Good knife for pice, but fair is fair
By TommycaiVerified Purchaser from Gulf Florida on 7/23/2008
Pros:
Comfortable Grip, Durable, Functional, Sharp Blade, Works Well With Gloves
Cons:
Starting to rust 5 dives
Best Uses:
Home, SCUBA Diving
Describe Yourself:
Beginner
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The knife is very good. I like how it has different blades on each side and a place to cut a wire in-case of running into fishing lines or whatever else someone may get tangled upon.

Great knife, but must take it apart and clean it after done in salt water. I didn't know that it would come all the way apart and it started to rust underneath the handle.

Good knife I would just recommend spraying something on it before taking it into salt water.

Decent Value, good knife
By JeffVerified Purchaser from Memphis on 6/26/2008
Pros:
Comfortable Grip, Durable, Functional, Sharp Blade, Works Well With Gloves
Describe Yourself:
Recreational Diver
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Disassembles easily for cleaning and care of SS blade...very sharp blade, decent holster / retention system. Easy to remove with or without gloves.

The rubber straps don't come close to going around my leg - I plan to grab some velcro from the hardware store and make my own strap.

There are certainly better knives, but this is a good value at this price.

Best Uses:

This is a great knife and is a nice weight. Clicks into place and has a nice feel. Only bad is I strapped this to my upper thigh only to have it fall down the entire dive even after tightening to the point of pain. Need a better design to attach it to you/the equipment.

Great price but rusts

Pros:
Comfortable Grip, Functional, Sharp Blade, Works Well With Gloves
Cons:
Poor Craftsmanship
Describe Yourself:
Advanced Diver
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Another example of how the classification "stainless" doesn't seem to mean anything these days. Unless you take this knife apart after diving and cover it in grease it rusts like crazy. You get what you pay for.

 
A great inexpensive dive knife
By BucketheadVerified Purchaser from Tamassee, SC on 1/24/2008
Pros:
Ability to disassemble, Comfortable Grip, Durable, Functional
Cons:
None
Best Uses:
SCUBA Diving
Describe Yourself:
Advanced Diver
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A good example of a great dive knife. It disassembles for cleaning after using in salt water, which eliminates the need to spend big bucks on a titanium knife. Very functional, with necessities like the line cutter, serrated edge which will cut almost anything, a blunt tip for safety, and a sheath that holds the knife securely.

I haven't been diving with this knife yet so I cant really say a whole lot about it, but from what I know abotu knives in general it seems to be a great knife for the money. I'm not sure about the plastic handle though, it does seem solid so I guess only time will tell on that part of it. All in all I'm glad I got this knife.

I have not been diving when I actually needed a knife this large; however, it is nice to have it 'just in case.' Take-down and cleaning is simple and it is very secure in the sheath. Great knife for the price!
(I have used this knife in fresh water only)

Still Rusts

Pros:
Comfortable Grip, Functional
Cons:
Rusts
Describe Yourself:
Recreational Diver
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I thought a stainless knife wouldn't rust. I learned that you do need to dry it off after each dive when I pulled the knofe and found it pitted with rust. It was a good price, and I might buy it again, but I would be sure and dry it after each dive!

Bought this knife primarily for scuba diving. Not really well balanced, and the handle isn't for people with large hands -- grip feels too small for this size knife. Okay knife for the money but would recommend spending more for better.

Light Weight, I can barely tell this is on my leg. It took me a few minutes to figure out how the straps were to be looped through the sheath. A small instruction sheet showing how to do this would be the only improvement I can suggest. Nice size. It fits my hand good the release on the sheath is located in a handy spot and it is easy to release. Great buy. Excellent product
