The last knife I ever needed
I have been carrying this knife for about 2 years now and have been extremely impressed. It takes a great edge and holds it well, the tip is extremely sharp. Be mindful of rust though while it won’t instantly turn to rust It will be a good idea to just take care of the edge. The cerekote finish has been the most durable out of any other knife I have used, and have not seen any corrosion where it is finished. I did notice the bevel seems to uniformly change from the back of the edge towards the tip seemingly to aid the rear of the blade to rougher harder cuts which I have used for whittling and the middle out for more sharper cuts although it cuts very well throughout the whole edge. Clamshell packaging, cardboard boxes, rope, and hot dog packages do not pose a problem for this knife. the sheath is quiet when unsheathing the knife and is very smooth. The level of retention is fine with how light the knife is. The g10 handles feel great although when I first opened the box the handle looked uncomfortably small, but upon using the knife it was still very comfortable and easy to keep a firm grip on. For reference I wear a large glove. The only thing I did not like was the biothane loop. But after throwing it in the trash and looping an x pattern through the 4 corner holes in the sheath with paracord the set up worked flawlessly. This really is a well made knife
