I'm sending ahead that I bought exactly this knife in Spain and must mention that these knives, as they are made in very small batches by hand, are in different versions with different sheaths on the market further. My copy is exactly the same model with the only difference being that the label on the blade is no longer "CDV", but the new name of company "JV" is. Now the hardware: contrary to the testimony of a Vorrezensenten the blade thickness is exactly 5mm, the edge is very sharp, which is not soooo easy to verify because of the relatively high cutting angle at the "shaving test" because it is in danger of cutting Unters deck leather. But fine Skinningarbeiten are also not sense this part, which by name and also on the form should already be a combat knife with outdoor skills. The blade surface (steel mova 58, somewhere between 440C and N695) is evenly satin, the blade retains its strength to about 0.5-1cm off the top and then goes on in this convex. Canceling should therefore be difficult. The transitions of the surfaces are made very clean, between handles and Tang there are no irregularities, the grip is well fed and comfortable, the shape of the Micartagriffschalen is uniform, a delicate "Palm Well" supports the function of the typical Combat-grip shape. The Tang runs in a structured impact piece of that is short enough not to impede rapid change of grip, the Parierelemente at the transition handle blade prevent "in the blade slipping" and have holes, which together with the rear Lanyardhole use as Notspeer allow. To Sheath: although I would prefer here Kydex, this very clean processed leather sheath is quite usable, it allows both deep wear to the belt loop and high carrying on the belt by means of two Molle locomotives (the back of the vagina prepared for it) and reversed Carrying on a vest or a backpack with Molleaustattung who mounted close to the vagina, rotating securing strap holds the knife and operates safely in the vagina. Only disturbing is the grindstone pocket. Overall, high quality at a very fair price.
