Grand Way Survival Hunting Knife with Sheath - 6.5" Fixed Full Tang Serrated Blade - Long Blade Knives with Rubber Handle - for Tactical Camping Military Hiking Bushcraft Outdoor Work EDC 2503

Excellent knife, especially at this price point. 440C steel, no crossguard, fuller (blood groove) center of the blade both sides, and a Kraton-like grip. Very good edge out of the box, but with some work with the 1500, 2000, 3000 grit stones and then finish with a leather strop you can get it shaving sharp. Didn't take long either.These are made in Charkov, Ukraine (SLAVA UKRAINI!) and NOT China. They're touted as a camping/survival knife but their design is more of that of a 'stick it in the bad guy's spleen' type of knife.Comes with a decent black nylon sheath. At this price point, why not get two?Highly recommend!

When people were like no guard and can't baton like a survival knife but wanted a double edge to see if I would like it but thought it would be a wonderful beast as a camping cooking knife. Sharpening cooking sticks, cutting package wrappers, and trimming up all types of meat. This would be a great tool for that type of work.

This is a clone of the old SOG Desert Dagger without the guard and an economy sheath. It's probably made in the same factory with at least the same tooling. Steel is ok, doesn't roll or chip easy so it might be 440C, which makes this dagger an excellent buy. The sheath is functional enough.The lack of a guard detracts from the knife and makes it unsafe from it's main function, but it's still a 4 star knife. This is a razor sharp fighting knife along the lines of a Gerber Mark II or an Applegate Fairbairn. Putting a guard on the hilt wouldn't be so hard: one would simply remove the handle from the tang and slide guard on and then put the handle back on. It needs a guard. Because this knife is so sharp it should only be used as is with slash proof gloves if used for its intended purpose.This is a waste as a hunting or fishing knife. This dagger isn't for bushcraft. Only ignorant children throw knives. But as a fighting blade this would do it.It needs a guard.Getting a guard fabricated and put on it would run $20 - $30. A decent sheath would run another $30 - $40. But what you would be left with would be equivalent to a Gerber Mark II. This knife is made of decent materials, the grind is adequate enough, the factory edge as is will get the job done. Trying to pry anything with this knife or roughly abuse it isn't the best idea, just as doing so with a Gerber isn't a great idea. Both will lose the tip and break. But if this is your last line of defense and you're competent in the use of a fighting knife, you'll be adequately served.Does everyone need a fighting knife? No. Especially not children.Is it a good idea to stock up on a quality knife, as a last ditch or beater, when they are available and you know how to use this type of knife? Maybe.It seems a lot of old, big name discontinued knives are now being manufactured with generic names (or cloned) and being made available to the public at bargain prices. There is a reason why these knives were discontinued: lack of market or change in tastes. Other established knives are still in production but being cloned. Clones are viable, working alternatives to knives others only buy to stash away and never use.

A good 440C steel knife. Came sharp and well made.

not sure why it has survival in the name since it is just the knife and sheath. it comes sharp out of the box but i changed the angle and resharpened it so it just slides thru paper like its not even there. i dont know how long it will keep an edge since i dont usually use my knives as a tool but im very satisfied with it

It is a well built knife with a sleek design, you can buy this one with confidence, it feels very durable and it’s very cool looking. For what it cost it’s 100% worth buying.

Not very durable but then again, it's low cost. Guardless style is very unusual, and really makes it easy to cut yourself. It is truly double edged. The option to customize is cool. Hey -15 bucks? OK, yeah, it's not gonna be awesome. Grip area is rubbery grippy. Sheath is weak but, again, 15 bucks... A cheap dagger that will sharpen reasonably. Not for prying or hammering at all or It Will Break For Sure. Three stars only cause it's a low quality knife. Mora manages to make a world class 15 dollar knife so this one is a three star. Get it cause it's cool and unusual but not because it's any good.

I'd buy one again
