Kizer Harpoon Fixed Blade Knife, D2 Blade with Black Micarta Handle Hunting Knife, EDC Fixed Blade Knife with Sheath, Hiking Camping Knife 1040A1

The only issue I have with this knife is as much Amazon's fault as it is my own, and it has nothing to do with the quality of the knife. Amazon threw all the miniature versions in with the regular sized ones, and I didn't catch that when I bought the PEI mini. I could exchange it, but I've decided not to.What a fantastic little blade. It'll work well as a neck knife, but I can also see it being used exclusively for carving given its wonderful ergonomics. As with all the knives I've purchased from Kizer, it's a razor from the box. Great packaging and presentation. Solid all around.The translucent PEI looks great against the black blade, which fits perfectly into the sheath. I finally have the tiny knife for my collection that doesn't cost over $400, and it'll be put to great use.

This review is for the Sandalwood Handled, Nitro V, full size Harpoon. This is a fantastic knife, and came wicked sharp right out of the box. The blade length is just right, and is very slicey. The spine is a nice and sharp 90 degrees which is great for striking ferrocerium rods. the sandalwood handle is beautiful and is just big enough for my 2xl glove sized hands (Though I may add a lanyard for a bit extra purchase). The knife when sheathed can be pocket carried if you have pants with larger pockets such as BDUs, but might be a bit big for smaller pockets and tighter pants. Also in regard to pocket carry, the thumb ramp on the sheath can be used to deploy the knife if used against the side of the pocket (may take a little practice.). This is very likely to become my daily EDC fixed blade. Over all, this is a very nice knife and cannot be beat for the price (50$ as of 5-6-2025)

After receiving this today I felt compelled to write a review. I’ve been collecting knives for many years now. Lately I’m on a fixed blade kick. Scout carry more specifically. Let me tell you…. The edge geometry of this knife straight out the box rivals only that of microtech in my experience…. I recently picked up a ZT0004 at 5x the cost of this and the edge isn’t even close to this Kizer. I don’t know how they do it or why it’s so hard for other big names to do it… looked at a Benchmade at the store the other day…. The edge geometry was awful….. like Michael J Fox works there and is in charge of sharpening prior to packaging. For the money, and the options available mixer is the way to go…. Do yourself a favor. If you are looking for a good edc fixed blade, at least check this one out first…. Worth every cent….!!!

It's a nice knife. So my experience is as follows. I bought the 3v micarta variant. I have large hands and I can get a full 4 finger grip. Not the most ergonomic handle, I would've like to seen them round the end of handle rather then that flat part as it does affect comfortably. I received my first variant that the sheath rivet was off and caused the knife to be loose. I returned it because I like the sharpness and quality overall but that was a manufacturing defect. Then Amazon sends a replacement in their famous plastic bubble wrap packaging. Anways the knife was loose and caused the plastic casing to go through the tip during shipping. Surprisingly I inspected it and the edge was not damaged. (3v is a great tough steel.) Overall the rivets are actually properly placed. But like others the quality control could be better. And I think it's a nice knife for the price. It's a small knife and I use it as a neck knife. Small imperfections can be overlooked and this is a great knife. Overall I am grateful and satisfied with it. I could recommend it. More than likely won't buy anymore knives from Kizer however though.

Came really sharp outta the box. Great fit and finish. Only small complaint was couldn't horizontal carry with the supplied belt clip. Ordered a tek-lock to fix that issue, and an ulticlip fir the pocket setup. Good to go.

Nice little knife. Good size and grippy handle. One item to note - There is a pointed sharp edge at the end of the blade closesr to the handle. I had to round it off as I actually cut myself on this pointed edge while using the knife. All else has been excellent so far.

Wanted to love it but it's too small to use for real work. Would make a great skinning knife but too small for utility work. I use my knives at work cutting heavy road fabric mostly but also anything else that needs cut. This knife failed miserably at that task just because the blade was too short and curved to stay in the cut. I thought about getting the full size but I'm not interested in painted d2 or g-10. If they had a full size in 3v with micarta I'd have bought it all ready. This is my second kizer and the quality was just as spot on as the 1st, knife and sheath both perfect. Tec lock is undesirable but easily changed. Depends on what you need it for if it will work for you.

This knife is stylish and handy, with good initial sharpness. The blade shape is useful for both slicing and piercing. I especially like the burlap micarta scales. The sheath fits securely with no rattle. Another excellent fixed blade from Kizer.
