I think the product description found online is accurate, it is exactly as I thought. But the manufacturing quality is precise. This is a large knife and it has heft, so think muscular. Since the handle is also quite large, I found the fit for my hand in the finger grooves to be a bit off where I would normally grab. I have Large hands, but not Extra-Large hands which might fit perfect. It also requires some additional arm motion to remove from sheath with this length blade. They make a smaller version that would be a better fit for many uses. Otherwise, I'm concerned the sheath will scratch the blade finish due to friction inserting, etc. I'm not using it.

Unbelievable grip for a coated leather handle. She's exceptional in presentation, fit, finish, and truly SHARP. The sharpening stone is authentic, and the all leather sheath is perfect. I carry it for hiking protection against loose dogs here in the Adirondack Mountains. Excellent bang for the buck. I've been a collector, and enthusiast for over 50 years. Taiwanese are EXPERTS at manufacturing edged instruments. I am thoroughly impressed with the AUS8 heat treating by SOG. It's a mode grade steal, with a High End heat treatment. Heat treating is the secret, and the making of an average steal an OUTSTANDING FORMIDABLE, and most dependable knife for a stellar price. The balance and straightness are beyond reproach. I absolutely love it. I own some very high end blades; this ranks up there with some of my $1000.00+ knives...No Joke!Read full review

First off I purchased the new Super Sog Bowie knife for $171. So, yes it was a great value! The knife is excellent in build and detail. Sheath is leather with black dye. Functional but could be better in my opinion. Knife has good heft and straight up beautiful. Great blade grind, very sharp and for me very comfortable. Some my complain that handle is too thick but I don’t find that the case. Even at $200 I think this is an excellent value. Yes it’s made in Taiwan but the quality control is superb.

Fantastic knife Price was a tad steep but worth every penny Knife is hooked on my molle gear on my left front side Great knife and great source Looking forward to my next buy in knives from Ebay Than you for my knife I collect Randall and Busse knives and this will probably wind up unused in my collection I saw it a number of years ago but never bought one and you were the only place that had one in stock Made me very happy!

Beautiful, well made & nicely finished, BUT I would have preferred a kydex sheath,should be an option, also the leather handle is SO SLIPPERY! I would have preferred G-10 or Micarta. I will probably sand off the varnish to get down to the leather & oil it as I find it like holding a catfish!
