bush knife September 1, 2010 survivordude Dont buy this for the fire striker. buy it because its cheap as hell and you wont care if you lose it or break it or whatever else you can think of. i use this knife when i dont want to use a nice knife. first thing you should do if you buy this is remove the crappy string they have wrapped around it and replace it with 550 i got about 12' on mine. ditch the crap nylon sheath i made from from hardened leather. This blade holds a decent edge but it's made in china so dont rely on it to much. the plasic handle of the fire striker broke in one trip into the woods the magnesium bar its self works good enough but if you try and strike it while only holding the handle it will fall out.
Survival Knife August 30, 2010 Ashley's Rare Beauty Got this for my boyfriend. He was very happy with it. Great price! Must have for any survival kit!
Great Knife For This Price August 13, 2010 S. Sanchez (Miami, FL) I just got this knife in the mail, and am more than happy with my purchase. Mine did come with a decent edge on it. A far cry from razor sharp, but it can put a clean cut through the padded envelope it was shipped in. It's got a decent point on it too, and overall feels very solid. The cord handle that's included may not be the best, but it is sufficient and can be replaced. The fire starter works, and I appreciate the notches along the spine of the blade that work with it. The sheath doesn't inspire much confidence, but works well enough. And the finish looks a lot better in person than in the picture.
Overall, if you were to drop me in the woods, I'd rather have my Ka-Bar any day of the week. But if you gave me this instead, I certainly wouldn't complain. Considering the price, this is a great knife for an emergency/survival kit. Or if you're just on a budget. Qswords was great with shipping too.
as cheap knives go...worth it. August 8, 2010 jovial Came in the mail on time and packaged well. It's a pretty good little knife. The steel is just Chinese stainless and pretty dull out of the box. The nylon wrapping had to go. I found a couple of vids on YouTube on how to wrap a handle with 550 cord and went that route. Took me awhile but I finally got an edge on it. The case is fairly crappy but I've seen worse. Have a feeling that it wouldn't take much for the knife point to go through the case all together. But hey for a $5 knife, it's perfect as an addition to your "go" bag or to stick in you vehicle!
Bought a fire-steel... July 27, 2010 Robert Mcguire I bought a fire-steel and they threw in a knife and crappy sheath for nothin, that was nice of them. Actually I use the knife and steel as a fire starter set, use the Tanto end on the steel and nice hot sparks that sizzle nicely. I've made several fires with just the stuff you find in the woods to make fire. First thing you'll want to do when it arrives is grab your favorite shovel, go into the back yard and dig a 2 foot deep hole, remove the string from the knife and throw the string and sheath into the hole, fill hole with concrete. The knife lends it's self nicely to retro-fitting a wood or para-cord wrap handle, sheaths can be found online or at the local gun show or make one. I wrapped mine in para-cord (another reviewer gave youtube as a source to learn some cool wraps-thanks)The knife, when sharpened will prepare everything you need to start fires then use it to strike the steel to your tinder and voila, fire! The knife has a thumb grip in front of the tang that makes the difference in a knife this small. It is actually well balanced enough to successfully throw and stick. Consider buying this as part of a fire starter kit that comes with a rust proof knife/striker blank that you'll have to work on, a good chance for you to personalize something in your kit, after a Saturday morning on this bad boy I now have something that will always be with me when I'm away from civilization.
