Notes - Jeff Randall and Mike Perrin designed this knife not via a committee or with profit solely in mind, but because their experience and practical application of knives in the real world showed them what a knife should do.
Similar in length to many military models, the 6.5-inch drop-point blade is a larger knife, but still compact enough to be an everyday-carry (EDC) tool. The beveled edges on the Micarta handle provide a comfortable grip without feeling clunky, and the finger groove is deep and well defined. The exposed tang past the rounded pommel, with a hole to fit a lanyard, can double as a hammer. On the business end, the full flat grind creates a laser-like edge and a sharp, narrow point. The jimping on the spine allows for the thumb to help steady the knife during fine cutting or rapid slicing.

Pros:

• Excellent balance at the hilt
• Exposed tang at the pommel for hammering
• No-questions-asked lifetime warranty
• Beautiful color combination

Cons:

• The plastic sheath might not hold up as long as the knife (but it does have paracord holes and is ambidextrous). Some assembly required.
• Blade can rust without proper maintenance
• At more than two bills, it's an investment
