I recently got 4 Siegle Knives and tested them

This will be a review of the last 3

2 of these have been sold

All are 1/4" 5160

From Small to large

One of the few non full tang Siegle knives I have tested--that had Micarta Grips too

Felt very good in hand-Cut well also

Sold it to a Siegle Lover like me who wanted it more than I did

Did some box Cutting then some chopping

Box cutting tests accuracy and handle retention

I spent about 20 minutes chopping with each(taking rests as needed)

The Bowie did very well but I liked the handle on the Whychus slightly better so I sold the Bowie to the same man that bought the Brown Handled one.


Then I took out the Whychus Chopper and did some more testing

Stay tuned

Zeus looks great!Can tell you really take great care of him. Kinda hard to look at that beautiful Texas weather when we just got 12 inches of snow dumped on us!
