just like the one I had way back in the late 1960's and early 1070's.

The sheath is low quality but works for the price. The blade is rounded and doesn't hold and edge very well. After using both a wet stone and composite/ceramic sharpener it was sharp enough but it didn't last long. Less of a use knife more for show.

The blade itself is fine, its nice and thick (for a blade this size), sharp, handles perfect. Only problem is the sheath, its a crappy leather, and also wont snap with the knife in it. Its tight enough without the blade but once its in, theres no chance of closin it

For starters the sheath is absolutely terrible the leather it is made from falls apart and the stitching causes the sheath to split in two when I first received it I had to re-sow the split sides of the knife so I ended up just throwing it away. Now the knife could have lived up to its name if had an edge when it arrived I first noticed that the blade had no edge at all and after and hour of wet stoning and grinding the edge just wouldn't last. Now the handle the brass fasteners were loose and crooked and there was really now way to tighten or straighten them and the brass also had green tarnish built up on it. So ultimately I'm really disappointed in the knife quality I'd say your better off saving your money, plus I really don't expect this from BUDK cuz I buy from them all the time

the blade is skewed in the handle, and the knife is obviously made by younger hands. In Pakistan, etc., the bigger knives are crafted by older men. Okay sheath, but the snap appears to be at least 10 years old... makes the knife look aged. The handle needs oiling, the brass needs polishing, the blade needs sharpening... not really worth the effort. Still a cutie for the price. Will give to someone knife-ignorant...

this knife is very good for throwing, but the blade comes a little bent in box but a easy fix, overall very awesome boot knife!!.

Nice collector, could be used in self defense if needed.

nice looking knife, haven't had time to do anything with it yet. am a little disappointed in it's called a boot knife but you can't wear it on your boot( sheath not made for it.)

I was shocked at how sharp the knife is. Its almost too sharp. On one side of the blade it says "mountain man" and on the opposite "Pakistan". This knife feels like one my father would has owned. Very strong and heavy. The only complaint I have is the sheath. The box states it's leather but it feels man-made. Parts of it feels like thick paper and foam rubber. Also the button snap has a bit of rust and corrode. It does keep the blade contained but I would prefer plastic. The knife itself is amazing though. The handle feels especially nice. The handle being round and shaped the right way I doubt someone could take it from me. If someone broke in I would feel confident protecting myself with this. This is the perfect dagger.

crooked, the whole thing is off center . the blade is crooked in the handle , the mountain man logo is off center , the handle itself is cockeyed . i think a drunk, nearsighted, guy made this knife . if the chinese army has weapons like this,, we're safe .
