Pros & Cons
Pros
Ka-bar short tanto knife is a good quality, fairly sturdy knife. Great blade as always from ka-bar. Sheath is good but would recommend the hard plastic sheath.
Good side comes to the tip with a two grinde taper. Sharpens up to a razor sharp edge. Takes a good edge. Well made and handles well.
One side of the blade is beautiful. It makes tinder from branches quick and easy. The proof is in the pudding. This makes an excellent woods companion to a hatchet or machete.

Cons
The knife barely even fits in it. Maybe should be marketed to women.
