Eickhorn Solingen KM4000 Opinions

[halmic]

Hello,
I received this knife in a trade, anyone know much about them? They are obviously German, and seem to be of good/decent quality. I'm wondering what the value of a gently used example might be?

Honestly can't say.
But seeing that its a sawback
Half serrated tanto point
with a wirecutter;
Its a military grade knife
which might have legit purposes
for military applications;
might not be too hot a knife
for anyone who loathes tactical cutlery though.
Cool thingy but its likely a design with limited general civillian interest as a whole.

It may be a great knife with an actual useful purpose, but a sawback serrated tanto screams mall ninja to me. It's just missing the skull camo or zombie-green-with-blood treatment, really.

Yeah, it screams mall ninja to me too! It's actually of decent quality it seems though.

I've heard Eickhorn has good quality. I wanted to get the KM2000 myself a few years ago.
