortable knife of this type I have ever worn. Yes it has some minor flaws that only become apparent .......when VERY closely..... scrutinized. None are noticeable during normal handling without over eye balling. Mine came sharp enough to shave forearm hair with. I feel You must consider these faults along with the price You are paying to be fair. I will gladly take these with this price without complaint. Make no mistake this is a comfortable, sharp, useful knife at a GREAT price. I will order several for gifts this year. Also the sheathe is nice, and I love how the snap is operated from front to rear(to unsnap). That really makes it easy to unsheathe while on Your belt. I also rubbed it with canola (cooking) oil and a paper towel and it made the sheathe look fantastic! Pull the trigger on this one.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this thing good at small tasks? Like bushcraft stuff?**
A: I don't know what you mean by bushcraft stuff but this is a well made knife that is blade heavy.  If you're talking about weeding out flower gardens or limbs around a campsite it works well.  The blade is 440 stainless and hold a great edge.  It feels great in the hand and real good for skinning deer and making shoulder cuts with ease.

**Q: what is the blade length?**
A: Well the overall length is approx. 9.5", I have not measured the blade length, but guessing, I would say it would be about 6.5" long. Amazon sells knives with longer blades check them out and decide which is right for you.

**Q: Blade thick?**
A: Yes, it is a very thick, sturdy blade.

**Q: Is thid good for field dressing a deer?**
A: Yes you could field dress a deer with it. It's a good sturdy blade and it holds an edge really well

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small knife but well made and attractive
*by R***N on April 21, 2014*

I like it, not enough for five stars, but I like it. One of the other reviews said it was smaller than expected and I can agree with that, but that's not a negative. It is a very handsome, well built, sturdy and sharp piece of steel. There must have been a leather shortage when they made the sheath because they used precious little of it. You really have to jam the knife into it and then force the snap to shut, but it does shut firmly and securely. That's really unimportant. I have yet to buy a knife for the sheath. This is a good addition to my collection of fixed blade knives. It sports a full tang and a very nice wood or simulated wood handle and the weight of the knife feels just right for its size. I too am a big guy with big hands, but didn't feel as though the knife got lost, there's plenty of gleaming, sharp blade to prove that I am holding one. I don't know how this knife or any of my knives would stand up under hard use because I don't use them that way, I collect knives for my own personal viewing pleasure. I don't hunt, crawl through rain forests, fight crocks or whittle so if you are looking for a review for that kind of stuff, this ain't it. This is a sharp knife that comes in a skimpy leather sheath. It is not a toy and should not be within the reach of children.
