The knife is high quality and very sharp, I use it all the time. Th only issue is the sheath, it doesn’t seem to make much sense, it is bulky, and the whistle is useless, that is the only let-down. Besides that it is very good.

For the price this isn’t a bad knife. I will warn you that it arrives dull as a butter knife. I spent about 20 minutes running mine through a sharpener and it came out ok. It is stamped made in China, somewhat disappointing.
The serrated grips work well and the blade seems sturdy. It does what a tanto blade should, it punches through things.

I like the knife a lot, it’s solidly constructed and small enough for concealment. The sheath is plastic and has a whistle on one end, making it longer than necessary. I really don’t know why someone would hang this on their neck, though. I’ve had neck knives that I’ve worn like a shoulder holster, but the lanyard is not big enough to do the same for this one. I wish the plastic sheath had a clip on it, but I’m probably going to saw down the sheath and attach a clip.

This knife is light enough to wear, and sharp enough to handle a situation. I love the whistle that’s incorporated into the sheath. Great idea. Easy to hide under a sweatshirt or jacket. Great for walks, etc.
