Great knife
This a a great knife for the price. I am a commercial fisherman and use this knife every day during the season. I am also and avid salt water kayaker and carry the same knife. This knife basically lives around my neck in a salt water environment. The knife in the photo is 4 years old and is still going strong. Those complaining about rust clearly do not take care of their gear like they say they do. All steel will rust when exposed to salt water if not properly cared for. The bottle opener design was poorly thought out, but I ground the “hook” off as soon as I opened it and have had no issues. The knife can be a bit fussy to keep a razor edge on, I sharpen my knife daily so that isn’t an issue for me. However if you use it and don’t sharpen it just know getting that edge back will take a bit of time. I love the knife so much that I bought extras that I keep in my gear bag incase I lose mine overboard. Wash it, sharpen it and treat it with a light coat of mineral oil and it will hold up well.

    Picked this up to keep on me when I am teaching water rescue. Came quite sharp but a few swipes on a stone and it got up to razor level which either means it is great steel or cheaper soft steel. It seems to have held the edge so it's not super soft. The sheath is solid and keeps the knife in place though the belt clip is a little tight to get onto my leather belt and even onto the pfd straps. But it does cut rope really well and is a quick pull out which is the important part. Thankfully I have not had to use it in a emergency as of yet but it's held up being in fresh water and being dried with a towel with no rust build up.
    I would not go on a multiday backcountry paddle with it as my only knife but as a paddling emergency knife it does the job.

    Love this paddle knife! 👍👍

    The blunt tip makes a great pry bar & screwdriver - which honestly comes in handy more often than a sharp tip does. Having the serrations, rope cutter, and a 2nd tiny edge gives you so many options to cut through just about anything.

    Ended up using this as my main EDC knife recently & it takes the abuse while my secondary knife stays deadly sharp.

    I am a heavy search and rescue officer in the summer and we need knife like this one for various important tasks. I go through many knifes in a summer because we use them so much. Bought this one to see how a 40$ amazon knife differs from 180$ "army approved" knife and theres honeslty no difference! This knife is as strong and durable as my 180$ knife and in my opinion, this knife has a way nicer finish! The bright green makes it easier to spot in the dark!

    La calidad es excelente y llegó mucho antes de lo esperado hasta Coahuila Mexico.

    Great knife. Had to replace previous rescue knife as I lost the sheath so can't carry it safely any more. I do Race Committee on San Francisco Bay, working in a 16' RIB in all kinds of weather, wind, and sea-states; and we occasionally have to cut lines, including hi-tech kiting lines. The serrated blade is perfect for that, and it goes through regular synthetic ropes like butter. Good size, fits on my life vest, easy to unsheathe but always feels safe and well-secured.

    This knife has become a handy tool on my son's kayak. It has been safe and secure to use due to the knife sheath's locking mechanism, light weight and quality build. He keeps it snug on the left side of his chest for easy access. This sharp blade knife cuts through all his needs and was a good deal for the money.
