The pros:*Knife feels solid and decently balanced
*Damascus etchings are darker and more pronounced than other Damascus steel knives i own
*Sheath is leather and solid construction
*Genuine Horn Handle,remodeled to aid griping
*Great show piece
The Cons:
*The Blade has many mini cracks in the spine and edge.
-probably due to the materials used during forging. the cracks indicate that the blade is not very solid, cant hold a edge and is brittle.
-The chips and cracks seem to a result of the blade steel not being very durable
*The Knife i got has a decent sized chip in the blade edge. and another chip in near the knife end edge
*The Horn handle at places lack proper polish so it feels roughly made
*The Sheath leather strap to secure the knife is awkwardly placed. Every time u sheath the blade you slightly cut the strap if u don't use a hand to pull the strap way back.
Conclusion: The blade is beautiful to look at BUT shows many blemishes if examined closely. The cracks makes one hesitant to use this as a hunting/camping knife. That being said it looks awesome and if not examined closely looks and feels like a expensive knife. Great show knife, not good for practical use.
