Solid knife you can rely on
5 December 2018This is one hefty knife, nicely weighted to assist with chopping and razor sharp straight out of the box. The handle is rounder than I am used to, however it still has enough shape and plenty of grip so it won't roll in the hand, even when wet. The knife is a really great shape, definitely the widest blade I own but that appeals to me, it's a unique look. The coating is really tough, I've been batoning a lot of timber with this thing and it takes all the punishment I can give it without showing much wear. The blade is maybe a little short for batoning big stuff, but I've managed just fine. All in all a good purchase and I'd easily recommend it
