    Thanks for this Rotti, 'cause I have one but didn't want to post until I gave it a workout.
    In a nutshell, for the $16 on Amazon, this thing is flat out awesome. It is now my EDC at work. I wear Riggs cargo pants most days, the sheath fits in the driver pocket and clips into the upper cargo pocket like it was designed for these pants. Always a secure draw, no movement from the sheath, and great retention.
    It is sharp, but can be honed wicked sharp. I pulled a Kleenex half-way out of the box and gave it a swipe. Cut straight through where I hit it.

    This thing is very useful, will take a strike from a 2.5lb deadblow hammer in wood, cut carpet or bubble wrap equally well, cardboard, EPDM, etc. Plus it's easy to re-sharpen on my Spyderco sharpener. Note-It does not like concrete. Wife cut up come cardboard and hit concrete and blunted the tip. Took me about 10 minutes to bring the tip back to life, she'll never hear the end of it! :rofl: :lol:
    Good tool, well worth the money. :yes:
    Edit- I know the video is a bit goofy, but I understand his enthusiasm. Just not the throwing part, that's just .....Awesome that he tried with this thing!! But dumb,... dumb. ;)

    Could I get a link by chance to the one you ordered please? No where in this thread does it list the name or any info about this knife. I'm gonna order a couple for Christmas presents.
