Excellent blade

I have all variations of this knife. Sleipner and 3V. G10 and wood handles. The leather sheaths are very well made and the nylon sheaths work well. Works perfect as an outdoor, survival, hunting and some bushcraft crossover work. I’m somewhat of a knife nerd when it comes to high end knives and metals. I will put these knives up against a Magnacut Reiff, Montana Knife Co etc blade any day. While I do prefer magnacut for its stainless properties, the 3V and Sleipner steel is heat treated very well and can stand up to tons of abuse. This is my go to knife because it is dependable and fits my hand perfectly. I wear Large to XL gloves.

Lionheart Knife

I was surprised that the quality of every part of the knife and sheath was as good as pictured. In actual use it matches very closely with my Benchmade Bushcrafter. It is so light in weight you will never know it is on your belt until you need it. It feels very comfortable in the hand for lengthy cutting operations and chops better than its light weight would suggest. It is rugged enough for any outdoor chore. The sheath is so well made it matches any of the finest customs in my collection. They even went the extra mile and molded in a belt contour so it instantly slides on or off the belt without binding, yet stays where it is put. All in all, a knife made to be used, but very beautiful as well.

Lion steel m5

I wanted an all around hunting knife and this fits the bill. Already comes with a nice leather sheath. This is my first tool steel knife and it's not rusting as bad as I thought it would. Though it did stain when I cut some green saplings with it. I don't think you could go wrong with this knife. Just has a hard time throwing sparks.
