Nooraki 13" - Handmade Damascus Steel Fixed Blade Hunting Knife with Leather Sheath, Multipurpose Knife with Rosewood Handle for Everyday Carry, Outdoor Camping & Hunting Gift (RoseWood-1)

Good knife

Buen producto

The Damascus steel blade and hilt/grip pieces were very attractive and untarnished for the most part, and the pattern was uniform. The grip and hilt pieces feel solid with no play, and seem to be cleanly attached. Construction seems great for the price.Now for the negatives: There were a few scratches visible on one side of the blade, however, that I imagine were made during the sharpening process. These were light scratches that were not always visible unless the light hit them right, but you could feel them with a fingernail if you knew where to try. The outer edge/corner of the top of the hilt also had some dings that you could easily feel by running a finger over the edge. The bigger wooden grip section had a sizeable crack in the wood that had been filled in with epoxy coating. I don't know if that is a real weakness that could one day fail, but visually it doesn't look as good as solid wood to me.Since this was a gift and the receiver didn't care about those imperfections, I did not return the knife. Overall, for the price I think it is a good deal. It would have gotten returned by my picky self, however.

High quality

Beautiful product very nice razor sharp

I gave this to my dad for Father's day...he said it was the best knife he had ever owned. Beautiful hand crafted desmascus steel. Rose wood handle. Sharp as a razor. Will buy again for myself !!!!!

First use was on a camping trip w/ my wife. We both used it quite a bit. I didn't really put it through any abuse but as a utilitarian knife it performed well all around. Cutting steaks or just whittling some sticks, it seems to be as sharp now as it was out of the box.

I'm very impressed with the quality of the knife but the sheath leaves much to be desired and it is the only drawback that I've found
