The sheath has a belt loop as well as a button attachment and a large thumb lever to assist the easy removal of the knife from the sheath.

 

Blade length 8.5cm

Total length 25cm

 

So what do our instructors think?

Here Jason writes"We decided to trial this knife with some of the work that we do with younger adults (by that I mean 8 year olds...), we were very very pleased. You could see the hair returning to the heads of the instructors as the stress levels of monitoring children with knives lessened... slightly. If I was a child, I would want my dad to buy me this, but it isn't just about the kids, if your work does not involve using the tip of the knife, then this would be ideal"

 

Advantages: Blade does not have a sharp point so reduces the risk of stick injuries. Has a Carbon steel blade so it is easier to sharpen than stainless steel blade. Bright yellow handle so easy to see on the woodland floor.

 

Disadvantages: Will not hold its edge as long as a stainless steel blade so you will need to keep your sharpening stone handy. As it does not have a point it is no good for perforating, but if you do not do this then hey ho...
