Pros: Blade Sharpness, Overall Quality
Cons: Sheath/Scabbard

Almost great: needs 15% bigger

Beau little design, decent utility but wouldn’t call it tactical or hard use. Needs >0.5” more handle to apply proper leverage with pinky in standard grip or thumb in ice pick. Needs another >0.5” on blade for self defense. Great pinch grip, small forward finger choils appreciated (which could also be a hair bigger). TOPS needs to stretch 15% length and width (not thickness) and it would be a proper EDC, maybe call it “Ranger Full Stop” - as it stands this is the more practical alternative to Mini Tanimbocca Pukko and should come with leather sheath not kydex. The tapered handle on this Short Stop needs a lot of help in terms of grip so I’ve had to wrap leather cord between the bottom 2 holes.
