Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The blade sharpens well and holds an edge. The shackle key is a real saver on deck. Two or three light passes on an oiled arkansas stone and the blade became a straight razor!

The locking marlinspike (well, you need to hold the shackle forward) makes it hugely useful in untying the most recalcitrant of knots. The spike, knife blade and shackle key all have great snap and hold their positions well. Whether i refine the spike... Read More

Price is good, the shipping is fast. Similar to the one sold by amazon.

Cons

The knife i received is not the knife pictured by this seller. This discrepancy has been going on since 2012, according to an earlier review. I plan to toss it in the second deepest part of the puerto rico trench.

How hard is it to depict what is being sold? The whole transaction gets one, for deception. There is no excuse for this to have gone uncorrected for five years.

Shackle key is weak. Knife is very hard to open and close, doesn't lock, and has grit all over it. The ergonomics are not great.

Quality

Has provided quality nautical products for over fifty years

Decent quality and should provide many years of reliable service

Mine was exactly as pictured but just with the loop marlinspike and the dull blade

Price

It is reliable and certainly a good price

Competitiveness

Great to have three essential tools in one convenient wellmade product

It is not a spyderco knife but for the money it seems like a reasonable value
