Looks cool. Not Damascus

The knife isn’t a bad knife. It’s a ww2 trench dagger and well made. Has a wire wrapped handle, not copper, and it’s not Damascus. That’s my complaint, it’s more decorative than functional but you could use it and it would serve. But it comes pretty dull and if you put an edge on it, the coating goes away and shows plain steel underneath, and it’s kinda sparky on the grinder so I would say not that great of steel at that. Anything that’s black is simply paint and chips off almost immediately if used or worn. It’s sold in the ad as if it’s not a standard dagger that’s simply decorated, it’s sold as a “revolutionary” Damascus type and functional at that and I call BS on that. So either spend a little more and get a good one or a little less and get a real ww2 dagger. It is kinda neat, has almost a camouflage look to it, but it’s just lies that sell it so I giving it a bad review, and one bad pull on the sharpener and the cool “black Damascus” goes away. The seath could also be nicer, its leather and has belt clip but there are great tactical options that exist now that aren’t expensive that could be lighter and slimmer.
