Pros: Weight, Handle Material, Blade Material, Sheath/Scabbard, Materials, Finish, Blade Sharpness
Cons: Overall Quality
Beautiful but Not EK or K bar quality
Have been a huge fan of EK knives since the early 90s. Ordered one from Richmond when I was in Iraq, never received it due to moving to a different FOB (my loss). When I saw that K bar finally used the leaf blade design I immediately placed my order. It looks beautiful, The problem I had however, was when I received the knife, the guard is extremely loose, and wobbled whenever the knife was moved . It’s very unfortunate, because the rest of the knife I would call perfect. Incredibly disappointed in the quality control from Ka-bar. Expected much more from a company that makes one of the best finding knives in the world.
