SZCO Supplies 9" Wood Handle Boot Knife with Stainless Steel Blade, Brass Guard, Pommel, and Clip-On Sheath - Tactical and Everyday Carry

These knives seem to be crafted by amateurs, but I support amateur craftsmen. The blade needs sharpening and reshaping, but it arrived tightly fitted. The materials used are adequate quality and with some effort this can be made into a good lightweight knife for the money. How sturdy is this knife? The blade is 3 millimeters thick and has a rat tail tang.

Like most people that ordered this knife I was not impressed. The tip was broken off and the blade was very dull. Unfortunately I did not read the reviews before I ordered it. The pommel guard was chipped around the blade. If I can find the time I will have to spend a couple hours straightening, and grinding this butter knife into something that might pass as some kind of weapon. This knife is a piece of garbage.

Just fine for the price. It is made crooked, the handle is a bit loose, and I had to put a whole new edge on both sides. The sheath works well-stays put on your boot over as many miles as you can walk. I bought this for a cheap boot knife for hiking. You can abuse it all you want and not feel bad. It is a good size for me and the grip is comfortable. The price is right.

This knife is made of mostly natural materials (Brass, Oak, and Steel). They are cheap materials not well refined. The blade is set crooked in the handle and the tang is loose. The color of the handle is unfinished. Just overall a very amateur knife build. But I will give them the benefit of the doubt and say the materials seem to be good just poorly assembled and made.

Obviously cheap and substandard quality, but that is what you pay for. Knife...dull, and with the few sharpening marks obvious. I finished the job on my whetstone. Handle is unfinished. the sheath is very poor. The snap at the top was assembled in reverse, hence unusable. For workaday chores, prying and such, for the money, usable but just.

Cheap, bends easily, will not take or hold an edge, there is practically no tang, sheath clip is class may and cheap. But it will do what it's made for I guess. If you want a neat conversation piece that is cool to look at, this is for you. If you actually want an affordable boot knife to carry, look at Smith and Wesson's boot knives. Overall you get what you pay for. What more could you want for an $8 boot knife.

Perfect I'm In The SCA dagger!

SOFT blade! Handle is lopsided. Blade is not centered in handle. The worst fit and finish I have seen. I'm not returning the knife because I'm seeing what improvements I can make to it, So far not much improvement. I'll update. Update 1: I sanded the knife with 500 grit paper and stained the handle. The handle and brass look a lot better. The blade is very soft so it is easy to work on. I'm going to polish the blade and see if there is enough metal to improve the profile. Update 2: I reprofiled the blade the best I could but it still looks rough. Polishing only made the defects more obvious so I'm now thinking about painting the blade black with krinkle paint. A unique letter opener? Still can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear! Update 3: I worked on the handle and guard and it is now easier to hold. I added epoxy to the blade tang where it attaches to the guard. The epoxy has stiffened the blade a bit. I'm thinking bright red paint for visibility and using this in the garage for light tasks. Update 4: I Added more epoxy to the tang (on both sides) and made a "trail" of epoxy half way up the center of the blade (again on both sides). The blade does not move at all now. I have some bright red, extra high gloss, spray paint and will paint the entire knife for visibility and use the knife in the garage.

Gostei muito da faca. Recomendo muito

Excelente daga, por el precio me siento sumamente satisfecho, buen material de la hoja y el mango de madera, lo cual me gusta todavia mas por que puede tallar o personalizar, sin duda alguna voy a comprar otra. Muchas gracias.

I bought this knife because it reminded me of a knife I had as a kid. I was actually kind of excited to see if it was a similar ad the picture showed. I can't show pictures of all the issues because I worked on this knife almost as I unpacked it. It's really low quality...I know the price reflects that but I mean it's *really* low quality. The handle was tan colored with dents and crazy irregularities, the end cap was peen on and ground fairly smooth but on about a 14 degree angle off center, the plunge lines are all over the place, the guard was left unfinished with sharp angles and doesn't line up with the ricasso, the grind lines are so bad that I'm sure a blind monkey must of done them. That is mostly asthetic but the blade itself is ultra thin and mild steel. I can file every part of it with my wood rasp...I don't even need a metal file. I'm keeping this thing as an example of what a very poorly made knife looks like. I fixed it up a bit, but I'm not polishing it at all, it'd lose to much material. I cut off the useless tab clasps and added leather to the oversized "leather" case in 2 places along with a thin magnet. Now after staining it, it's at least useable for opening letters.

It's better then I expected for 10 bucks. Like other reviews have stated. Not sharp at all. Have a hell of a time sharpening it. But appearance is good. Wouldn't take hunting or camping. But cheap enough to throw and wreck.
