I freakin LOVE this knife

The toughest, if not, handiest damn knife I've ever owned. I literally never leave the house without it. Stonewash finish on the blade is beautiful, and the edge retention is incredible. Came with a VERY nice Italian leather sheath, and a couple stickers, cuz, c'mon man, who doesn't like stickers? Knife fits comfortably in hand (I don't have big beefy hands, but not small either) whether you're holding it saber, hammer, or reverse (although, jimping on the back of the pommel would have been nice). I would absolutely trust this knife if I got stuck in a shitty situation and needed it for survival. All in all, I'm extremely satisfied with it. Hats off to DPx for a freakin AWESOME knife!

The Niolox steel is fantastic, beautiful knife

I have 1095 steel knives and like them but I wanted to try a super steel and it is great . I’ve used the knife for everything during last couple of months and it hasn’t needed anything but stropping . Quality is great . I was concerned about size but I’ve found it does everything I want except cut down a tree.

Excellent

First off the leather sheath is top quality. It's made of really good leather and the stitching is spot-on The blade is very sharp and perfectly centered. I haven't thoroughly tested the Niolox steel, but Lion Steel makes an excellent product. one thing to note is the spine of this knife is thick which would lend itself to very hard use. They certainly used a very large chunk of steel to make this knife. The handle is made of good quality and it's very handy that they're easily removable. Overall the build quality is excellent and is very pleasing to the eye. I received this as a Christmas present and couldn't be happier!
