## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the blade hold a good edge?**

Any problems, please feel free to contact us. We will reply to you in 24 hours.

**Q: Where is it made**
A: Made in China.  Hence, the very affordable price.

**Q: Is this 
a good self defense combat knife?**
A: This is a very good quality knife. I’m not sure if I would clash this as a good self defense knife. The reason is because it’s so large. It’s more of a small Bowie knife. Extremely razor sharp though. And it keeps a good quality age if you use the correct sharpener. For hunting it would be a great knife to have. I carry it when I go hunting myself.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sweet Knife
*by N***Z on May 18, 2025*

Love this knife

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality budget knife
*by V***G on May 9, 2021*

Smooth sturdy leather sheath. Therefore, nothing sticks to it. Long good looking blade. Sturdy, thick hand guard. Smooth, no gap at every seam on the knife. Extremely comfortable , wooden handle. I have medium size hands. Knife feels heavy in the back end, to me, that is not a negative. For that reason, it just feels different, compare to most knives. Again, that is not a negative. 440 steel was the most premium steel in the past, so don’t be a steel snob for the wrong reason. Thick, long blade is perfect for every tasks. Price is too cheap to be true. I don’t use my knives much. I am sure this knife can endure all tasks, from light duty to ruggedness abuse. It is a true full tang knife. Sure it doesn’t have brand recognition or prestige, but you will save hundreds of dollars comparing to knives of this quality. Nothing to complain about the knife.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's a keeper, I love it !
*by D***N on July 18, 2023*

Arrived on time as promised, well packaged and in perfect condition. No damage to packaging or internal case and Knife was beautiful. Internal case was excellent! Knife comes wrapped in plastic as does the sheath. I wanted to mention here, the Sheath is (Real Leather) not synthetic junk, its is infact "real Cow Hide" and the craftsmanship of the sheath is worth as much as the knife itself. This knife was brought to public attention for being among the best: May 9, 2023 Miami Hearld. "Cut Meat Perfectly in the Wild With the Best Hunting Knives" and that’s what sold me on this knife.ISSUES FOUND OUT OF THE BOX:This is a beautiful knife but just taking it of the box I found immediate Minor issues with the craftsmanship. Mind you they can be fixed if you know how and what you're doing.I own these photos, they DO NOT belong to anyone else on the World Wide Web.Also want to mention, No the knife is not dirty it comes with a film to protect the metal when not in use. Mild soap and warm water with soft rag old Tee-shirt will remove the film or even rubbing alcohol if you choose.DO NOT use a steel wool or copper scrubbing pads as this will ruin the metal finished appearance.THE BLADE:Out of the box not the sharpest edge, just needs a couple minutes with a quality stone....Please take warning, it's certainly NOT dull out of the box handle with care and respect.OVERALL HANDLE:Notice the steel is outside the lines of the real wood handles. Those edges are not polished!!! That is raw steel and it can and will cut you so be careful handling this knife without gloves! Mind you it is fixable with a “special craft file” and a polish wheel. --See handle PhotosCUTLERY RIVETS IN THE HANDLE:There are three cutlery rivets in the handle and they too should be polished down to the wood not sharp edges. Be careful, they have raw edges slightly above the wood --See handle PhotosWHAT IS THE BLADE MADE OF:440C stainless steel is a high carbon martensitic stainless steel.
