Excellent stout little knife for all the usual camp fun stuff. Needs a strop to get the edge up to speed out of the box. Holds edge well after that. Condor knives don't always have the smoothest steel-to-wood finish but the knife I received was perfect in this regard. Fits my small hands well---it is a neck knife for certain and the sheath is, as always with Condor, fabulous thick leather. Feels like it will last a lifetime. Do love the blade profile, compact Kephart says it all! Ideal for the woods or a tough box cutter if that's what you want.
