good knife

Reviewed By: Jacob Brechtel (Baytown,  TX)
This knife was is awesome! Its definitely a steal for the price. I was very impressed. The only complaint I have is about the sheath. The tip of the sheath immediately broke off when I took it out of the box. Other than that I have no complaints. Its a great knife!!!

USMC Combat Fighting Knife With Sheath

Reviewed By: Knifer (Plain City,  OH)
This knife really is a GREAT knife! The sheath is my only regret, otherwise, it is a great knife. I cut through a 3-inch tree in 25-30 swipes. It is easy to sharpen and holds its edge. The sheath, well it is not so great. The snaps came off very easily and the part where the blade goes in broke very easily. Overall, a must-buy knife.

Great quality

WOW! I cannot say how impressed I am with this knife. It is exactly identical to a kabar or ontario combat knife. The only problem I have with it is the (hard) plastic but cap. The sheath isn't very good but hey, your buying a knife not the sheath.

What a beauty. My grandpa was in the military and he showed me his knife from a long time ago and this is a very close replica! Very durable and easy to sharpen. The sheath is great to attach to your belt. Whenever I use this thing, it gets the job done. I love it. 5 Stars.

My knife came early today and I can't put it down. The quality of this knife is unbelievable for the price. I have not field tested it but only admiring the blade. Only downside is the 'Handcrafted in china' stamp on it.

USMC CFK w/sheath

Reviewed By: lordbrad1 (lubbock ,  TX)
Got this in the mail yesterday, and I have to say I'm very impressed. A few years back I had the Kbar version, but over the course of several moves around the country it got lost. So I needed a replacement. This is a great knife. It's well made, sturdy, hell even the sheath is well made. The quality of this knife certainly exceeds the price tag. I would recommend this knife to anyone looking for a good general purpose knife for hunting or personal defense.

Only thing I had left from sleeping in the rain. for 11months and 14 days I slept with it in one hand and a grenade in the other.

Better than i thought...you know the saying you get what you pay for, well in this case you get more for what you pay for. the only thing is that the blade wasn't very sharp BUT the sharpener that came with the knife sharpened it up right away! a must get KA-BAR style knife but not for the KA-BAR price.

USMC Combat Fighting Knife With Sheath

Reviewed By: Shinlin (Cincinnati,  OH)
The USMC Combat Fighting Knife is a great knife. Comes out of the box decently sharp and is easy to grip. The handle is made out of stacked leather. This knife is not made for throwing, but for stabbing, or mainly slicing. It is modeled somewhat off of the Ka-Bar WWII model but not fully created like it. The sheath's handle will snap if it is left in the cold too long, and the paint chips off too easily. Other than that it is a great knife. Thank you everybody at BUDK again for such a great quality knife.

USMC Combat Fighting Knife With Sheath

Reviewed By: RBar (Memphis,  TN)
First, the Sheath: It is a deplorable excuse for a sheath, came cracked in the box, broke on my first handling, showed signs of being sewn in the wrong spot, etc. BUDK would be better off wrapping the knife in cardboard, since this throwaway sheath will need to be replaced anyway. <br><br> Now on to the knife: Totally amazing knife for 12.99, even better if you order more at $10 each. Very stout blade, takes an edge, easy to grip handle. Its got the name brand look and feel without the price. I'd give the knife 5 stars and the sheath a zero, so I'm marking 4 stars overall. I really think there's got to be a better cheap sheath they could have included. The tip of the sheath literally snapped off! Again, an awesome knife, but if you plan on using it then the sheath will need to be replaced.

USMC Combat Fighting Knife w/ Sheath

Reviewed By: Byron Orr (Seffner,  FL)
I just received my USMC Fighting Knife today. The knife is of good quality for the money spent. I was however a little disappointed with the appearance. I am wondering if I received a NEW knife or one that was returned!? There are places on the guard and on the part of the blade where the USMC is stamped where the black coating appears to be worn off. Also, the handle has places where the leather is scoffed, appearing to have been used. The quality of the knife in general is good. The blade could have been a bit sharper. The sheath is fine. I think, overall, I got a good deal for the money. I will keep the knife. I would suggest that Budk examine the products more carefully before sending them out.

Combat Knife

Reviewed By: Alwin Red (Hell,  MI)
This is a GREAT knife. Wonderfully sharp, great weight, and is appealing just to hold. The knife itself is well worth $30. The sheath, however, isn't all that great. The handle strap came off of mine within a DAY, and the sheath began to crack on the belt loop. The same thing happened with my friend's, and the handle strap is hard as h*** to get back on, since the hole's smaller than the rivet. It can be done, but it most likely won't stay on. For $10 though, it's a wonderful deal.

It's an amazing knife. The only thing is the snap that holds the knife in the sheath comes off. My friend bought one and the same thing happened to him. And as fore the stone its pretty good I have to admit but, the blade is great it comes rather sharp, but it still needs work. Pretty sturdy, so all together its well worth the cash.
