I have the 154cm model
This for me is the ideal all-around use fixed blade. Its the perfect size to always have with you in the sticks or desert or any wilderness scenario. The non-coated blade makes it a reliable striker for ferro rods if you opt against lighter usage or simply forgot it or left it home. It tough enough not to crumble under pressure. Easy to sharpen blade profile and lighter than expected makes this one of the top choices for a serious bush knife/all purpose knife. I have an older 154cm version thats going on 6 years now can't recommend this knife enough! Its not cheap, but its also not a $500 Busse or similar so theres no qualms about using it as its intended to be used. If you want a more budget friendly blade, look into Cold Steel SK models, which I also am fond of. I carry this knife with a RMJ S7 or Kerstal tomahawk on my solo adventures and never had a hard time getting through any conditions I found myself in where needing an edged tool was required.
