Siwi Outdoor Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath, Black, 2082 | 3.34" Drop Point Blade, SK-5 Steel with Corrosion Resistance, Thermoplastic Sheath with Mounting Options, G10 Handle

So I bought this (with other co-workers) as a gift for my bosses b-day / bosses day as he is a hunter and mentioned he lived my CRKT / SOG blades that I showed him. The one he seemed to like the most isn't sold anymore so this was the next best thing. Just looking at it you may think its just a basic blade with a plastic handle, no. It's one of the heaviest and sharpest blades I've seen in this price range in a long time. The handle is nice and weighted, very sturdy and feels AMAZING. I am almost sure you could have the knife and your hands wet and your hand won't budge. This blade is build so amazingly the photos can't do it justice. Get one and just hold it, that alone will make you want to keep it. Well balance, very sharp and hold edge, very nice handle and ergonomic for left and right handers, very sturdy, thick high grade steel and strong handle that grips your hand as you grip it. Also comes with a nice sheath that can be adjusted to any angle and position so you can carry it on nearly anything! I will def. be getting myself one as well. We go him this last month and he's used it hunting and he hasn't had to sharpen it once as of yet.

Mine came razor sharp out of the box so not sure what was going on with CRKT's CC for the unfortunate folks that got a dull one. The steel is easy to sharpen and touch up. Edge retionion isn't bad. The coating helps to mitigate rusting concerns. Design is great. I prefer G10 scales and the design on this knife is fantastic. No matter how i grip it I have very solid control of the blade. Comes with a Tec Lok for multiple carry options. I carry it horizontal appendix and it doesn't get in the way at all. Overall size is about perfect for unobtrusive carry. Only complaint is that I would prefer a larger thumb rest on the kydex sheath to aid in the draw but that really is just nit picking. Overall I'm very pleased with this blade. CRKT has another winner. Just wanted to point out that the Esee Izula II is similar so you may want to compare. Micarta handle if you prefer that and some like the hole in the back of the tang. Also similar to a Bradford 3 but those are going to be more expensive due to material and workmanship.

First off, this is a WELL DESIGNED blade! The handle texture is perfect. The blade thickness means that “most” users will NEVER wear this blade out. The sheath is very doable for most people with many cant carry options. My biggest complaint is that it was dull when I received it. Call me old fashioned or just plain anal, but a NEW knife from a company as well established as CRKT should come hair-shaving sharp! This blade was NOT. I brought it up to speed on my whet stones. It is now 10-8 and squared away. I have (5) five other CRKT blades and they were very sharp. The handle is too short for my XL glove-sized hands. If the handle was an inch longer, it would fit perfect. Also I like, when I can, to buy American. CRKT is an American company but this blade was made in Asia. That’s ok, but it should have been cheaper in price to reflect this. I purchased a much BETTER blade made in Asia that I like a lot; the JXE-JXO for almost half the price. It came hair-shaving SHARP!!! Much like the Siwi, but made for grownups. Lol Sad, but true. : ( The Siwi is a well built blade that is well executed and designed. Hats off to it’s designer. It should have been sharp when I received it. Hope this helped someone. : )

CRKT comes through again with another great knife. If you are looking for an all purpose fixed blade that is tough, reliable, and made of very good steel without breaking the bank account, this knife may be perfect for your needs. Using SK-5 steel the heavy blade will take a razors edge and keep it. Full tang. Hand filling G10 handles. 3.3 inch blade. Powder coated. The Kydex sheath is high quality, pancake style, and has multiple grommets on both edges to accommodate a variety of mounting options. Knife snaps in securely with a precise fit. Knife also comes with a detachable Tech Loc style belt mount that can be used for vertical or horizontal carry. Sheath mounts easily on Molle and takes up minimal space. Can also be mounted behind other pouches. Great kit knife. Buy it...you will be happy. Thanks CRKT.

Solid, thick, and capable knife, with a really well designed grip pattern on the scales. Definitely meant for hard use!

The more I use it, the more I like it! What a great designed knife. Not so much as hint of being loose, loosing its edge or flaws in both the units I purchased. Very sturdy, fits the hand, even in different positions, remarkably well..someone really put time into the developement of this unique grip. Sheath is not just strudy but secures the knife very well, yet allows quick deployment with zero drag! I added two 1.5" belt loop clips (made for kydex holsters) screwed tot he sheath, which really made the knife an excellent EDC item! Compact but big enough. I love mine, you will too!

This is an excellent knife. It has a great heft to it for the size. The curve to the blade puts it in a great cutting position without any awkwardness. It has a a very good feel to it when you grip it. Even if you have large hands you should still like the fit. The only knock against it that I have is a personal one. I don't quite like the grooves in the scales. I personally like smooth scales but that is just me. I like the finger choil and the thumb jimping is good. The blade was sharp but not cutting hair sharp. If you are looking for a economical but heavy weight knife for camping or all around use, this knife is for you.

Simple, elegant, practical, and highly ergonomic design. I have not carried a fixed blade prior to this, but the SIWI is the perfect size for every day carry. The blade came quite sharp from the factory and the kydex sheath is well made. I didn’t know if I would like the scalloped grip, but it fits my hand perfectly. It is obvious that a lot of thought went into this design, and the designer certainly has the credentials to know what goes into a useful knife.

I have to say this knife is actually pretty high quality for the money. Fit and finish is excellent, and details like the quality of the initial grind are really good. Ergonomically, it's great. This is definitely on the higher end for CRKT production quality. The accessory clip that comes with it is similar to a Tek Lok and works very well. The sheath is great – well designed with very strong retention and it gives a lot of options for mounting. The only real negative for me is the thickness of the blade stock. At 3/16" thick, this thing is extremely chunky. That means it's well-suited to e.g., batoning through logs as a splitting wedge... less so slicing tomatoes or tape on Amazon packages. It's not marketed for that – this is a hard-use knife and that's fine – but I can't help but think that this would still hold up perfectly well at 1/8" or less and make much more sense as a slicer. I have a hatchet that's thinner behind the cutting edge. The paint also adds some drag that means e.g., corrugated cardboard is a huge pain with the Siwi. Definitely recommended, but be aware what this is designed for and what it's not.

Me gusto, buena calidad, tamaño pequeño pero exacto para traer en un bolso, es un edc completo. Recomendable.

Alta calidad, práctico, muy balanceado

This is a good all-around fixed blade. It's not really fancy steel, it didn't come out of the box crazy sharp, but it's got a great helf to it and the handle fits perfectly in your hand. The tek-loc included is nice as well. Feels like it should last a long time, even if you do have to sharpen it often. Gerber Strongarm and SOG Instinct mini included for size reference.

This is a nice little knife. It’s sturdy, it fits well in your grip, comes sharp enough, and it should accomplish the role of a small utility knife well, in most day-to-day cases. As an EDC option, it may be a little bulky in an urban setting, but should be OK in a rural context. I’m a long-time CRKT customer, and I’ve come to rely on their products for a variety of EDC items. Having said all that, this knife is MONSTROUSLY OVERPRICED. You can get something that does the job equally well for ¼ of the price, or else get a full-size, fixed blade knife that can do a lot more. In short: Great little knife, but not a good cost-benefit option. You’re paying a premium for the brand here.
