FEATURES:
PROS:
The Spyderco Bushcraft G-10 is a great knife, comfortable in the hand and can take a fair bit of a beating in the field. Holds an incredibly razor sharp edge which can be sharpened and fine tuned on a whetstone because of the Scandi-grind setup.
Come complete with a leather sheath that will offer protection for the blade form the elements. It will also offer you protection in case you take a tumble while carrying it out in the wild. Durable and quality design this is a must for any serious Bush crafter or Survivalist.
CONS:
This knife while top quality does have a few drawbacks. The blade, because of its makeup can rush if you don’t look after it properly. The sheath doesn’t handle the wet too well and can tend to smell a bit after a while – especially if it gets wet.
It doesn’t have a hand guard so might be better suited to experienced hands or at the very least get some handling advice before you go chopping things down with it.
