I'm fortunate to have one, but no actual field experience yet.
It is most definitely a handful. A SOG Bowie on steroids ......
I'm embarassed to say I didn't take it with me when I was hunting a couple of weeks ago to give it a proper workout...... but I will soon. And I'm thinking it will do everything and then some.
In the meantime, if you're thinking you need one.... GO FOR IT !!!!!!!
Cheers,
Carl
