Stainless Steel Blade, All Steel Solid Handle for Home Use, Outdoor Camping, Fishing Pocket Knife, Survival Tactical Knife, 9.5 Inch - Silver

In truth, this thing is of limited (if any) practical value, and no matter what you are trying to accomplish, there's probably a better tool for that.Still, I have to give this five stars for several reasons:1) It feels very well made. Someone put some thought into this.2) The presentation case it comes in is outstanding - you'd think it was a $1000 rollerball.3) The fit and finish are excellent.4) The blade is well designed - very thick in the back. In terms of use, it appears designed for point-and-thrust vs. cutting. Because the blade is so thick in the back, it won't flex much.5) When sheathed, it's a very sturdy single piece. No play at all.6) Overall, it's just an interesting piece.7) The price is right. For less than ten dollars, it's a deal.A few cons...1) It's a nice length - but too long to carry in any reasonable way or for any reasonable purpose.2) The blade is so thick in the back that it's not going to cut very well, if you had that in mind.3) It would be difficult to sharpen, given the blade geometry.4) Not a con, really, but it takes 13 turns to unscrew and open. That makes it strong, but hard to open.

Solid, well built and a great price. Got it to use as a letter opener at work. Love it..

The quality of the knife is good. It is sharp and fits together well.Overall I consider this a novelty product. I bought it on a whim, and I don't expect to be using it regularly.

For the price, well worth it. The blade seems a bit delicate for any serious work---other than use as a weapon. The relatively sharp tanto blade does have some weight and thickness on its back edge. And, in the closed position, the the weighted end containing the knife hilt makes it a decent small bludgeon, capable of damaging an assailant's fingers and hands. Unfortunately the two rod sections DO NOT screw together to make this a truly lethal "pocket assegai" or throwing dart. It really seemed to me that it would be well suited for that purpose. Offering additional extension rods (as extras) could, with 2 or 3 of them, make it a very credible, well balanced, portable javelin/spear. Or, in a closed position, an even more effective club. Another worthwhile extra would be attachable spike or ferrule for the opposite end in order to make it a hiking pole. Maybe a hi-tech ataltl! I better stop. I'm breaking out in a cold sweat.A serious implement with practical survival and defensive uses. And an interesting toy for the weapon psycho who thinks he has everything. The above capabilities combined with stronger, sharper blade would give it 5 stars. And even just making the 2 sections joinable would give it 4.

It’s a great value and makes a great letter opener! It’s sharp enough for my purposes. It slides right through paper.

Unique, intriguing

Extremely warped and not very sharp. Probably a good 1/4 inch warp from the handle to the tip of the blade, so much so that the tip actually scrapes the inside of the sheath when unscrewing and screwing together. For the price I expected the product to be dull, I can fix that but the warp makes me question quality control. Other than that, it's a beautiful blade and I like the weight.

The media could not be loaded. This thing is amazing, it's we sharp than I thought it was and I have big feet and look how big it is next to my hands. I have a 13-in flat and my hand is 11 in Long, this thing is also extremely balanced as far as clubs go! The knife is actually really sharp, and do the thickness of the blade makes flesh fall off besides when you pull the blade towards you. I've only used this on pork, this is my disclosure! Anyways the letter opener I thought was buying ended up being something I'll bring with me everywhere I drive my car! Excellent for personal protection!
