Cold Steel Drop Forged vs Smith & Wesson Boot Knife Fixed Blade Flat Dark Earth

What's up everybody welcome back to another video here at getting his tactical, I'm Erin, I'm your host out in the woods having a good time with the d...

Cant really say much about the blades durability since its a recent buy, but the blade seems decent. Nothing spectacular, but for the price its an alright buy. Clip is strong and sturdy, but the sheath is already showing signs that its about to break. Every time I sheath or unsheathe the blade it seems I'm getting closer to the inevitable snap of the sheath

5mm thick around the edges and 1/8 or 3.5mm in the middle. The overall length of the knife is 8 and 5/8 inches long and is made from one solid chunk of steel, there is no rubber, plastic or wood on this knife just a battle ship colored hard coating (color may vary). The sheath of this knife is great I find Cold Steel always provides a decent sheath but the belt loop attachment is not so good it's made of webbed nylon with Velcro and a snap and a hard piece of plastic that mounts to the sheath and that's where the problem rears it's ugly head

I’d like it if S&W made replacement or additional sheaths available, my shepherd got a hold of the sheath and did some good damage, it can kind of still be used, but replacing it would be nice.

It's a separate piece that can be removed from the sheath. My favorite part about this knife is the price. It's a good knife for an amazing price. Cold Steel sells this knife on their website for almost twice ad much as I paid here

Size is good, feels pretty ok in my big hands. The sheath is good enough, knife fits snugly, could be used as a neck knife maybe. Balance is pretty good. Overall it's a solid little boot knife for the price

This thing is so awesome check that out. Oh, oh all, right, let's just let's just see how it stands. Just oh man, that's amazing, stabbing wasn't a pr...

The two halves of the sheath are held together with 8 eye rivets so it's pretty durable and if you really wanted to you could weave some cord through. The main negative is the edge is not sharpened well. You might want to touch it up, although this thing is really more like a fancy letter opener so I guess it's OK. UPDATE: I bumped it up a star to 5 because other units seem to be a bit sharper than mine

I do not have big hands and it is barely big enough for mine. I plan on wrapping the handle in paracord to . make the grip more subattial and less smooth, which it is. Some texture would have been cool

It also came butter knife dull. The handle is comfortable and the price tag was cheap so it is what it is. I wouldn't buy it again.

I was under the impression that cold steel knives were USA made. Mine says made in Taiwan. So I'm a little disappointed with that but other than that I still love the knife. I was just hoping for a made in USA instead of made in Taiwan stamp

Exactly what I was looking for: lightweight, stainless steel, slim profile, very sharp out of the box, and a great poly scabbard.
