Redline Fixed Blade Hunting Knife with Ferro Rod and Sheath - Perfect for Outdoor Adventures - Holtzman's Gorilla Survival

Got this knife a couple days ago and I am very impressed with it....the first thing I noticed was how nice the packaging was. The sheath is really nice as well and holds the knife and ferro rod nice and tight. You won't have to worry about the knife rattling around or falling out. I also love the diamond sharpener incorporated into the sheath. The spine of the knife has a nice sharp 90 degree edge that throws sparks from the ferro rod great. The Knife came sharp but of course I'm a nut about a sharp knife and quickly put a razor edge on it. I'm also a fan of the D2 steel as it seems to hold an edge well...of course it takes a little more work to get a good edge once it gets dull...but that's not an issue for me. The handle has a good comfortable feel to it and fits well in my large hands. Seems a little too bulky for me to wear as a neck knife so I put the included pocket clip on and it fits great clipped to my pocket or belt. I plan on making a lanyard for it soon. This is a great quality knife and you get a lot of bang for your buck with this little survival knife and kit. It's my new EDC and gets put to plenty of use. You won't be disappointed with this knife!

Great little EDC knife. Super sharp and the finish is top notch. The handle is very comfortable in hand (I can get three fingers on the grip with my fourth just hanging off) and the G10 scales are grippy. I have to give it to them, I’ve bought $250 knives with less fit and finish than this knife. The sheath fits the knife with no rattle and it feels very secure. The scales have been perfectly sanded and fit to the handle so that there is no noticeable rough spots between the scales and the metal portion of the handle. The only downside is the belt clip. If you are going to be walking around in the woods I would use something more secure to attach it to your belt but just day to day it’s nice to be able to easily slip it off your belt without taking your belt off. Overall great buy.

The knife is great! And it comes in a gift box with an Allen wrench/Phillips driver, ferro rod and diamond sharpener on the sheath. The knife fits well in my hand, sharp out of the box and the finish work is great. It may be a little large and heavy for a neck knife but I like the size for a small fixed blade. The sheath however needs a little work. I had to really work to get the knife to click into the sheath and then I could not remove the knife. I had to use a heat gun to soften the Kydex and remove my knife (I did wrap the knife handle with a damp towel and wore leather gloves to do this). I now fits well in the sheath. There is also an eyelet missing (see picture). I like the added ferro rod and loop even though I removed it. I considered repositioning the loop but not all of the eyelets are spaced to accept the loop. I also wanted to put the loop on the front of the sheath, not the side but the loop bent the sheath and the handle on the ferro rod pressed against the sheath. Also note there is not a loop to wear this sheath on a belt. The icing on the cake would have been a loop to wear the sheath horizontal or vertical. A little planning on the layout of the eyelets would make this work. I would give this a 5+ star if the sheath had fit right off, wasn't missing an eyelet and had loop to wear on a belt. I still really like the knife.

The knife is great in my opinion. I wanted a small fixed blade and this seems like a well built one. It's a little heavy for a neck knife but that's not what I wanted it for. It's very sharp out of box and feels good in hand. I have large hands so I can't get a full grip on it but I still like it and knew it was that small going in.The sheath in my opinion is horrible. It was super tight and almost impossible to get the knife in or out. I fixed that with a heat gun but I shouldn't have had to.I like that I am able to remove the fire starter and mount as I'm not planning to use it. But the sharpening stone being attached to the other side needs to be removable with screws. As it's mounted now there's no way to remove it. If i wanted to wear this knife IWB that sharpener is going to be super uncomfortable without an undershirt which I normally don't wear.Also it came with a bonus clip I can mount on the sheath for pocket or maybe belt carry but it can only be mounted in 1 position. Seems like a missed opportunity to make it a multi mounting clip or even horizontally would be nice.I would have no problem rating this a 4 or maybe 5 if the sheath was much better.Updated to say I have changed my rating from 3 to 5 stars. After this review I was contacted on amazon by Holtzman's Gorilla Survival asking what they could do to make this right for me. I asked what they wanted to do for me and they said they would send me out a new sheath for the knife.I said that would be amazing and gave them my info. I received a package from them today which is a few days later. Not only did they send a new sheath but they sent an entire new knife as well. They also sent me a few other extras which really impressed me. I mean no other company has ever contacted me after a review.Anyway the new sheath is a MUCH better fit than the original. I won't need to alter it at all.My only complaint with the knife or the sheath now is the fact I can't remove the built in sharpening stone.After this transaction I will buy from Holtzman's Gorilla Survival with full confidence. Amazing company.
