“A super grippy handle is essential in the wild. A rugged sheath keeps your knife at the ready. Hopefully you never need my Priorities of Survival, but if you do, it will be there for you when you need it most.”

Very good knife, its grip is very good, sharpining is very easy, sheath is also very easy to undo and the blade and the flint is 5 star!

Just got one of these for my girlfriend.
Blade is sturdy with a black non-gloss finish and cast polymer handle. Edge will need to be re-honed without a lot of use. Hi-visibility features but no reflection. Grip is rubberised and ribbed. Was impressed with hammer-end on the knife, dedicated section on the back of the blade for using with the fire-striker so you don't ruin the edge.
Fire-striker is as expected, clips in to the sheath up-side down. I'd be worried about it snagging and getting pulled out.
Sturdy sheath with integrated diamond sharpener, pretty standard. Polymer sheath with velcro attachments to nylon backing.
Distress whistle and "lanyard" are a bit anaemic, probably my biggest complaint.
Pro - Hi-visability, appropriately priced. Good sheath with diamond sharpener. Knife would be appropriate for most camping trips.
Con - Hi-visability, fire-striker could get pulled out/snagged. Fine edge will require some care and attention over time. Whistle and Lanyard are gimmicks. Nowhere to store "survival notes" which are not on waterproof paper.
Conclusion - Excellent for a wife/daughter who doesn't wear a uniform. Quality knife for a teenager going camping.
Made an excellent gift and isn't a complete novelty.
Would probably self-destruct if you went to ground or tried to confuse it with a two-letters that starts with K and rhymes with "Baaah".
