Oerla TAC OLX-004 Gentleman Tanto Fixed Blade Outdoor Duty Straight Knife

These knives are very sharp and durable. I have most of them and believe it is a good value at the price point. They are a bit heavy ,

Very happy with this purchase and my current favorite household knife. I've been on a bit of a knife collecting bend (5+ in last few months) and this is the winner. The weight is great, the blade is exceptionally sharp, and I love the Tanto shape, as it creates a sharp point while still having aesthetically pleasing sheer lines. I can slip the tip into heavy packaging/plastic/cardboard/tape and cut without having to worry that the blade will bend/break (although please never pry with your knife!). Included plastic sheath is quite durable, although plastic is never particularly satisfying, the lock-in-place mechanism is as good as I could expect, and I expect it to be able to endure a reasonable amount of abuse. Most importantly it's sharp as hell and nice to look at.

This is a phenomenal knife. It’s super sharp and durable, with a great kydex sheath. An excellent design and value. I don’t need a custom USA knife at a ridiculously high price. I’ll be buying another one of these.

As described! Feels like solid craftmanship with good weight. In terms of balance, it's a tad heavy on the hilt side, but it feels very solid and arrived sharp! The ergonomics are comfortable (not too small or large of a grip). The adjustable belt mount was a plus, as I wanted to try wearing it horizontal vs vertical. As some other reviews have described, the plastic belt mount feels like it could be easily warped or broken, but I will use it for camping this summer and update with more details as needed (durability and sharpness etc). I also ordered the attachable ferro rod fire-starter, which was easy to install in a few different ways. https://amzn.to/3UR7VRs

I was looking for a knife for my battle belt set-up. Everything I was seeing suggested was in the $150-$250 range. I have no intentions of going into combat, so I don't need to spend that kind of cash for something to wear to the range or the field. I started looking around and found these here on Amazon. Reviews were good. Price was great. And the pictures looked fantastic. So ordered one just to check them out. These things are fantastic. The weight is just heavy enough to not feel like a toy. The grips are nice and contoured with just enough grip. And the kydex sheath is made so that it snaps in and locks in place with ease. I love that they come in a nice box with foam padding and even has instructions on how to draw it easier and with less wear. Easy to swap from vertical to horizontal mounting as well as adjusting for different belt widths. Overall, well worth the money. Ordering a couple of other designs soon.

My review is limited since I've only had the knife a week or so. My first impression (and those are usually the best) is the knife is a high quality knife for a very affordable price. The first thing I noticed was the sharpness out of the box. it was ultra sharp to point of being dangerous. The steel is 420HC (cryogenic temper) so do your own research on that. I think you will find its more than acceptable for regular use in the field. The handle is a material called G10 (fiberglass cloth) and is durable beyond a lifetime if not abused. It is not affected by blood or water and requires no special care. It's found in aerospace applications as well as military. The blade is stonewash. Some people like that some don't. I don't care either way. The balance of the knife is perfect and is slightly handle heavy which give you more control. The blade is long enough with a tanto design (Japanese origin) and is good for puncturing, The spine is flat on top all the way down to the point (which is needle sharp). Full tang with glass breaker designed at the base. One year warranty on product. Only drawback I see is the sheath which when worn in horizontal position is floppy. Wear it vertically and no problem. Overall good knife, great quality and great price. You will not be disappointed.

Love it. Nice weight, nice sheath, very nice blade. Heavy and we'll built. Razor sharp!!

Thick blade, extremely sharp, and comfortable to use for both the kitchen and a fight.
