Review: Better than the KA-BAR version - So I bought the KA-BAR and the Veepeey brand copycat, first off let's re-establish specs, because NEITHER company was accurate and this caused me to have to buy both in the first place to figure it out myself. KABAR: Weight: 117.95 grams ; Length 16 cm long, 5.4 cm wide at head(5.7cm w/ clip) Veepeey: Weight: 135.67 grams ; Length: 17 cm long, 5 cm wide at head(5.5 cm w/ clip) Other than that they are functionally the same except for how the screwtop functions and finish. Both have holes predrilled for lanyard and boast a rubber O-Ring. One could say that the Veepeey has a better grip due to having both vertical and horizontal lines. Finally, the Veepeey has a little hook below your line. The shelf on the Veepeey is larger so it's probably easier to quickly get your line off with the Ka-Bar but I havent taken them out yet to test that. The KA-BAR weighs less but the Veepeey is also noticeably longer, so the tradeoff is weight, size VS storage, longer grip. Screwtop: VEEPEEY WINS This was the deciding factor for me on which one to keep and which one to send back. The screw top of the KA-BAR is just too prone to easily coming off. I measured the Veepeey at having THREE full rotations before it can come off; on the other hand the KA-BAR only took a quarter of a SINGLE rotation before it could just fly off, nice for accessing the inside quickly, bad for functionality of it's job. I would say I'd prefer the Veepeey to only be 2 full rotations but I do like knowing that it's very secure and I wont have to worry about it breaking or becoming looser with time. QUALITY: VEEPEEY WINS The Veepeey wins out on quality/finish; the Ka-bar at first appearance was more polished but it had major defects when it came to comfort, I bought 2 Ka-Bar's and both of them were not sanded down around the rim just below the head where your hand/fingers would be resting on AND the mold seems were not sanded down well either across the entirety, you could fix this yourself by taking a file to it but I'm severely dissapointed that while they polished it better than the Veepeey, Veepeey at least thought of sanding everything smooth, which also matters a lot because I feel like the mold seem could be abrasive on your line. Grip: VEEPEEY WINS The Veepeey has both horizontal and vertical lines while the Ka-Bar only has horizontal, functionally this means you should have a better grip with the Veepeey. I will say I feel like the Veepeey digs into my palm but I think that's from where the horizontal and vertical lines edges meet, I like the feel of the Ka-Bar more BUT once again the poor filing of the mold lines and the spot just below the shelf of the head where your index and thumb sit on the KA-BAR holds it back from claiming a comfort win over the Veepeey. I think if you take a file and round the edges of the Veepeey where the corners of the horizontal and vertical lines meet a little bit more then that will fix that issue and firmly place the Veepeey over the Ka-Bar again. Alternatively, the Veepeey having a slightly longer grip allows for more than 1 hand more comfortably. COST: I think it's unacceptable that KA-BAR allowed a (probably) chinese no-name copycat to make a better product and yet charge 14% more. ($14.59 vs $16.85) OTHER: The Veepeey came with a mesh bag and a lanyard, both are kinda garbage but Ka-Bar didnt come with either. OVERALL: The Veepeey excelled in all categories over the Ka-Bar except in weight and size which is unacceptable considering neither is very far apart and you could make the argument that the Veepeey allows for more storage, even if you're counting grams I think you should consider the Veepeey over the Ka-bar because what good is a kaster if the top pops off and you lose it, I think this would be closer if Ka-Bar lived up to their name reputation(I'm a USMC veteran, Sergeant of 8 years and expected more of Ka-Bar since they are famous for their USMC knives in the Corps) and sanded down their product smoothly and had a cap that didnt feel like I was going to lose it. I included pictures. Seemed one reviewer thought the same about the cap seeming to be too loose on the KA-BAR. ALL IN ALL GET THIS PRODUCT!!!
Review: Super sturdy - great product - This thing is made of very strong plastic, is super sturdy, and has enough storage inside the handle and spool for enough terminal tackle to make you able to fish for a a while. Small bobbers, sinkers, swivels, hooks and plastics all fit. It's a compact fishing kit that's always ready to go. Highly recommended for bug-out bags, backpacking, anyplace you want to fish but don't want to lug a bunch of gear. Search YouTube for "handline fishing" and you'll find videos where these or things just like them are used, and they catch fish plenty well. They're not made to catch 44" muskies, but on normal panfish, bass, and trout, these work great, and can bring in bigger fish if you fight them right and/or have heavy enough line.

## Features

- 🎣Enjoy Fishing Time - Our emergency fishing kit is very light and easy to use, both adults and children can use the backpacking fishing rod. And whether you go traveling, camping, hiking, and other survival/bugout activities, or with your family and friends on a leisurely outdoor fishing trip, all can relax, exercise, and closer to nature.
- 🎣Premium Quality - Good survival fishing gear is the foundation of your entire angling setup, quality is the most key. This emergency fishing kit is made of nylon, very tough and durable, and can withstand the weight of large fish, even if it is accidentally dropped to the ground, there will be no damage， please buy with confidence.
- 🎣Excellent Design - The survival fishing rod consists of three main parts. First, the head of the pocket fisherman adopts rotary thread density, which can tighten the bottle mouth and will not fall off easily. Second, there will also be a plastic clip to hold the line in place when not in use. Third, the extended fishing pole handle has a hollow storage box for small items such as baits.
- 🎣More Convenient to Use - We have designed a small hook on the head of the survival fishing kit for easy winding of the fishing line. At the same time, we extend the handle length to accommodate the width of more people's palms, so that your hand can better hold the backpack fishing rod and catch more fish.
- 🎣Extra Gift - We provide one storage bag and one lanyard for your convenience. You can use this lanyard to wrap around your hand when you fish, so you can prevent the mini fishing pole from falling into the water. And can help you carry and store it well, you can put the portable fishing caster into a backpack to carry with you, or use the lanyard and net bag to hang in your convenient place, so you can come on a fishing trip on the go.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super sturdy - great product
*by L***E on September 5, 2025*

Small bobbers, sinkers, swivels, hooks and plastics all fit. It's a compact fishing kit that's always ready to go.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Product but Should be Cheaper
*by D***N on October 3, 2025*

I would give this 5 stars but honestly, I think it is overpriced and had a couple issues. This thing is just a plastic molded handle with a screw top that has no accessories/tackle with it. For $20+ you can get a real collapsable fishing pole with an actual reel. And those sets often come with a small bit of starter tackle. That said I bought this due to the fact there is nothing to break, with the exception of the little hook they proudly advertise as a unique convenience for spooling your line. But in my opinion, it is just an annoyance. First it is quite small and would easily break with any stress on it. Second it is just in the way. When spooling the line, you have to take care to avoid getting the line under that hook as it will totally snag the line if you are trying to let the fish run. And when you reel a fish in the same thing applies, you need to avoid that hook like the plague or you will get a snag, and the line will snap when a big fish runs. On a regular reel you generally just tie a loop around the spool or use a small piece of tape to hold the line when you start spooling. So, the hook really is not needed and, in my opinion, is nothing but a hazard to your line. The handle is plenty long enough even for my beefy hands and it has good grip. But it is ovoid not round, so the handle does not hold even a small round bobber. Probably holds a cigar style bobber but that is not my preference. But even as an ovoid I can get two spools of hand/runner line in there, a set of instructions for tying knots, and a small bag of tackle with hooks, soft baits, etc. The spool also holds a good deal of line. I can't give you an exact measure, but I know I got at least 150 feet of 12lb test on it. And while I can't say I have used it, I watched a review of this exact item on YouTube where the guy caught a bluegill for bait then used that and some cooked shrimp to catch a huge fish at least 18 inches and 7 or 8 lbs. Was a long fight, but he landed it. So, this is certainly an effective hand line tooI. I just think it should be cheaper given what it is and also feel the hook is a bad desing idea.
