(More customer reviews)So, I looked at this knife, read the reviews, and made the purchase. I didn't expect a hundred dollar knife, but I also didn't expect a piece of crap either. This thing won't cut cotton twine! I used it to cut through some plant roots in some potted plants. The finish wore off after inserting it into the root ball about two dozen times. And, I had to struggle to make it go through the potting soil, and baby, thread-like plant roots. "SURVIVAL KNIFE"? Yeah, if your stuck in a tub of soft butter, it might help you to cut your way out.
I've read that if one puts a new edge on the knife, it will work better. I'm not much good at that sort of thing, but I may try to find someone who can do it for me. I'll give the knife another chance after it gets PROPERLY sharpened. Don't think for a minute, that the factory grind they put on this thing has a sharp edge. You will hurt yourself trying to cut anything.
Remember - it looks real cool, but it isn't much good for any cutting right out of the box. And, don't expect it to remain looking cool, if you actually intend to use to in the field.
If it actually can get, and maintain a good edge, I will amend my opinion. But, for now, even at 23 bucks, I think everyone is throwing away their money.
