OERLA TAC Knives OLF-1009 Fixed Blade Outdoor Camping Hunting Field Knife 420HC Stainless Steel with Black G10 Handle Waist Clip EDC Kydex Sheath

My everyday carry. Great knife held edge for a long time Just all around one of the greatest fixed Blades knives I've owned.. sadly I lost mine after a ER visit wasn't in my belongings..

The quality of this knife is superior to many other much more expensive knives. The edge on this knife is so sharp it's scary. The fit of the knife in its kydex sheath is a pleasure, with that nice click to catch or release the knife. The g10 grip is very comfortable and makes the knife easy to use. I cannot recommend this knife more. I liked the first one i got so much I bought one for each man in the family.

I have bought 2 knives from this company. The firstTAC OLL-005 Which I rated highly. Add note that I would probably buy a second which I did. This time, the OLF-1009Now to the rating. The blade is 5 finger in length. Likewise, the handle is also 5 finger and length. Makes it the perfect field Knife Big enough to get the job done. Not big enough to injure the operator. Blade thickness is just about perfect. Giving it enough backbone to get the toughest job done. It's a little heavier on the heavy side, which is indicative of quality knife steel. Out of the box, it's razor-sharp, be careful. A heavier knife tends to be easier to use. As for the handle, it is a very nice size. Fits my average male hand well. As for the sheath, The kydex design as pros and cons.It can flip from horizontal to vertical. And in the vertical it carries high. My personal feelings is at this knife would be better served with a good quality leather Thumbbreak sheath ( Designed for a tactical belt clip) As the Kydex sheath, Is tough to remove and is inherently noisy. I'm thinking that this is gonna become my go to all around carry knife. This knife is rivaling a knife. That I paid 3 timesThe money for

Knife came with a pretty good edge. Sheath seems well maid. Handle is a touch small or could be my big hand. So far I'm happy with it

This was almost exactly the fixed blade EDC I have wanted. Well balanced. Decent weight and nicely balanced - although I would say it's too heavy if you're looking for a long trek backpacking knife. The sheath holds the blade securely. I have it belted sideways and I have had no scares that ithe blade would pop out of the sheath on its own. The handle is wide enough to feel confident when holding the knife. The only criticism is the handle is a little short. Another half inch on the handle would make this EDC perfect. That may not seem like much but when you buy it you will see exactly what I mean.

Lightweight, fits well in my hand, well made it'll be a great fit to my EDC.

“Oerla, please round out the lanyard hole ‘hot spot’! The smaller size of this knife causes that corner to create discomfort in the palm of your hand.”“Other than that, I love this knife! It’s heavy in the hand so is an effective small chopper due to that weight. It’s very sharp and easily maintained, due to the 440c stainless steel blade. Small size, big duty capable. The thick full tang blade can move away from the picnic table and into the brush for some heavy duty bushcraft! This smaller sturdy knife can take a lot of punishment in the woods, it’s a knife you can easily carry, stow, or build tools with. The paddle sheath makes this easy to shove in your back pocket for quick access. G10 scales, thick 440c steel, and a bushcraft workhorse! Get rid of the ‘Rambo’ show pieces, and get a smaller blade with the strength and durability of any ‘Rambo’ type con.”

So, knife just arrived today. Packaging was perfect: not too excessive or hard to open, came in a black rectangular box. First thing I noticed when I removed the sheathed knife from its foam form was the weight. Immediately it had a sturdy feel, and I had an erection. Unsheathing the blade is fluid, and it pops right back into place and will only accidentally come out of the sheath when a force MUCH in excess of that experienced by any sort of labor will produce. Examining the tang first, it is obvious this was produced using a substantial piece of high-quality steel. The handle is well constructed and solid, the edges of tang, including the hole for the lanyard, did not have sharp edges on my own knife, but I have read such on other reviews.Fresh out of the box, blade sliced paper as effortlessly as though it were slicing through a gentle breeze. Whittled a stick into a fine point immediately after said paper test, to similar result. My only concern is that the belt clip likely WILL break under a nominal load of stress, in time. Otherwise, the size is perfectly concealable if you're not in the business of advertising a blades presence on your person. Perfect, because I use my folding knives for utility and only intend to use this blade to defend myself should my life, or anybody else's life for that matter, be threatened by its prey.
