S-TEC 9" Full Tang Tactical Knife with ABS Swivel Sheath - GEN 2 -

I love this knife. It’s practical and can be concealed easily. Mounts vertically or horizontally without printing. As they teach in the Marine Corps, man without a knife, man without a life. Good concealed product, perfect size and very sharp. Perfect for big hands and won’t accidentally fall from the sheath.

Pure and Simple folks, this is the best self-defense knife you will ever buy on amazon! This is the next generation knife to S-Tec's previous model with a few key upgrades. First, this is a full taung steel knife with a finger loop at the base for grip which can double as a knuckle duster. Second, The knife is perfectly designed so when the need arises will come out of its sheath quickly and in the direction you want your blade to be. Other reviews stating this is not desirable unless your a serial killer is false! The design gives the user of this S-Tec blade the best possible advantage in a situation that you will hopefully never have to be in. Lastly, The paddle sheath that everyone is complaining about is a very minor flaw. I found that after a few turns of the star bolt completely detached the paddle part from the sheath. I can now easily put it in my pocket and conceal the knife until I need to gain access. Which with the design of the loop grip is very fast! Don't have any illusions. This is a self-defense knife pure and simple Thank You S-Tec!

10/10 holster, it can be pulled and tugged any direction even in sweatpants and does budge the holster in anyway when pulling the blade out. The blade itself is a beautiful full tang great quality knife with a very nice grip that fits perfectly (for my hand at least) when holding and pulling out and putting in. The loop at the back is really love and hope to not cut myself trying to spin it trying to look cool lol. I rated it 4/5 because although the blade is sharp it did NOT cut hair off my arm at all from any angle. I would expect with it being new it would but still overall a great great knife and has the ability to be great for a concealed carry. Overall, highly highly recommend this one over the last 4 "popular rated knifes" I have bought off Amazon before. Well worth the money!

Knife is perfect for my needs. Got that traditional kung fu feel with the ring and the shape is reminding me of House of Flying Daggers but has that modernity about it. However the holster is godawful. Like out of the box, it does it job but the paddle option is bulky and takes up a lot of real estate, the supposed "swivel" angle adjuster is stuck, and if u try to loosen it, nothing happens. If you're left handed and want to dual wield, that's a negative. Otherwise, great knife. Sucky accessories.

The knife is good quality for the price, but the sheath is disappointing. I have a full set of metric and SAE hex wrenches, security key wrenches, computer repair key wrenches, torx keys, and NONE of them fit the center pivot. That's ok, because the pivot is torqued enough to be firm but still allow for adjusting. But the sheath is NOT REVERSIBLE and if you want to carry the knife at a 3 or 4 o'clock position, the knife handle is backwards. When drawing, your hand is not holding the knife for a smooth presentation. You could stab with it, but unless you are a serial killer, you need to rotate the knife 180 degrees for practical use. I pivoted the sheath 270 degrees and carry it at 6 o'clock, but it is very uncomfortable when in a car or truck. I'm thinking of mounting it to my steering column as a carjacking preventer. Enough about the sheath-the knife is great and a good value for the price. It fits my hand perfectly and the pinky hole is very generous and rounded for comfort. It came nicely honed, which is not typical for mail order knives.

Good quality, took the belt clip off the sheath so it could be attached to molle

holds edge great,keep it on side when away from home.

Impressive for the price. Very sturdy and slim line. Easy carry and conceal. Would buy again. Good edge...sharp. Just what I was looking for.
