Custom Handmade D2 Steel 15.00 Inches Hunting Knife - Beautiful Rose Wood Handle (REG -1118)

Great knife

I buy a lot of knives, some inexpensive and some moderately expensive. These are the nicest I've bought at this price point. In fact you would expect the knife to be much more expensive.. The blade is beautiful, it feels so good in your hand. The handle is solid, it feel right and the fit is great. Recommend.

For the price, I wasn't expecting much, but what a surprise! First, the leather sheath is beautifully crafted of quality leather with a nicely done intricate design and heavy-duty stitching found in sheaths alone costing twice the price of this set. The knife itself came out of the package oiled and razor sharp -- repeat RAZOR SHARP! (Exercise caution when unpacking and subsequent use.) The hilt is well-balanced and has a nice thick and solid feel. The blade is polished and true with a heft simply not found in knives at this price point. A must-have for any collector or for practical camping/hunting usage.

The media could not be loaded. This is a good looking knife. My son loved it as a gift. The blade is sharp. It cut right through a cardboard box. It has a nice grip. It's a big knife, but not too heavy. The blade is not perfectly straight, but overall a good purchase.

For the price I paid I was not expecting the quality I received. The Damascus steel is beautiful and part of the handle and guard as well as the blade. The handle fits nicely in my hand and the large blade is nicely balanced by it. The accompanying leather sheath is functional but a little awkward. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase.Happy Holidays!

I bought this knife because I wanted a truly full tang coffin handled "Bowie" knife for practical purposes, and this one, with its D2 tool steel blade seemed to be the nicest of everything I've looked at. This is an excellent, very well crafted knife. A quick file test across it's spine demonstrated that the blade is indeed hardened quite well. It's definitely a fully functional, working knife! It feels very comfortable in my hands and is very well balanced. All the plunge grinds are symmetrical, and it came very sharp with nearly a mirror polished edge. In the video it is mentioned that the blade has a "false edge." Unfortunately, mine did not come with a false edge. It came with a swedge. An unsharpened suggestion of an edge on the spine of a blade is called a swedge. A sharpened edge on the spine of a blade that does not run the full length of the blade is called a false edge. To clarify, a false edge is sharpened. The handle scales are very well finished and pinned tight to the full tang, however, it did not come with the brass pins shown. Rather, it came with aluminum pins. The handle is not quite shaped like the one shown in the photos and in the video. The exposed tang sides of the handle of mine do not have the concave surfaces as shown. Rather, mine has straight surfaces. The hand guard came as advertised and rock solid with a nicely polished finish. The leather sheath was disappointing with its thin, narrow, riveted on belt loop and foam-like welt, unlike the one shown in the photos, the video, and the full YouTube video. I contacted Poshland Knives with my concerns regarding the sheath and received a promt reply. I included a description of what I expected in a leather sheath. I even asked if they could build me one and stated that I would be more than willing to pay for their services. Their reply was "We did request makers to make one new for you with better leather material.If you have any picture or specifics, please do send." So, apparently, they are building me a proper leather sheath to my specifications. For now, I believe a three star review is in order. Despite the differences in the advertised knife and the one that I received, it is fully functional, aesthetically pleasing, and I am satisfied with it as is, so I would not have deducted review stars for the discrepancies I've mentioned. However, had the leather sheath been made as advertised with a wide, strong belt loop, and a proper leather welt, I would gladly have given a five star review. Because I've contacted them and they have replied, and because of the statement on their page that reads as follows, "Poshland GUARANTEE: That item will last and and recepient will be happy. For any issue, we are always here to help," I received the knife on April 1st. I will update this review when/if the sheath issue is resolved by the seller.

This looked cool in the listing, but is so much better in person! It looks awesome - the blade is beautiful and a really cool shape, the handle is also beautiful, and it is larger than I thought it would be. The quality is amazing - I would expect something this solid and heavy to be more expensive. The sheath is really cool, and would be worth buying all by itself. I am seriously impressed by this thing.

I haven't used this product a lot just yet but, one thing to say is I put it through some tests, and it is the best knife I have ever had. If you are looking for a good and affordable knife, this is the one for you.
