Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is a midsized knife that handles like a small knife. Lightweight and convenient on the belt. Great sized blade and comfortable handle.

The scandinavian grind is a flame thrower with a ferro rod. The sheath is very versatile, and it engages and disengages smartly.

The cutting edge is razor sharp right out of the box. If heat treated and tempered well it can be nearly indestructible blade steel that is easy to sharpen in the field. Everything is tough as nails!

Cons

Great looking knife but the steel is not hardened properly and or the wrong steel. The sheath is absolutely horrible as well. There is absolutely zero retention and the knife literally falls right out.

Box had been opened and there was dirt in the box. My suspicions where immediately confirmed. Now to send it back.

Very well made and feels great in the hand.

The blade holds a good edge and is sturdy.

After 2 years the rubber on the handle started to separate from the plastic .

Knife sheath will dull the cutting edge and makes to much noise

Price

Over all a great product for a good price.

It's a great, american made camp knife for a great price.

If i paid closer to 100$ i would be sending both back.

But then again this knife doesn't cost $200+.

Shipping

The product shipped with missing parts so the sheath doesn't attach to the belt attachment.

It was shipped sheathed from the factory so i suspect the quality control is not really there or it slipped through qc.

So, i wanted to carry it inverted on a pack strap and it fell out at the top of bear butte in south dakota and cut a pretty mea... Read More

The sheath is good, similar to that of the stongarm, a gerber best seller.

If gerber makes a better version of the sheath - maybe in kydex or something more akin to the lmf2's sheath or, dare to dream, ... Read More
