ODENWOLF W-SCANDI Full Tang Survival Knife with Sheath - Stylish Tactical Fixed Blade - Made of D2 Steel - Bushcraft and Camping Knife Survival - Perfect EDC Hunting Knife with TPE Handle

Great Budget Survival Knife for EDC or Prep KitsThe ODENWOLF W-SCANDI is a solid budget-friendly survival knife. The D2 steel blade is sharp and durable, and the full tang design makes it dependable for camping, bushcraft, or emergency use. The sheath is functional, and the TPE handle provides a good grip. A great addition to my preparedness system and an excellent value for the price.

And this one knifes well! With a blade size of just under 5 inches, it's a very strong piece of metal. It arrived razor-sharp, without a single spot of rust. I was able to use it for a wilderness course all weekend without having to sharpen it at all! As described, it is full tang, has a PTE grip that sits firmly in hand without slippage, and comes with a poly sheath for a little extra safety and security. At such a good price, I couldn't really ask for more.

ODENWOLF W-SCANDI Full Tang Survival Knife with Sheath is a steal of a knife and a fantastic deal at 40 bucks. Comes sharp and is well made for in the thirty to forty dollar range, truly a very spectacular knife. The scandi-grind is done perfectly and if you use a hand sharpener with a leather cover, just a bit of stropping and this work of art is shaving sharp. On top of that you get D2 steel at a bargain basement price. D2 is a decent budget steel that will hold an edge pretty well for a long time. For what you get at this price it will hold its own with a lot of the name brand bushcraft knives that sell for 3 to 4 times the cost of one of these little gems. The steel is thick and will hold up for years with just normal maintenance that you will have to perform for any knife you value and want to last. Having a strong background in camping and survival I am blown away every time I find an extreme deal for a tool that can help keep you alive in the back country.

This seems to be a great knife! Personal defense, on gear. Be advised - it comes VERY sharp already! Great value for the price!

I love the knife but was disappointed as I had no clue that D2 steel stains when you use it with food. Still completely functional though. It held its edge and was still able to slice through paper after batoning with it. The knife throws real great sparks from my ferro rod. And the ridges on the spine work well to throw sparks on a stubborn used ferro rod. I don’t want a knife unless it has the ridges on the spine now. Feels like a bushcraft knife is not complete without it. The knife and sheath together are very lightweight and even fits in your pocket as an everyday carry if you so choose. I bought the green flat grind and the black scandi grind. And the scandi grind was pretty dull compared with the flat grind. But I have a sharpening system and it was real easy just to put a sharp edge to the scandi grind. I’ve bought a lot of different knives on amazon, and Odenwolf is one of my favorites, mainly because it’s the best knife to use to always get a spark off a ferro rod. Even 1095 with a sharp 90 degree spine struggles with a used ferro rod. But the ridges on this knife ensure that you can always get a spark.

Edit: it's on oden wolf website for $25It looks like a quality knife out of the box. Nice fit and finish. No movement inside the kidex sheathing, fits great in the hand, feels very grippy, and a practical sized blade. Great value over all.I had a couple problems. 1 the knife was very very dull out of the box, comparable to a butter knife. I had alot of sharpening to do and only have an 800 grit with a strop bc mostly just need to maintain blades. It took a long time although not nearly as long as it should have to sharpen. I have other blades in D2 that are much more difficult to sharpen, which makes me wonder if it's actually d2 or maybe just a soft heat treatment. The reason I want d2 steel is for the edge retention it offers. I know they have other products in 440c and would be easy to mix up considering the lack of quality assurance (lack of qa bc the edge sharpness out of the box). 440c isnt a bad steel, it just dosnt have the properties i need for the application i planed on for this knife. It did however take a really nice hair popping edge. I need more time and testing to see edge retention properties

This SOB is the sharpest knife I’ve ever owned straight out the box!!! Shaving wood with it while bored hunting I can still skin a fly with this awesome knife!! Honestly never buying anything else!

Great knife for price. Good quality for all around camp or kitchen knife.
