Review: Sherman tank of a knife - This knife is an absolute tank! I read all the reviews & watched the WeAllJuggleKnives review on Youtube prior to purchasing. At the time, I got it for a swingin’ deal…$35! The knife could easily be a one option carry knife if you kniw what you’re doing. It came hair shaving sharp straight out of the box (just as my wife😂). I don’t think you could break this knife unless you ran over it with a D9 dozer! The handle is a bit blocky for my taste, but that’s what Dremel tools & sandpaper are for. I’ll be putting a 22°-25° convex edge on it just out of preference, but out of the box, the grind angles were symmetrical, sharp, & quite functional. I’m a Ka-Bar & CRKT knife guy, usually, but I couldn’t pass this one up @ the price point. With the DC53 tool steel & 6mm blade width, I’d put this up against my BK9 any day of the week. The sheath is well made, REAL leather (not pleather as one reviewer wrote), and after about 1 hr putting it in the oven and putting dome good leather conditioner on the inside & outside, she’s a beaut! Side note- smear your choice of leather conditioner (Obenaufs is my choice) on the outside (warm sheath in oven on warm-150° first) then as far inside the sheath as you can, then use your wife’s hair dryer to heat up the knife blade, place it inside the sheath, and walla, the inside is conditioned. Let the sheath sit for a few days before putting the knife back in. I honestly have zero complaints about this knife or shesth, it’s a massive 👍🏼 purchase!!
Review: Great Knife Worth The Pricepoint - For the money definitely a hard choice to beat. It’s well built and doesn’t feel like a cheap chinese stamp with low grade wood grip nor does it look like it. Mine arrived quickly and was well sealed it had a small amount of oil that wiped right off, not sure if the dry climate was to blame but the wood pieces were fit very nicely no gaps anywhere on the knife. Only dig was the blockiness of the front portion on the grips definitely could use a bit of sanding there but overall nothing that impeded the comfort and functionality of the knife. As for the size this is a big knife however the weight is well within controllable and for the thickness it is actually pretty reasonable. When it comes to the sheath yes I’ve seen nicer but for the price point and the knife quality I’ll take the solid stitching and thickness of the leather it’ll hold up fine for most any use. The steel is not something I have any experience with but after using this knife I can say that it holds up great. My edge had no difference from the box to cutting through branches this thing was great it stayed shave sharp with no damage to the finish. I’ve had a good bit of large bladed knives this is now one of my favorites to throw in a bag or keep in a vehicle, after putting it through my test it seems to hold up to abuse and at the same time it’s a good price point to not stress about it. I haven’t heard of the company or seen much information on them which gave me some hesitation at first but this is definitely a knife; I’d recommend buying if you’re looking for a good large thick blade or like me just interested in the BA-KOR products.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Massive Bargain
*by H***E on May 21, 2025*

I purchased two of these when they were on sale, but even today they are priced at $39 - which is a bargain. The knife is built like a tank, very thick DC53 stock with a good factory edge. Suitable for a camp chopper, perhaps more. The pommel is exposed and ridged so that it can be used as an improvised hammer, and the handle scales are large and fit the hand well. I’ll know more about any blockiness on the scales after I whack on it for awhile. The spine has sectional jimping for different choke up grips, but also for scraping. While the included ferro rod comes with a striker, I’ll be curious if the spine has enough edging to strike on its own. It would have been nice to have something incorporated into the sheath to include the rod and striker, perhaps a loop or pocket. The sheath seems ok, it’s not a premium grade like I have seen on Cudeman or Jeo- Tec, but this is not a $100 plus knife. The retention strap seems solid. I’ve said this about their other models, but I’m not a big fan of the Miller Bros. induced blade treatment. However, that should not take away from the fact that this is a really good knife for the price. AA++
