Thanks for the review! In theory, you are supposed to be able to thread it in reverse (I wonder if there is a small burr that you need to overcome) ...if you wanted to make the sheath into a larger purchase/handle for throwing sparks. And 100% agree with practicing your trade. In an emergency, most of the time, we do not rise to the occasion, but we do fall back to our training. Train well, play hard.
Might have a little paint in it. Just unboxed mine and the ferro rod reversed no problem. With a large fire bundle on a rainy day if you want to get deep into the bundle to strike just reverse the rod and you will be able to throw more sparks into the heart of the tinder. Don't try to put this on a leather belt - it is make for 3/4 webbing - the catch on the inside of the clip will tear your belt/pants.

looks a lot like the folts minimalist
Interesting! Hadn’t heard of that knife before, your definitely right!
Just like it
CRKT makes it, can be found at Walmart and Lowes, pretty good design. Fairly popular.
Very close design this knife has a better grip for me. Great little camp knife.
Nice knife, nice review! Suscribed for more.
Thanks so much!!
I like it!
Thanks!
Is the clip adjustable?in case for side carry?
Yes
Is the belt clip removable for using exclusively as a neck knife?
It’s riveted on so I don’t think you could remove it unless you drilled it out…
yes if you have the right bit
The fero rod IS reversible
Is it?! I’ll have to try again, I couldn’t get mine to thread, that’s awesome if it does!
