OERLA WS-0018 Fixed Blade Knife 7.76 Inches Full-Tang 420HC Steel Tactical Style Outdoor Camping Knife with G10 Handle and Kydex Sheath

I can't find anything to complain about. For one, I like that it's made in the USA. I like the feel of the sheath and it's durability, like a ballistic plastic. I'm sure it would be fine if it's dropped. The feel and balanced weight of the knife is great. I don't worry that I would run my fingers down the blade on impacting something, compact stop. The handle quality is also great. I really like the highly polished, surgical sharp blade, wow! BE VERY CAREFUL!!! It's sharp. You cab wear this many ways, even conceal it. Not uncomfortable either. A real beauty! I'm sure there will be folks whining about how hard it is to take out of the sheath, well... its supposed to be, So you don't lose the knife!!! It clips in nicely and you can guarantee this when you hear the SNAP, of the knife locking in the sheath. Those of you who have experience with early rigidity knows that with use, it will get a bit easier to remove. Give it time. Hope you all enjoy the review and be sure to watch the quick video and pictures I have submitted!!

This knife was sharp out of the box. It has a thick tang and blade which narrows at the edge, and to a near false edge at the spine. The handle is small, which is not a problem for me. It seems to be styled after a Japanese Kaiken dagger though with a more tactical style. The scabbard is solid with good retention and secure attachment. This is a solid, usable, reliable knife for defense, camping, even kitchen if you choose. Buy enough for.a fire team and you still won't be out much cash. Excellent.

Reason for purchase: inexpensive self defense knife Pros: easy to sharpen, sturdy, adjustable scabbard, very concealable, price, full tang, Cons: edge durability, will rust, handle is short This knife showed up sharp but was not sharp enough, easy fix. The scabarad is easy to adjust. The only complaint with the scabarad is that the belt spacer will fall out. Easy fix, super glue or epoxy. I set mine up horizontally and it is very concealable and one motion you have a usable blade from grab to pull. My hand is on the medium side and the handle is about an inch short for me to use the pommel as a glass breaker or to strike comfortably but is still doable. I don't know if this would be EDC solution for professional duties but it is a contende. I just wished that the handle was a inch longer. Surprisingly this knife is heavy as it clocks in at 6.3 oz but it is balanced well so it feels more sturdy than heavy. This blade came well oiled and had zero rust of it. It is rust resistant but the metal that this knife is from is not forgiven if neglected. The only reason I gave 4 stars overall is that 1 inch in the handle.

I really love this knife, 😍 it's the best all around knife I own at a most reasonable price. I carry it every day and it not only looks great it works extremely well.its the perfect shape and size and comes with a modern kydex sheath with a modern attaching mount that fits pretty much all size belts.it also can be carried vertically or horizontally great handle that feels good in the hand wet or dry very sharp and great looking blade best knife 🔪 for the money any ware on the web or in a box store can say enough good things about it.if your in doubt about getting it just try it out and you will see for yourself what a great knife 🔪 this is.i simply love it.

I absolutly love this knife! I got it because I can change the orientation of the sheith. I like wearing a knife on my belt, but wearing it up and down is inconvient and can get in the way of how my torso moves. Not usually a problem, but my job requires a LOT of lifting, bending, twisting ect. This knife can be oriented to lay flat along my belt, and is much less in the way. I can even wear it in the car, but it will press on my lower back if I am driving for a long time or reclining against it. The clip is easy to remove when I need to, but unlikely to come undone without the dexterity of my hands. I'm not worried about it falling off from bumping or pushing against things. I work with a lot of boxes, so I mostly use this knife to cut cardboard, tape, small cords ect. So far, it has kept its edge well and I have been very satisfied. I can't say how it would hold up to use on harder materials, but I doubt you would run into problems until you start trying to use it as a hatchet. The weight and handle are two of my favorite features. This is a solid knife, and feels good in my hand. Because of the way it sits on my belt, it is nicely unobtrusive and usually covered by my shirt. I am a pretty big person though, so it would probably be more obvious on an average size body.

Love the heft of this blade. Sharp as any knife I've ever know right out of the box. This blade is a thick solid full tang functional piece of equipment. The design fits well in the hand, the balance is extremely well received for a knife this thick and sturdy. Equally comfortable in every edge grip I've tried even Filipino, the spine is thick , the bolster has been rough patterned on the back spine to prevent slipping. This is an excellent blade for self defense and is easily conveyed and concealed. The sheath is kydex form fitted and offers a varied of carry styles via a unique open belt to closure and adjustment system. I'd recommend this knife to anyone looking for a thick defensive blade that offers a variety of carry, concealment options while looking for a serious value and great quality tool.

Truthfully the knife itself is one of my favorites. Sharp, great weight and the grip is nice in my hand. My only problem is the belt clip. Not only did it pop open, but I was riding with my husband on our motorcycle and it fell off. I didnt realize it until it was too late and lost it somewhere between home (Nw Georgia and Alabama) and destination (destination is about 2hrs away). My advice find a better design for the belt clip, especially the part that flips up and locks it into place and it will be easily top tier.
