Review: Love this knife, with some minor flaws - I have owned this knife for about 2 years and it still is one of my favorites. The knife is robust enough to take some abuse and it holds a good edge without chipping or rolling. Did not come razor sharp, used my Landsky sharpener and now a surgeon can use it, its crazy sharp. Love love the flat grind, very easy to strop in the field. I have a medium sized hand and feel the handles are very comfortable. I highly recommend this knife, the price point is ridiculously cheap for a knife this good. The sheath is molle compatible and while its a little cheap, look at the price point...Ontario knife knocked this out of the park as far as I’m concerned. Minor gripe: The handles did not come perfectly fitted to the blade, they are slightly oversized, not sure what happened with machining/finishing but if you want to eliminate the difference, you would need to use a belt grinder and some stain. Not a problem for me however. I still strongly recommend this knife.
Review: Great Knife - Met My Expectations - I received the OKC Bushcraft field knife yesterday. As the first photo shows the knife was packaged with the black nylon sheath. The knife is made in the USA of 5160 steel (see photo). The knife measured 10.5 inches with a blade length of 5 inches (see photo). The sheath is black nylon and has a small pocket. The sheath is made in China. I’m not too thrilled with the sheath, but it is very functional. The knife came with a good edge, but I did sharpen it to my liking. The top edge of the blade is flat and has a good edge for striking a ferro rod fire starter. The handle is very nice and provides a well balanced feel in your hand. I put the knife through a few tests and was very impressed. Again, I like the feel of the knife in my hand when I used it for splitting small kindling, drilling a hole on my fire board, and general tasks. It met all of my expectations. I look forward to using it on my upcoming backcountry trip.

### ⭐⭐⭐ No longer made in 5160 steel
*by L***R on April 5, 2022*

I purchased this knife about a year ago and the knife I received does appear to be 5160 but Ontario’s website now lists this as 420HC which frankly is probably a better choice for this knife as it is not long or thick enough to be a chopper or heavy batoner. It’s ideal use is as a camp knife, particularly for food prep. The thin blade and full flat grind makes it ideal for slicing meat and vegetables and for that use a stainless steel blade would actually be preferable. Neither steel is great at holding an edge but both are easy to resharpen and 420HC is a tough steel as well so there’s no real advantage to 5160 for a knife of this size. Just be aware that if you are expecting a 5160 blade you will probably be disappointed. As far as the rest of the knife goes, mine had the usual poor fit and finish that, sadly, I have come to expect from Ontario in recent years. Honestly they are no better than Condor now but they still cost more. They have even switched to using 1075 now instead of 1095 for their RAT, Spec Plus and Old Hickory lines. The handles on mine had the usual raised lip along the tang which I immediately went to work on with sandpaper. Now it’s smooth and very comfortable. I have large hands so I do really appreciate the long handle of this knife. The other big complaint I have about this knife is the garbage sheath it comes with. This is where Condor has Ontario beat hands down. You get a nice leather sheath with most Condor knives while you get a garbage nylon sheath with most Ontario knives. I purchased a BPS brown leather sheath with a dangler here on Amazon and it fits this knife perfectly and is a huge improvement over the one that came with the knife.
