Beautiful knife. Solid tool. The stippled grip is amazing. Just make sure to wear gloves when chopping away. The handle gets hot because it’s one solid piece of metal.

Good knife the right size good knife for the price

I highly recommend you get one of these Drop Forged Survivalist knives for the plain simple fact that it will last FOREVER. It is all one piece of 52100 High Carbon Steel and not as heavy as you would assume. Get one now before they're all gone.

All i can say is this is a well built beast. Its also razor sharp on arrival. Love this blade

I recently bought this knife via Amazon. Knife is very sharp right out of the box. But the sheath does not hold the knife in place when the sheath is turned upside down. My Cold Steel SRK 5 knife stays in place when I turn its sheath upside down. But the Drop Forged Survivalist sheath is not good and could be dangerous if the knife slips out.

In the pictures it looks black but is more of a blue gray in person... be aware of that. The blade is sharpened to where you can shave with it as well. However, a good chunk of the handle is metal and is possibly prone to slipping if your hands are sweaty and definitely being uncomfortable to handle in the cold, its a minor flaw and easy to fix by wrapping the handle.

The knife , I find great but the sheath , I would they dropped the ball. With the knife fully pushed in, then trying to draw it out is very awkward because of the flexing between the sheath and the belt loop. The only fix I see is to tie it off to my leg from lower part of sheath.

Great knife. Well made and sharp. However I was surprised by the blue-ish color. Not a deal breaker.

Solid,well-balanced, sharper than usual straight out of the box. Cold steel knives are usually sharp but this one, exceptionally so.

Best "Woods Knife" I own. I have many 6", 7", 8", even 9" fixed blade knives for the great outdoors. Cold Steel Drop Forged Knife is everything I need in an outdoor carry knife. The thickness I like, extremely sharp & the tip of the point is absolutely the best for thrusting & poking a hole so the silky smooth razar sharp edge glides thru anything like butter. I highly recommend this Beefy Drop Forged Survivalist Knife. You can carry this Beast with confidence if you have the will power to Survive. It will serve you well. Now, I'm not a Batonist. If you have to baton on a knife that much, just bring a hachet & carry the Drop Forge Survivalist Knife on your belt. Don't be stupid, this is not a hachet, its a knife. Use it as such. Deer Man Out
