First impressions, opened the package a few hours ago and haven't cut any trees down yet. This knife feels very solid, the full tang is exposed with a 90 degree edge, just like the spine, to spark those ferro rods . The plastic handle fits my hand well, very solid but wish it was a bit more grippy like the Mora Companion. Out of the box the blade edge was not sharp, but after awhile with the wet stone it now slices paper like a razor. I'm a newbie with the Scandi edge but am liking it, after a few yooootooob videos on how to sharpen the Scandinavian edge it is easy to get very sharp.The knife snaps securely into the plastic survival sheath, no way it will fall out by accident. The belt loop looks like fake leather but feels okay. The ferro rod snaps in very securely, it won't fall out, I have to rotate it and pull to get it out, it makes sparks. The diamond sharpener is built into the sheath, haven't used it.Overall an absolutely excellent knife, well worth the $76, you should never feel guilty spending money on good knives or books.Edit:After trying and exploring things I like the diamond sharpener for sharpening the spine, this can make it very sharp for making sparks with the supplied ferro rod, or even better, your ferro rod of choice.. To sharpen and hone the blade I will use my wet stone.
