I bought this knife to replace a longer one and I'm glad I did because this one's mighty 3.5" is just fine with me. I use to to finish fish when I'm spearfishing.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 3.5" Compact BCD Knife, Point:

I am a Public Safety Diver and bought the knife as a back up for my BCD. It's very very small for a man's hand. It will only be used if I can't reach my primary cutting tools. I do not recommend this as your only knife. Otherwise, not a bad price for knife to be used for my purposes.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 3.5" Compact BCD Knife, Point:

This is a good knife to have in addition to a larger blade. I carry this attached to my BCD and a larger blunt tip blade on my calf. The knife works well for smaller jobs. The blade hasn't corroded even after several saltwater dives.

The order was processed the very next day and delivery was prompt. The product came with all the paperwork and manufacturers packaging and in perfect condition.

Useful second knife to clip to the BCD as a backup. Too small to really be a primary knife for people that need them. Very sharp. Good value.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 3.5" Compact BCD Knife, Point:

The product as a whole is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted a small BC knife to mount on my shoulder strap and it works perfect for that. I was very amazed at how well the knife secures inside the holder and that I can still remove it easily with one hand. The only problem I have with the knife is that the handle is a little to short, when holding it you can only get three fingers around the handle. I have pretty small hands and even just getting the three fingers on is tough. I like the blade length but the handle could use "at least" another 3/4". It almost feels like a kids play toy in your hands!

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 3.5" Compact BCD Knife, Point:

I'm very disappointed in this knife. the blade is fine, but the handle is way to small for anyone but a small child to handle. It almost seems "cartoon-ish" how small the handle is. This knife is too small for any adult to reasonably handle, even with bare hands.

Comments about Blue Reef Blue Reef 3.5" Compact BCD Knife, Point:

I have a larger knife, but it is uncomfotable to wear on my weightbelt so it often stays in the boat. This little knife fits nicely on my weightbelt and so I just leave it there. It is always with me, scuba or free diving, since I always wear the weightbelt. After a year of use it shows no sign of corrosion, and the blade is super sharp.
