Heritage 169OT 10.25in S.S. Fixed Blade Knife with Drop Point Blade, Laminate Handle and Kydex Sheath for Outdoor, Hunting, Camping and EDC

I was looking for an affordable camping knife and was excited to see this one come up in D2, which is one of my favorite steels. The fit and finish are great for the price, the only potential problem is that the tang is slightly proud of the scales, which might cause a bit of pain trying to grip for long periods. I will change my review if the knife doesn’t hold up to abuse testing. Comes very sharp out of the box, not hair whittling but a good functional edge the glides through cardboard. UPDATE: I used some wet/dry automotive sandpaper (2000 & 3000 grit) to round any hard edges on the handle, it did not take very long and I was not aggressive to get it feeling great in the hand. The knife survived some very light batoning with no damage to the edge. Whittles just fine, but it is big enough I don't think it would be my first choice because of the increased risk of having such a long exposed edge. I'm happy to have found a good around the ranch work knife that won't need sharpened very often.

Just got. Quality knife. Feels like good purchase. Could shave with it!! Little heavy, if that concerns you. Would buy again!

Muy buen cuchillo, excelente filo. Su funda muy bonita y bien elaborada. El acero del cuchillo de buena dureza, conserva mucho el filo.

Happy with this knife it feels good in the hand has good weight and balance, plus it’s polished nicely. Razor sharp you could shave with it. I applied 3 coats of oil to sheath letting each one dry after working the oil in to the sheaths in’s and out sides this takes a couple days but worth the time and patients. I recommend this knife. Thanks.

Just got the knife, so this is just an unboxing review. No surprises when i received it, it came exactly how it looks in the photos. It seems like a strong stout knife with about 4 mm spine and full tang. Jimping is done nicely and feels fine pushing with thumb. The blade has a very polished mirror finish, and came very sharp. D2 is stamped on the blade and the steel seems to be quite hard. The sheath fits tight and should work fine, although I think black leather would have looked much better than brown. The handle has a larger circumference than other knives of this length/size.
