It's not typical these days to come across a quality product for a beyond fair price. If you're shopping for your first knife, a reliable option to leave in the pocket, a gift, whatever it may be, this is the one. Bought this back in 2021 when I started working my first job out of school, it was my first knife. And if I didn't drop it in a stream while working this past summer I would've still been using it. Comes super sharp, but keep it sharpened with a block and it'll cut through just about anything you need it to. Cardboard, rope, wood, fabrics, and others. To keep things PG, I had it doing field dissections on fish this summer and it cut clean right through the stomachs. Broke my heart to lose it the way I did, but am fortunate to buy my second one now at pretty much the same price I bought it at 5 years ago. This is the only amazon review I've ever left on a product, but it is hands down the only product from amazon I have thats worked the same since the day I first bought it. Keep it clean, keep it sharp, keep it secured to your belt/pocket, and you'll have a partner for life.
