This reads more like an ad, which is what we've come to expect from Red Scorpion 6.
 
How is this a review? The knife looks like it has never been used, and if it has; you have failed to tell us how it did...
 
Beta464, this is a tough crowd. Better actually do something with the knife. BTW, that sheath looks like a cheap copy of the one that came with my Baily Bear Grylls knife.
 
That sheath looks nasty.

SK5 is a foreign steel. So basically you are saying that the RS 6 knife is a cheap foreign-made copy of an American made knife. And that the cheap foreign copy comes with a cheesy sheath.
 
Just curious, shouldn't a "comparison" have both knives in the same picture, or if separate some scale to measure by? I mean no offense but I could use separate pics to make an Izula and an ESEE-4 seem very similar in size...just keeping with the ESEE theme here.
 
Anyone remember how quickly did RS6 get himself banned here when he first started shilling his made-in-China "customs"?

Personal preference on the looks man and don't get me wrong I love the Esee and I in now way think it's better but I also don't think it's worse (except for the leather sheath) and no I don't advertise for RS6

So I've noticed,I'll try to take some photo's of it wood splitting some time maybe that will help,I never even thought of that before but your right it does look like a cheap copy and now that I think about it the ASK looks like a direct rip off on the Bailey Bear Grylls,I appreciate the help and if there's anything else I can do to improve my reviews please let me know.

I don't know how you get that from the steel alone but what ever,the cheesy sheath part I agree with though,also just note it's SKS-5 not SK-5

Well I just sold my Esee 3 2 weeks ago so I couldn't do side by side,I'll try to get one from my friend to test right alongside the ESK.
