## Description

Great Product

Review: Must HAVE!! - It came pretty quickly and I’ve had it for about two weeks now. It’s just as I heard it was very tough high quality spring steel. Edge hold: after plenty of stress testing it will hold its edge after contact with another piece of steel or metal! The grip is great the blade thickness is impressive the overall design is really great and it even has a bayonet feature for my military buffs overall it is a great and reliable choice for edc and it’s really really greatly priced for the quality you are receiving and I will highly recommend this over and over again if you’re looking for a good quality product at a great price or just want to add to your collection!!! And it’s a GLOCK PRODUCT!!!
Review: Coolest and best knife I've owned so far! - VERY GOOD KNIFE! Love it. Its handle is EXTREMELY durable. The saw back isn't that useful, as it's probably designed for roots specifically. Personally I have no use for it, but I absolutely LOVE this knife! It looks cool, works well, and is even a good throwing knife. The knife doesn't come very sharp, matter of fact there's only like a specific part of it that is sharp, but it doesn't matter because really it's meant for stabbing rather than slashing - you can also always just sharpen the knife. Love the product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Since glock is made in austria, is the knife as well? or is it made in china like most cheap and dissapointing knives?**
A: As a supplier to the Austrian military, Gaston Glock was making knives, shovels and ammo cans in Austria well before he made 16 prototype handguns and a 17th production model (Glock 17).  I have hard used my Glock field knife by sticking it in things you shouldn't and cutting anything in front of me.  I gave the one I purchased recently as a gift to a heavy machine mechanic.  He actually uses his harder than I have used mine.  I would compare the Glock durability to a Cold Steel product.  The fit and finish of the Glock knife is extremely utilitarian (like the pistols).  While it will not win a beauty competition it will serve you very well.  (P.S.  The shovels are even better!).

**Q: Does this knife come with a matching Glock polymer sheath?**
A: Yes, it did. The sheath holds the knife very securely. I think you will be very happy with this knife, I really like mine, like all things Glock, it is well made.

**Q: Can the knife be turned around in the sheath for left hand carry? thanks!**
A: The knife can be either right or left hand and the sheath can be worn on either side of the body.

**Q: Is the blade metal continous through the handle?**
A: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/958362-Glock-Model-81-Field-Knife-ReviewWith the uses described, it must have a metal tang inside the polymer handle clear to the pommel.  Otherwise you could not do the prying and twisting,described.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Knife!
*by M***. on December 8, 2025*

Great field knife at a great value. Very ruggedly made. It takes practice removing knife from scabbard as it locks/snaps in very securely. Which is great as it will not become dislodged. But may not be the fastest drawing knife.
