Exactly What I Came For
I went searching for something small enough to carry at work (warehousing) and sturdy enough to be functional for purpose (mostly cutting shrink-wrap and packing tape with the occasional bit of cardboard). This knife is exactly what I was looking for. Fit and finish are tight and even. Handle scales appear removable but arrived both tight and flush with each other (tang extends past scales as advertised). There is no rattle in the drawn piece and very minimal rattle in sheath. This blade is not falling out or shaking around while sheathed. Leather is supple and well formed for the blade it houses. Release is perfect for wearing gloves and drawing knife. Only thing about the sheath I wish I would have known prior to purchase would be method of carry. This sheath comes with a metallic belt/boot/pocket clip. This only means I'll have to find a way to attach to outer thigh as originally desired. Not in any way a mark against the product. Well done guys! Weight is balanced very near the bolt closest to the blade. Blade is near shaving sharp upon arrival with no apparent defects in craftsmanship. Finger choils and jimping are comfortable bilaterally. Blade geometry is even and grip is comfortable in both "standard" and icepick styles. I recommend researching your desired blade material prior to purchase but it'll work for what I need. Cheers all!
