I. Love. This. Blade.

Sheath is tricky to get onto a MOLLE attachment. Haven't tried belt deployment. The knife feels awesome in the hand. Too early to make a verdict on the steel used.

Do it all Survival Knife

If the ESEE 3 or 4 handle is a little thin for you, this DPx HEFT is a great knife for you. The G10 scales are round nicely for a comfortable grip and the thumb ramp with jimping is awesome. I like the slip in design of the sheath, it allows me to sheath and unsheath my knife quickly while providing adequate retention. The button straps are leather lined, which is awesome btw, and that prevents you from cutting those straps when you pull the knife out. The steel is beautifully stonewashed, comes hair-popping sharp, and holds an excellent edge. Through my use, it's proved to be extremely rust resistant and durable - it's far exceeded my expectations. What a great knife that's also got the perfect tool to pop a top off at the end of a long day - very well thought out and executed design.

great user knife

Will do just about all you would need a 4 inch blade to do. The only thing that didn't work for me with this knife were the wire strippers, those didn't seem to work as intended, but as a consolation, they work GREAT for striking a flint. The blade grind is a little asymmetrical, though and that is one thing that is not often mentioned about this knife. Like the type of grind you would get if you hand sharpened it on a flat stone one side at a time, without applying the same number of strokes on each side.
