PAL 2000 KNIVESPOC-9677 Handmade Damascus Steel 8 Inches Folding Pocket Knife

A little tighter build than some of my other knives the blade is slower to deploy, and the metal to bone ratio for the scales leans more towards the metal than the bone, but overall a very nice knife with a good feel to it. The sheath is very nicely made too. Far better than I expected.

Now, I have a few things to say about this pocketknife and why I didn't give it five stars. The knife itself seems to be made of quality materials and has really nice craftsmanship. When locked into place, the blade does not move at all, which I absolutely love. The design throughout the handle and blade make it really stand out. Although it feels nice enough in the hand, it does seem a little bulky for my taste. Also, I prefer a blade to be very sharp when I buy it. This one you made need to do some sharpening. The point, however, is spot on and VERY sharp to the touch. The sheath is well made and does a nice job of securing your knife in place. Closed, this knife is 4 1/2" in length. When open, this knife is a full 8" in length. The blade itself is heavy and 1/8" thick throughout, 3 1/2" in length with 3 1/4" of that being sharpened.Overall, I would recommend this folding knife to anyone.
