Decent utility or bushcraft knife

Posted by Adrian on 3rd Mar 2024

Bought this attracted by the £29.95 price and have had a few Gerbers and liked them all. Bought despite the sheath as planned to use this to learn how to make a kydex sheath - which I did and I'm very pleased with it for a first attempt. Cost about £20 to £25 for bits so actually might have been better buying a more expensive knife already with a kydex sheath but it was a learning experience. Pretty sharp out of the box but I noticed a slight roll and small nick in the edge after making my sheath - might have been caused by me although blade was taped for most of the time. Roll sharpened out - slight nick still there for now. I've got it for field archery so digging arrows out of trees/wood and general tasks like clearing branches. I like the blade depth and thickness - feels robust although a tested to destruction video on youtube by some clown in a respirator shows it can't stab a car door for sh1t and will snap if you hammer it into a log with a breeze block and then smash it sideways...not what I'm planning to do though. As always age verification and postage from HH brilliant.
