Customer Feedback:
Superb folder from the Messermeister folks. \nA beautiful green micarta that wears uniquely and very slicey sharp M690 steel. \nThe bronze thumb stud is adequate by could be larger. The clip could also have a wider end to make it easier to go into pocket. This is still a beautiful multi purpose folder. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Review Title: Beautiful, Quality Knife
Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 stars (Excellent)
Reviewer Name: Kevin M. (Verified Purchase)
Review Date: 2024-09-23
Customer Feedback:
Beautiful knife and a great feel in the hand. I have yet to give it any true tests of strength, but I have no doubt this will be nice to have for certain outdoor trips and just for general use around the yard, all while looking really high quality. Messermeister is quickly becoming a trusted brand for me in terms of both quality and aesthetics. I thought maybe this one might feel a bit too large in my pocket, as I tend to like traveling light and minimal whenever possible, but it's still surprisingly good at staying out of the way and perhaps because it doesn't have big round sides to the handle, feels slim and discreet.
