Marbles Bird and Trout Knife with Neck Lanyard

I like this little knife. It didn’t arrive razor sharp but after sharpening it takes a good razor edge and seems to hold one too. Others have complained the edges were not rounded - I did not find any discomfort. Also rounded edges will not work on a fero rod - this will throw sparks. Nice useful blade shape- I much prefer it to the Cold Steel’s drop point. I did dock it a star as the sheath holds the knife with friction. I would prefer a more substantial fastening.Update: I’m raising from four stars to five. After almost a years use the sheath holds the knife securely.

great little blade - but needs quite a bit of sharpening in in my opinion. I am however ridiculously particular about sharpness. if a knife can't shave hair off your arm it isn't even utility sharp in my opinion.

The blade is sharp. It is very light weight and doesn't seem durable. The sheath has much to be desired, knife falls out with a slight jerk on the chain. Also you need small hands as the ring is small and the tang is short. Good defense knife for little hands.

Decent necker knife. The knife wasn't as sharp as I had hoped but with little time and effort i was able to get it razor sharp. Traded the cheap looking lanyard for a beaded chain. All in all I'd recommend for everyday use.

2 words; WORTH IT. I loved this knife design so much that I now own 3 of them. Sleek design is perfect for EDC. I use this knife pretty much on a daily basis.

Knife itself is quality, and the Marbles knives like this are classic, but it falls out of the sheath very easily. I prefer one with thumb latch for safety.

It is OK for what it is, the stainless steel is hard to sharpen, and does not come particularly sharp. I am not very impressed with the ergonomics, an offset finger ring would be better, but it is light weight and nice to look at.

Not sharp at all... If you do A LOT of sharpening might be ok.. But I have done about a half hour so far and it is almost sharp enough to cut paper... Very frustrating to buy a knife made for skinning that isn't sharp... Size and feel are very nice, maybe after some major work, it will function, but I would have rather paid more and got a sharp knife...
