Scuba Diving Boating Low Volume Stainless Steel Blunt Tip BCD Knife

5 stars, big bang for the buck. Used exculively on ocean kayak fishing trips. Size is optimal in that it could easily be fastened upside to PFD, enabling quick and ubobstrusive access. Securely locks in place with its botton feature. Has not yet unintendedly fallen out of place, knock on wood. The case is made of hard plastic which initially, thought it might be cheesey, however, this perception became positive after regular use. The blade was comes blunted which adds a level of safety that a sharp tip does not have. I think this is advantageous on a kayak. In terms of corrosion, this has been used on four outings already and it was used for cutting dummycords (550 cord), fish, etc, and it shows no rust on the stainless steel. But then again, allout equiment receives a rinsing of water after each trip out to ocean. This blade also gets a generous spraying of WD40 w silicone to protect the blade. This knife is exactly like the Cressi diver knife but at a lower price. Also bought the Cressi and these two are exactly identical in every way, minus eched name.

I'd have given it a 5 if it were a rubber sheath. My knife is 304 stainless (better stainless qualities for salt water than 440c but is "soft" so not a good day-to-day knife). It is very sturdy and there is a small grey slide on the sheath (can see it in the pictures) that, with a push towards the tip, literally locks the knife into its sheath. I bought the knife for use on a life jacket (open ocean sailing) and I have no fears of losing this knife or that it might rust. This knife is non-magnetic (austenetic stainless).

Knife seems good but could use some sharpening right off the bat. Line cutter wouldn't even cut 8lb mono fishing line. The sheets is ok I guess, locking mechanism seems cheap but actually stayed locked. I also would like to have a belt loop attachment. It comes with pocket clip and a hose attachment. When I use this as a backup dive knife I would never attach it to my air line hoses and the pocket clip would fall off with ease

Great little knife to attach to your PFD. Locking clip securely holds the knife in the sheath. It does need a quick sharpening on the straight edge if you want it razor sharp. Serrated edge is nice and sharp. Read the specs because it is a small knife. I find it very handy for kayak fishing if its clipped on my life vest.

Hard cheap plastic. But for the price point is fine. Consider the clip worthless but if you decide to clamp it on a hose it’s be okay. Problem is, it doesn’t retain well in its sheath. It falls right out.

Do NOT buy! Knife is flimsy and does not stay in the holder.

Works well for snorkeling.

A bit flimsy and small, but good for the price.
