Tanto Knife with Sheath - 3+ Colors - 5.9" Fixed Full Tang Mirror Polished Blade - Cool Tactical Knives with Black Paracord Handle - for Hunting Camping Military Survival Hiking Work 2307 Silver

Very good fit and finish on both the knife and the sheath. Looks and feels like a high end knife. Really feels good in the hand with a good grip and good balance. Bought it as a gift and was so impressed that I almost kept it for myself. As I have been making and collecting knives for over half a century now I feel like I can definitely say that this one is worth every penny spent. Really refreshing to find something that is this nice for the cost. Thanks

This thing is awesome. I really want to put it through it's paces and see how well it performs. From inspecting it and handling it, I can honestly say you should get this if you are looking for a good tanto design but don't want to drop a $150+ on a Cold Steel Master Tanto. The balance is good, the quality of the workmanship is excellent, and the cord wrap is well-done.A small detail that I think speaks volumes to the quality of the knife is that the wrap swells on the right side of the handle. A common way to wrap a knife handle involves folding the cord as you go. This will cause one side to swell out while the other is flat. Done right, as it is on this knife, that means when you hold it in your right hand with the blade forward, the thicker part is facing into your palm and giving you a better grip.The nice thing about paracord is that it is so easy to work with. For example, if you are worried about it coming loose but want to be able to unwrap it in an emergency, you can run a lighter flame up and down the different sides of the handle and get the cord to melt just enough to stick to itself without substantially weakening it. If you don't like the way the manufacturer tied off the cord, then you can use a light to melt the area below the knot for the tassle and then cut off the knot and tassle altogether.All in all, you can't beat what you get for the price. The closest competitor in price is the Cold Steel lite Tanto but that is a much much thinner blade. This is robust, well-made, and comfortable. I definitely recommend it.

It's nice. I like it. It probably won't fully satisfy a knife collector. But it is a nice, affordable knife and a good value for the money. One reviewer said theirs was "razor sharp." The cutting edge of the one I received is a far cry from "razor sharp." But it isn't dull. I probably will eventually sharpen it further. Another reviewer complained about the weight of the knife, disappointed that it was as light as it is. It probably is lacking some heft, but with this particular knife, I wasn't looking for something heavy. I was looking for something on the lighter side: something light enough to quickly and conveniently tuck in the waistband of my sweatpants or jeans if I was just stepping outside for a minute or two, like to take out the trash or set up the sprinkler. The light weight of the knife and sheath fit the bill perfectly. So I'm happy with the weight. I bought this strictly to carry on my person as a close-quarters personal defense weapon when I am on my own property, and never to be used as a utility knife, or hunting or fishing knife, or anything else, nor kept as a collection piece. If I am lounging or exercising at home in my sweats and there's a knock at the door, I can effortlessly and thoughtlessly tuck it in the elastic band of my sweatpants and know it will hold it just fine for a couple minutes. With the bottom of my shirt easily covering what's sticking up above the waistband, I can then see who is at the door and, if I decided to answer the door, I won't alarm anyone by appearing armed. At the same time, I have a good-sized knife I don't have to open or otherwise fiddle with that's fairly secure on my person and easily drawn from the sheath. One reviewer complained about the "paracord handle," saying it was virtually just a nylon shoestring. Again, I wasn't looking for a collection piece. Just a personal defense weapon. The "paracord handle" looks minimally fine to me and seems adequately functional for a decent/good grip for personal defense. Another reviewer re-wrapped the handle in tsuka-maki fashion and provided pictures of the result and the knife now looks beautiful. It's a great idea and I plan to do the same with mine as well at some point. I paid $20. I consider it a good value for $20 and am pleased with my purchase. Out of the box, it is adequate for the stated singular purpose for which I bought it. And in the future I plan to make a better, more beautiful knife out of it by further sharpening it and learning how to do a tsuka-maki re-wrap of the handle.Reviewed: GRAND WAY polished full tang fixed tanto blade & paracord handle Japanese knife with sheath.
