Pros: Weight, Handle Material, Overall Quality, Blade Material, Sheath/Scabbard, Materials, Finish, Blade Sharpness
Cons: None
Tough good balance and very sharp
This is a collector´s item for me so I have not tried it outside but it looks tough as nails. I slashed paper at home with the knife cutting it like butter, it comes extremely sharp and oiled from the factory with the usual Cold Steel Securex sheath. I like the paint job, the balance of the knife, and the great grip the handle has, just be warned that the knife has a very ample blade and it feels like a small machete more than a knife. It is perfect for slashing but I don´t think it is suitable for piercing wood since it will need some strength from your part given wide blade that has not been trimmed down at the tip like other models do, but that also makes the blade harder to crack and more robust. Overall, good knife for camping and survival, not so good for hunting, I would get the Bowie model of this knife if piercing is important for you.
