It's a BEAST
It's a BEAST. Not ideal on the end of my M16 because of the weight but doable. Great for knife fighting however because it's got a great handle for maximizing your grip strength and the guard is not letting your hand slide forward, giving you 100% confidence to go against the wall in a fight. Blade arrived super sharp from factory so that definitely pleased me. Don't think Joe X has gotten his hands on this one yet for one of his destruction tests but i would LOVE to see it. The knife is AUS 8 but it's very thick and if heat treated properly, should be virtually indestructible. Tip looks very strong as well. I'm definitely pleased with the purchase as i've wanted a bayonet for the M16 for quite a while now. I'm a SOF vet and i give this thing a thumbs up. I'd rather have something virtually indestructible, albeit heavy, as opposed to something that will break.
