  - I just received and it's exactly what I was hoping it would be. Good quality, including the sheath and at a good value price point. I hope you will make/offer a training version. (And bring back the training versions of the original TDI knives.)
  - Owen Obrien
  - Just like all the other ka-bar knives I've bought fantastic a great little knife that fits snug in my hand for being tiny and can also be worn as a good neck knife if you want definitely recommend it
  - Douglas Meloche
  - Has become my preferred knife for everyday concealed carry defense. Firmly clicks into holster for a solid fit, and easily unsheathed in a single motion. Practice finding your proper grip with this one.
