Leatherneck SF 6-3/4" German D2 Steel w/Black Powdercoat Clip Point Fixed Blade Outdoor Camping Hunting Utility Knife | 5" Kray-Ex Handle, Weather-Resistant Secure-Ex Sheath

The build quality on this knife is no joke — the D2 steel feels solid and holds its edge incredibly well. The handle has a secure, grippy texture that makes it comfortable to use for long outdoor tasks. The balance is on point, making it easy to control whether you’re cutting rope, prepping wood, or handling basic camp chores. The sheath locks it in firmly, so it stays put without rattling around. If you want a reliable fixed blade for camping or utility work, this one delivers serious value.

This is a nice knife for the money. Cold Steel version of KaBar Knife. Its an improvement over the original if you ask me , but it doesn't have the history or nostalgia of the original. Sheath is very good as well.

If you love kabar knives like I do then you'll love the Leatherneck-sf. It has a thicker blade, wider tang, more textured rubber handle and the hand gard is turned up so it does dig into my hand. Super sharp, rarely needs a touch up but easy to sharpen

I compared this blade to several other knives in searching for a great outdoor blade. I ended up going with a different knife, but there was a lot to like about this knife. The knife’s ka-bar usmc styling is very familiar and a classic design. I ended up going with a beefier blade in 1095 steel, which fit my desire for heavy bushcraft usage and ease of sharpening in the field. I would have chosen this knife if I was looking for a good all arounder that could serve for survival, self defense, camp kitchen, etc., but I wanted something that I could beat on, resharpen, and beat on again. The knife I chose was an Esee 6, and the no questions asked warranty, 3D grip, and beefier blade made the Esee a no-brainer as the best tool for my purposes.

Just opened the box for the Leatherneck. It was well packaged and in perfect condition even though it was mailed in a soft bag from Amazon. Delivery was only a couple of days after my order was placed. Always pleased with Amazon service Now for the knife. It came very sharp with a light bead of oil on the blade. The blade is perfectly straight and it appears made to last a lifetime even with heavy use. I find it hard to believe the quality of this knife for the price. I was going to buy the Ka Bar but after reading the reviews I decided on the leatherneck. The knife is sturdy and I like that the piece between the blade and handle is thicker than a Ka Bar and it is not off set as I have seen on the Ka Bar knives. The metal is very smooth and shaped to fit the hand comfortably. . I am very pleased with this knife and it does live up to the Cold steel description. The sheath is perfect. It removes easily but does not fall out when turned. I may cut off the cloth clip because it is not needed with this sheath. I recommend the leatherneck without reservation.

He loves it!! Great quality.

I always wanted a Ka-bar knife but because of the rat tail tang I never purchased one. The Cold Steel Leatherneck SF is much stronger and modern knife. The D2 steel is great. The SecuEx sheath fit perfectly. Although the Leatherneck wasn’t designed to be a bush craft knife if you are a city person and only go to the woods every now and then this knife will serve well. It is a fighting knife, camping knife, a self defense knife, jack of all trade kinda knife. Mine came almost hair shaving sharp and that is okay. Highly recommended.

This knife has been through quite a bit, I've used it for batoning, chopping through sappy pine branches, feather sticking, being dropped several times edge down on concrete for testing. The D2 steel is probably the best way to go for a knife like this, and given that Ka-bars official D2 option is double the price of this I couldn't recommend it more. There is a few issues however, firstly the handle is made of rubber, which has amazing grip but will wear out eventually over time, not sure if it's something repairable but it may be. The clip that holds the knife on the frog is held by a single seam, which isn't confidence inspiring to say the least. Some pros- Edge retention is amazing Thicker tang that official Ka-Bar offerings Grip is solid, comfortable, and grippy. Scabbard holds knife very well, frog isn't amazing but not terrible. Some cons- Rubber handle will wear out over time single stitch to secure knife to frog finish isn't super durable, but definitely reasonable (Nitpick): The lettering is very bold and lacks subtly, not something that affects usability at all but just a little thing I don't love. Conclusion- I would buy this knife a million times again, it's priced insanely competitively compared to other options and never disappointed. Being dropped edge first on concrete and not even dulling a noticeable amount was a great plus. For outdoor or even tactical uses, this knife would perform great.

Excelente faca para bushcraft e combate

Das Messer ist sehr sauber verarbeitet und macht einen sehr hochwertigen Eindruck. Es ist sehr scharf geschliffen. Vom Gewicht her ist es perfekt, heißt nicht zu schwer oder zu leicht . Die Messerscheide ist auch sauber verarbeitet und nichts wackelt. Für den Preis bekommt man ein tolles Messer welches man für Outdoor/ Survival , Jagd , Fishing , Combat oder einfach nur als Sammlung Stück verwenden kann . Alles in allem eine klare Kaufempfehlung von mir !

Nice friend to have in the wilderness. Thick, feels sturdy, sharp, not too heavy. Center of gravity is about 3/8 inch from the guard, hand side. I took it to a two weeks camping trip. I used it to split 2" X 2" camping fire lumber into many 1/4" X 1/2" pieces and I also made many wood flakes and tinders for fire starters. This including cutting through those some nasty parts the axe won't cut. I even used a hammer to hit the back (spine) when splitting wood. I made enough kindlings, flakes and small wood to light a total of four camping fires. Despite all of this abuse, despite its thickness (5mm), I could still cut a tomato sharply, cleanly after. It remains, after all of this abuse, sharper than my cheap kitchen knives that were never used for anything demanding.

What a gorgeous and exquisite knife. Absolutely perfect in every way. Nice heavy weight to it. Pommel, handle (except for the rubber grip) and guard are all steel as well so the pommel is essentially also a striker. The blade itself is gorgeous. All grind lines are symmetrical and clean and the edge came quite sharp as well. The sheath is just as great too as is typical with Cold Steel. Nice and tight and very secure and a clasp around the handle. I couldn't give this knife a higher score and I couldn't find any flaws or negatives if I tried. Cold steel is second to none when it comes to the quality of their products. I have several of their knives and they've never been anything short of incredible. Beautiful.

Cold Steel hace productos extraordinarios. Calidad, funcionalidad, materiales de primera, un muy cuidadoso control de los acabados, etc. En esta ocasión este producto es un genuino representante de la marca. Es un cinco estrellas por donde se le mire. Todo en este cuchillo es de cinco estrellas. Quiero expresar que entre los atributos más destacados están: una hoja extremadamente afilada, un diseño muy atractivo y de manera muy especial, un mango con un agarre sobresaliente. Es de los mangos con mejor desempeño antideslizante de todos los cuchillos que poseo. Como dije, cinco estrellas muy bien merecidas. Y además, Amazon lo ofrece al mejor precio en el mercado. Lo recomiendo al mil por ciento!!!
