Civivi Baklash vs Ka-Bar TDI Pocket Strike Fixed Blade Knife

Perhaps I just received a bad example of what is seemingly a great knife otherwise, but sadly I think it'll see less time in my pocket from here on out.

You want to keep control of your weapon, holding your weapon with your strong side. And yes now you really. This looks like a karambit, but that's not...

only I would recommend the G-10 handles for better grip than this particular Baklash model.

I ended up cutting and grinding my knife handle down, and cut the sheath down to make something more usable. But, for the money, there are better options.

But I have butter knives that are sharper than this blade!! I bought two, and both are equally dull and difficult to sharpen. That's a deal killer for me. I'm disappointed.

Believe it or not, the best knife I have is a Tac-Force TF-578 (a $12 knife) and the only reason I want to replace it is the clip puts the blade down in my pocket and it's not reversible.

I would return it but I'm past my 30 day window. It seems to be a good knife but if it doesn't hold an edge it's useless

You can use these rivet holes on the sides. You could put some loops on there to mount it vertically on a belt or horizontally on a belt. Retention is...

Only materials could improve, but you would have to pay way more if it was made from a higher grade steel. Can't really beat it for the cost. Great balance, opens with ease, precision manufacturing. Looks and functions like a $100+ knife

Okay, so like I said, I did all the homework on this on October 19th, 2020. It's now October 21st, 2020. So the price on this is current as of October...
