Pros & Cons
Cons
Marlinspike locked once and then released. Lack of a secure locking mechanism makes the spike dangerous to use. Got the camillus-made marlin spike, instead.
Highlights
Quality
This a a good quality knife and comes in a nice box
Serves its purpose good quality used a lot on my boat or when splicing
Quality is pretty damn good there are some grinding marks on the blade edge that i can remove myself
Packaging/appearance
I needed a mariner style knife that i would not care if it ended up in the fingerlakes
Competitiveness
Quickly resolved with a few minutes of dremmel tool adjusting and repolishing

Also as mentioned before dull the marlin spike with a file and it will work for knots

Blade has a very slight wobble but if the blade was tighter in the bolsters it would be difficult to open

It is a uniform diameter until the last inch or so then it tapers to a sharp pointed end which makes it pretty much useless

I suggest to the manufacturer to blunt the end of the spike as the needle point is not appropriate for precision rope work

The issue with the picture is that the grip on this knife is not as it appears
