Top Ranked Knife
I collect knives. I have many. This knife fits your hand really perfectly. It’s very well made. It’s made for men who use a knife daily or use it to protect themselves with. I don’t know if it’s from the hand forging and hammering on an anvil when red hot, but it holds an edge and cuts like a razor. I have collected around 100 knives and this one holds the best edge of all of them. If I only had one knife to use in the forest or to protect myself with, I would choose this one. Whoever heat treated this knife knew what they were doing. Many name brands are 2nd’s compared to the edge quality of this knife. The sheath is handmade and different from most. I’m just not used to it. Nothing more.

Cons: None
Solid
I've had one of these for a two years now, carried it often and put it through its paces. It's a stellar bush knife that never fails me and can handle all camp and bushcraft tasks other than hacking wood, which it's obviously not built for. It also feels great in hand and has some weight to it. The pictures here don't really do it justice. It actually looks even cooler in person. My only critiques would be as follows:You may need to shape the edge a little. Mine came with a few burrs in the edge. However, once the edge is set proper, it holds an edge immaculately and is easy to sharpen.The sheathe isn't great. It isn't bad, but I always think today is the day it splits lol. If you have the means, replacing it with a better sheathe would be ideal.Anyway, this has become my primary carry fixed blade and I have been and continue to be very happy with it

Cons: None
Best of ancient and new
Much more comfortable than I thought it would be. Very solid and takes a wicked edge. Still getting used to non standard belt loop and the lanyard is a bit cheap looking but stronger than it looks. Overall: MUCH sturdier than it looks and more comfortable.
