This is really a great knife. It's a small knife but it can perform great tasks.

The knife was out of the box razor sharp. The 1095 steel is easy to sharpen. Even in the field with a little (Fallkniven DC4) stone.

The coating is very durable and protects the blade well.

For me the knife of choice during a hike.

The sheath is functional but the RC4 sheath is much better.

Overall a great knife!

this knife is just great, ergos are great, the orange is very eye pleasing, the powder coating has held up exceptionally well. the only thing that i dont like is the stock sheath, there is a bit of rattle but i have yet to have the knife shake out on me yet. if you dont have one of these, get one.

for a small knife, this is an great tool!

it's been used for splitting kindling, cutting up apples, breaking down boxes, and opening x-mas presents with no problems on any of it.

when I first got it I took a hone to the edge and haven't had to touch it up since.

steel is 1095 with a heat treat that allows the blade to flex during hard use but not break.

blade is coated with a tough baked finish that shows scuff marks but is pretty durable so far.

scale to handle fit is excellent.

to top the package off, this knife came with the best warranty of anything I've ever seen.
