Review: Sweet knife for a sweet price - With a name like Smith and Wesson behind it, I had high hopes but the price gave me some doubts. Showed up in a very plain box and this is not made by S&W, it's produced "under license" by some other company. Haven't bothered to research it much further and not sure if it matters to be honest. It's probably made in China or some other Asian country, but personally I'm not a made in America snob so whatever... However the quality is impressive, shows up very sharp and it feels really good in your hands. Also the sheath was the most surprising part of the deal, it's a really good sheath! Not like the crappy nylon ones that come with all the uber cheap knives. Well constructed and will hold up to extended abuse no doubt. Has a little sharpening stone also, already used it to sharpen one of my cheap chinese beater knives and works well. I wouldn't feel the least bit un-prepared if this were the only knife I owned. Great deal! Review: Good value, good quality - I received this knife as a gift for Xmas (although I wasn't surprised, because I asked for it). It has a good feel to it in your hand, and feels solid. VERY IMPORTANT: The pictures of two knife models are switched around. This knife is CKSUR1, but the picture above is actually the CKSUR2 (if you want to see the picture of THIS knife, the CKSUR1, go to the CKSUR2 page). Luckily one other reviewer noted this and I was prepared for it, but I can't believe more people haven't noted this in their reviews, and that it took so long for somebody to mention it; it's a very different shape. Based on the other reviews, I expected it to come out of the box very sharp, but mine was so dull I couldn't even cut paper without it just tearing instead. After some sharpening with the included stone, it was great. I really like the back edge, even though it's designed not to be very sharp. The sheath also has a good quality feel to it, and the knife fits well. All in all, this knife is a very good price for its quality, and I would recommend it to anyone as a very reliable starter or backup knife. ## Features - DIMENSIONS: 10.5 inch (26.7 cm) overall length with a blade length of 6 inches (15.3 cm) and a weight of 7.4 ounces - DURABLE: Blade is made of reliable 7Cr17MoV High Carbon, Black Oxide Stainless Steel with a black, deep grooved, rubber wrapped aluminum handle - DEPENDABLE: Quick and easy access with the convenient ballistic polyester sheath with a removable storage pouch and sharpening steel - SECURE: Have confidence that the blade will not slip with the security of the hand guard - BE PREPARED: Features Lanyard For Easy Carry - GUARANTEED: This product is covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Meaning that you can’t see the tang, even though it is the full length of the handle. A “full tang” knife you would still be able to see the tang. The handles would be slabs(scales ) that would fit on either side of the tang. **Q: Dose this knife come with diamond stone** A: Mine came with a stone( looks like the cheap diamond ones not 100% if it’s actually diamond) but it was bent :( others seemed happy with thieves so it could be a one time thing but I would recommend getting a separate stone if you actually want to sharpen anything **Q: is this the 440 steel or the 7Cr17 High Carbon Stainless steel?** A: It say it is 440 stainless. This is a really nice survival knife holds edge really well. **Q: what is the string for on the sheath?** A: The string is for fastening the knife/sheath to either the shoulder strap of a rucksack or to the thigh depending upon how you decide to wear the knife. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sweet knife for a sweet price *by A***R on October 13, 2012* With a name like Smith and Wesson behind it, I had high hopes but the price gave me some doubts.

I was expecting to use it in the field during camping and hiking, which I did, and it held up up until this past weekend. First off the sheath. VERY NICE! I like it a lot. With the plastic lining inside it'll last even longer because it won't cut away the fabric of the sheath itself like some Gerbers. Held a somewhat useful grind stone on the outside and all. I really like it. The knife is very appealing to the eye. Resembles the Ka-Bar older brother very much so. Handle is great. Really good weight. The only gripe is the hand guard. It was kind of loose and made a rattling sound sometimes and was loose if you tried to move it with your hand, but it held in place as it should've. The edge could've been sharper on the other hand, but it did the trick for 90% of the time, so no complaints. Now the durability. I used the knife of course to shave branches, bark off logs, and even hacked away and a few branches about 5" to 6" in circumfrance, worked up until this weekend when I was trying to hack at really dried up old wood and the blade went flying off in the middle of the night. Had to search for it with my head lamp and it clean broke off where the handle met the blade. I did use it a little to poke around and move wood for the fire while it was burning, but not enough where I think it would actually weaken the integrity of the blade. I used it previously on another camping trip and did the same things with it and it survived. So it literally lasted two camping trips only. I called it my bitch knife just because it did whatever I wanted it to, and it did it with no problems. Would I get it again? Maybe not, but for a starter knife with light to medium use it'll last a while and a good buy. I'd give it a 3.5 or a 4 max in rating. ## Frequently Bought Together - Smith & Wesson CKSUR1 10.5in High Carbon S.S.
