I have ordered several engraved knives from this company as departing gifts for soldiers moving on to their next assignment, and they have always been a big hit. The quality is excellent, the engraving looks great, and each knife feels like a meaningful and personal gift. Their customer service has also been exceptional every time—helpful, responsive, and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.
Good quality knife, it made a good gift :)
As Crocodile Dundee famously said in the movie. D2 is a good steel. The knife has a good finish. The handle is attractive and fills my hand. Why pay a premium for powdered metal when D2 is fully serviceable? No complaints. I am less impressed with the sheath. It does not appear to be full-grain and has a decorative piece of very thin split leather stitched to the front. I am not a fan of safety straps on most knife sheaths because they prevent the knife from being quickly returned to the sheath. You have to move the strap out of the way to prevent slicing it off. Unless you are doing gymnastics, a 10" blade is not going to fall out of a sheath without a safety strap. But, overall, this is a good value and I am pleased with it.
I was hoping the knife would be a little sharper when it arrived. Also, I'm sure it's necessary, but why is it so greasy when it arrives. Otherwise, beautiful knife.
