Very light and extremely sharp now.

I believe I saw this knife on one of the weekly update. Looked perfect for me - fixed blade that is not too big. The knife is secure in the sheath which can be used with the bet loop or not. Not sure how much it weigh's but it is light. Handle is comfortable for everything I have used it for - cutting meat for the grill, opening mail, etc. I did spend some time with the knife on a Ruixin Pro Sharpener. I used a "slicy" angle and it is extremely sharp despite it's D2 blade. Come on - quit hating D2!! Anyhow, if you have $50 and are looking for a good fixed blade that is going to do all of your camp, edc, hunting and fishing needs I would recommend this blade.

Great hunting knife!

I bought this knife a year ago but just used it for the first time a few weeks ago to break down a deer. I was super impressed. The blade geometry results in a slicy blade, which I love. The finger choils and jimping make it easy to hold securely in a variety if positions when butchering, quartering, etc. The sheath is solid and allows for belt carry or the belt loop can be removed for easier carry in a backpack, which is how I carry it. Finally the D2 steel is an excellent lower cost steel that will hold an edge. I'm super impressed and this knife will be a regular carry in my hunting backpack.
