Five stars. This knife isn't just a tool; it's a lifestyle. Before, I was just a guy who occasionally went camping. Now? I'm practically Bear Grylls... if Bear Grylls spent most of his time indoors ordering takeout and sharpening his knife while watching survival shows.
This thing is built like a tank. I'm pretty sure you could use it to pry open the gates of Valhalla. The blade is so sharp, it could probably shave Sasquatch. I haven't tried, but I'm confident it could handle even the hairiest cryptid.
I tested it out in my backyard (the wilderness is a bit...overrated, frankly). It sliced through rope like it was butter, whittled a perfectly acceptable pointy stick (for...reasons), and even helped me open a particularly stubborn package of trail mix. My neighbors definitely think I'm prepping for something. They're probably right. (But it's actually just for my late night snack stash)
The grip is fantastic. I could hold onto this thing while scaling Mount Everest... or at least while vigorously shaking a can of spray paint. It feels secure in my hand, like it's whispering, "Don't worry, I got you." Which is nice, because my confidence in my own survival skills is... let's just say it's a work in progress.
It even comes with a sheath that's so tactical, it makes me want to wear cargo pants and start speaking in military jargon. I haven't done that...yet. But I did practice quick-drawing it in the mirror for a solid half-hour.
My only gripe is the price, it's a little bit expensive. I got a good black Friday sale on top of a military discount, however I feel that the final price I paid should be the normal price of the knife. Does it ACTUALLY cost $300 to make each blade?
