Trango Piranha Climbing Knife

[Blunt Forged Edge]

Anyone here a climber? Not me, but was curious about this little knife I stumbled upon; the Trango Piranha Climbing Knife.

Not my picture from BackCountry<.>Com

And the only YouTube video of said knife.

Just curious to know about similar such knives. That's all!

To be honest, it looks like garbage to me. If I was climbing, I would bring along something a little better quality, and more than likely it would be a fixed blade. I wouldn't want to be effing around trying to open my knife If for some reason I had to cut a line in a dangerous situation. That knife doesn't look like it would be sturdy at all. Obviously, better than no knife. You can do better for 25 bucks. A mora or a kershaw could be had for that amount.

I wouldn't pay money for that, much less trust my life to it. That's just me, though.
