 Good last resort knife August 19, 2010
ethiric
For this price, it is easily the best knife I have purchased. It is not a top of the line knife obviously. But it is going to do what it was designed to do well. It rides a little bit high out of my boot, but I got used to it. Arrived very sharp, sharp enough to cut with just slight pressure. As what I consider a last resort self defense knife, this is the best deal around.
 Very good knife for the price August 10, 2010

Excellent knife. The steel isn't the greatest quality, but you are paying twenty dollars or less for it. It doesn't come razor sharp out of the box but with a little work from a cheap sharpener it's getting pretty scary. The handle maneuvers very well and allows you to quickly change gripping methods. Handle material works well and provides a solid, non-slip grip. Knife is pretty well balanced, and yes, you can throw it. (just don't be an moron and throw it at a tree, it's not built for that). The sheath is what it is, alright leather with a decent clip (sheath is not very concealable, just a note). It is twenty dollar knife after all, they're making their money somewhere. I'm not going to complain much if the sheath is just ok. All in all, this is an affordable, well built blade. If you're thinking about buying it, buy it!
Great Boot Knife July 29, 2010

I have had this Boot Knife for a few months now and i have been wearing it 5 days a week every week since I purchased it. I am very surprised how well the Knife has held onto my boot. It has not slipped off once and it is very comfortable. The knife it self has a very good feel in my hand and it was fairly sharp out of the box but I sharpend it a bit more when it arrived.
The only complaint I have about this knife is the snap that holds the knife in the sheath isnt the best, but since the knife fits so well in the sheath it would never come out on its own anyway. All in all I would definitely suggest this knife to a friend or family member. Thanks again for the super fast shipping amazon!

The handle is a plastic/rubber compound, but pretty solid and well made. No fears of it slipping out of your hand.
The leather sheath serves its purpose. Its well made and fairly high quality. The snap isn't very strong. In a self defense type scenario I suppose easy release of the strap would be good. Its a small drawback, but negligable because while easy to draw the knife, it sits pretty firm in the sheath and I have no fears of it "falling out".
It's not very comfortable in my desert combat boot. But then again, I have Belleville gortex boots, and they're not very stiff to begin with. A tall leather boot or a more firm military boot might offer a little more comfort and stability. With that being said, there's no need to "conceal" this knife out here in the desert anyway. My personal favorite spot to mount it is on a strap on my drop leg holster I use for my M9. The clip on the sheath is kind of wide, but it fits into a loop of my IOTV (improved outer tactical vest) pretty easy.
Maybe some people got a super sharp knife, and maybe some people have extremely easy-to-shave arm hair, but this knife is NOT razor sharp out of the box. Don't get me wrong, It's still fairly sharp and it will still cut you. As with any knife, you should always practice safe handling procedures. Just dont' expect to be splitting hairs without working on the edge(s) a bit.
All in all, you can't beat the price. Comparable knives go for $50-$100, and I picked this one up through Amazon for $16 and some change. Its a solid knife and gives me comfort to have 1 more quality tool I can count on to defend myself with, or feild dress a cute little bunny for dinner if I'm in a survival situation. Plus it just looks cool :)
