Cabox, 1048A1

I'm larger at 6'4" and I like to leave reviews for bigger people to read. That's the kind of review I look for when buying. The knife is very good but imperfect like every other knife. Here are my Pros & Cons: Pros: 1) Solid and feels like good quality. Steel looks and feels like D2. 2) Great pocket carry size for me. 3) Thumb release on sheath is firm and consistent. 4) This micarta feels great, just hope it's durable long-term. 🙏 5) Balance is great, exactly at the index finger location. Cons: 1) Jimping is short and shallow. A sharper and more significant length would be a +. 2) The hold angle feels great for whittling. When arm is extended for slashes, the angle pitches back a little more than Id like, this will possibly require training and to adjust slash travel length if you want to use this for CCW. 3) A small peeve, it arrives in a cellophane bag and the blade is smudgy and dirty with very, very minor scratches/defects in the stone wash. Go black or high polished steel Kizer, your stone wash stinks.

Amazing knife. I purchased it in September 2024 and have used it every day for just about everything, from cutting shingles to using it as a throwing knife. It’s well-balanced, durable, comfortable in the hand, and a great value for the money. I really love the way this knife handles. The only improvement I’d like to see in the next generation is a slightly stronger tip. After nearly two years of heavy use, mine finally broke off this week. Overall, I’ve been extremely impressed with it and would absolutely recommend it.

It’s comes out the box super sharp. Looks great and feels great in the hand. It’s scout carry only which can be a little bulky the way it fits when wearing scout. Due to the ring on the handle. Snags on my shirt from time to time. But I’m giving it 5 stars due to the quality and look and feel. The scout carry bulkiness is just a minor gripe. Nothing to warrant less a star. Also it has a nice kydex sheath and overall a great knife for self defense or even all purpose and full tang. So you can use it outdoors also. 5 stars

This knife would be perfect if it didn’t have the ring on it for my personal opinion. Razor sharp, holds an edge very well, and is overall a high quality knife with quality materials for the price I would not pass this up. The weight of this knife is very well balanced just wish there was a vertical carry option.

This is a very nice knife. It wasn't very sharp when I got it, by my standards anyway. However, it took an edge quickly. It is 8 in out of the sheath and just a hair over 8 and 1/2 in it. Overall I would buy this knife again or as a gift. Four stars cuz nobody gets five in the first review... After I've carried it for a while I'll let you know if it's an EDC or not. I really like the sheath it's thin enough to be functional but strong enough to be sturdy. There is a discernible snap when you have properly sheathed the knife. Anyone can learn to use their thumb to push off against the top of the sheath at the same time you pull fairly quickly. A small amount of force is necessary to remove the knife. It is an entirely appropriate amount of force compared to the necessity of keeping your blade locked securely in the sheath. Other reviewers have stated to not put your finger in the ring on the end unless you are holding it in a reverse grip. I would say don't use the ring at all as it doesn't sit in a good spot and can press/leverage against your grip. That being said though, I liked the ring pressing up against the bottom of my hand. It has a good feel in my grip. I would love to see a 6-in version of this exact same setup, perhaps without the ring but rather a slightly flared butt 🤔

Great size and easy to carry in my boot. The grip fits my hand well

I love this Knife, came nice and sharp right out of the box, the sheath and the leather belt loops to scout carry it was not working for me, the handle stuck out a bit too far and it was snagging on things. My solution was to get a Tek Lock belt clip attachment and drill a small hole in the sheath for the screw. Now it carries vertically like a dream my current EDC for the past few weeks now.

I love this knife. It comes sharp from the factory. And it’s a great tool. I carry it every day.
