"Beautiful knife for the showcase. Not a daily carry due to the "cut yourself" when you close this duel sided blade."
"Do yourself a favor and (¡¡¡DO NOT!!!) buy, it is a letter opener. Nothing more junk blade no edge on it whatsoever, they pay you to take it."
"It is a OK knife at best. It looks good at a distance but only at a distance. The person who made my knife was not good at it at all. first, he blade is very tough to open and the act of opening and closing it has put scratches on the blade its self. Second, the blade is not uniform to the least of bit. The blade at the bottom is very sharp but as it goes up the angle increases till it is almost rounded and to top it off, there is no top. It looks like it was never pit on because it is a perfect flat square. Third, it come to me with rust already on it despite being warped in paper and oil. Forth, the person who did the inlay work could not use a hammer properly and there are hammer dints in the wood. I am very disappointed with you Timber Wolf for making such a low quality of knife and still had to pay $55+S&H."
"I received this knife as a Christmas gift from my wife, it's a beautiful piece and the damascus pattern is very well done but when the blade is folded it is impossible to open without pliers. I've tried applying 3 in 1 oil but it hasn't helped. I'm hoping it can be exchanged and it's just a fluke. if so I will post another review"
"the only issue I have was shipping mix up. The knife is a work of art. damascus steel is like a finger print no two are alike. the steel is mainly carbon so you have to keep the metal oiled or it will rust. I am a huge fan of Damascus steel, once you hold it you will want more. very nice knife...."
"I bought two. It's described as a gentleman's knife...it is, but I'm also giving one to my girlfriend. It fits great in her jeans It comes with an alright little leather scabbard that I'll never use. This knife has nice weight, yet it is slender and fits very nicely in my pocket. After cleaning and sharpening, These knifes are really a nice piece of work. I should really be referring to this piece as a dagger. If you don't know the difference, you may not want this. Daggers have a different feel and purpose. This particular piece is not a "working knife"... I wouldn't hit this one with a chunk of wood to cut kindling for the fire place. I use my KaBars for that. It's a very well crafted show piece. You can see the pride in workmanship. Being shipped and covered in oil is NOT a drawback. The old M-1 carbines were shipped in cosmoline (try cleaning that mess) to protect them from the weather during shipping and storage. These knives are shipped with the same pride and care. If you know and collect knives, then I would add this to my collection. I now carry this one in my pocket and the KaBar on my belt.:)"
"This is an amazingly beautiful folding knife. By the way it's put together I know it is a quality piece, it's not really sharp but I don't think I would want it to be, it's just to nice to want to use. I'm betting this will move fast. I've shown it around. I don't think I'll still have it for the next show. Thank you. Daniel of Nebraska."
"I would have to say that of all the knives I've ever owned, and a few high end custom knives, this one isn't what I expected.. I opened it and it's covered in oil. I can see the three mosaic circles in the inlaid wood are off center and on one side, it's closer to the end circle. Plus the tip of the knife is a little flat. But of all the knives I've ever had, this one deserves 5 stars because the imperfections are what make a knife unique. I don't want a knife that's just too perfect to use, and on this particular piece, everything is perfectly flush and what needs to be functional as washers for fluidity movement on the blade, well, it works just fine :) There is an abundance of materials, the brass inlay and the damascus steel itself is very pretty and is real because it won't just rub off after I play with the knife a thousand times to break it in. Everything is thick showing that they spare no expense when it comes to giving you what you paid for, and honestly, this knife should be a lot more expensive than it is being sold for. It's what people need to look for when they want to buy what they call knives which are cheap chineese imitations. This is a real knife, and it brings me back to when people had honest work for a fair price. I'd buy another knife from this maker and I'd recommend this to a friend. It's freaking flawless and very smooth in all aspects. I love the thumb stud also because it offers the option of range for your thumb to feel more secure. I wouldn't change a thing, just master this type and work on other types of metal to combine and make the damascus steel, maybe other woods that look awesome oiled, or maybe even marble. But that's hard to work with. THIS IS AN AWESOME KNIFE THANK YOU I"LL KEEP THIS FOREVER."
"This Dagger is a very impressive one. its a dagger not a knife. so it have barely of a cutting edge but this dagger has a strong thick sharp point. The details of this knife are near imaginable on how beautiful the wood inlay in the handle. the Damascus Steel is very high quality known to be on a knife three times the price. there is also beautiful file work along the lock and inside of the handle surrounding the lock and along the back of the handle. This knife is also a linear lock as the lick is inside the handle. the only fault of this dagger is when you receive it its covered in a oil, and the blade is somewhat difficult to get out of the handle as it is a folding knife. also the blade has a heavy blood groove and it comes with a leather pocket sheath for it to be carred on the belt instead of your pocket. I originally asked this dagger for myself. but the irony is that i got this in the mail on my fathers 57th birthday. so after some thinking i decided to give it to him and i was happy to see his face light up to see how impressed he was with it and to see him smile like that in such a long time. thank you Timber wolf for your outstanding product."
