I started checking out the Swiss tech camping and knife collection about a year and a half or so ago. at first I started out with decent stuff made out of AUS-8. They have up their game to include D2 steel as well as Japanese VG-10 steel. I have pretty much about 85% of what they have out there. I have three of their lights a flashlight a headlamp and their large three-tier camping lamp with Bluetooth speaker. The knife I purchased and is the subject of this review is absolutely awesome. It came out of the box razor sharp and I do mean razor sharp. I am very proficient at sharpening knives and getting them to a mirrored razor sharp edge. But I didn’t even have to mess with it because it came from the factory that sharp. And I’m glad they didn’t put the kind of rhino liner material that they put on their other two fixed blade knives. The other two knives are great but I don’t like the blade finish. My only complaint is that you are able to unscrew the belt clip and turn it sideways for Scout carry. however one of the screws in there was cheaply made and as soon as I tried to unscrew it the hex key pattern stripped. I was EXTREMELY disappointed!
