The knife has been processed in a top quality. The leather sheath is very well made. On the blade is HANDMADE and it makes a very solid impression, just 440 C steel! The handle fits perfectly in your hand. The wood feels smooth and it's really fun to work with the knife. The knife is a very good working tool to eg branches cut or edit, even thicker branches can thus pooping well, because the blade is top-heavy - as I have also paid particular attention when buying. Through the blade length of 120mm, the blades should be even without further problems well carry with them (outside the home). The blade length is quite large - especially if you have bought the knife online, you will marvel at the size at delivery. All in all - the knife what makes her, even if it has more of a classic look. The knife blade was in the delivery quite sharp, but I've seen sharper blades - but since one can help out. It is recommended that the same also a grindstone, best an oil grindstone as the Arkansas Scharfenstein with sharp oil, it gilbt also in the set. In the supplied cardboard packaging a certificate where a few notes on the IP (International product) is given, the manufacturer in 2012 and of course sharpening instructions (all in German and English). To clean the knife I use BALLISTOL a universal oil - which is also used as a weapon cleaning oil. The handle I so well oiled just before use and allow to dry. In order for the wood handle is optimally protected and the wood pattern now looks darker and more defined. I have this Outdoor Palmwood knife new to Amazon ordered to the incredible price of Euro 58,99 incl. Postage. The price in Cougar online shop amounted to Euro 76, - plus postage -. But also not appear too high to me. So a real bargain. I use the knife privately to build arrow and ground etc. while hiking or playing with the kids. Although this knife will not get a highly collectable, it is a solid tool and has proven itself.
