Well guys it's my first time reviewing and I'm sorry that the pics are crappy, but here it goes.
When I first got it in, I could feel the quality. I took it out of its sheath and swung it in the air a couple times, I really liked its weight, seemed sturdy enough.
Well I decided that it was time to take it out to the woods. Did I mention I have a wilderness in my back yard?!
Then I had to pick what gear to bring. I decided that I would bring along a Bic along with the fire steel, to go with the cutlery( pics provided.)
Well I decided to see if the boomerang could take on a tree.

Well, I think that it did a pretty good job!

I think that they all look good togather. :p:thumbup:

Well it was getting dark and I decided that it better be time to head back in, but not after one last test. Lets see do you think that the boomerang can make it into a thick piece of wood after one try?

All in all, this is a great knife. It has some good weight to it, is strong, sharp, and inexpensive. Hell if I don't win this one in the raffle, I might have to pick one up myself! :p:p:thumbup::cool:

Also, last but not least. Thanks for the opportunity hollowdweller. I appreciate it!
 
Good knife, it has an awl, spear blade, hawkbill blade, scissors, and can opener, and bottle opener. You can find very similair ones on the bay for cheap.
 
Yay Ace! But of course I'm at home and my system is too slow to view the pics.:thumbdn:

I'll check them out tomorrow.

You know you can use the little image button to make them appear in the thread right??
 
Ace, tried to edit to make your pics show. In photobucket, just click on the img thing (click right on the code). It copies automatically then you can simply paste here, and the image will show.
 
Brian, I can't see the pics on my second post. I'm not sure if anyone else can. I don't have the ability to go onto photobucket as it was my friend's account. If I can find the links do you mind if I repost them?
 
I fixed your second post - I can see the links again, sorry!

Yeah, go ahead and repost, just edit those same ones and make the adjustments there!

Or sign up for Photobucket. It's free and takes only a minute or two.
 
Nice pictures and great review ace........:thumbup:

I like this one:
