The Budget Fieldcraft Knife

Here is an evaluation on an interesting version of a knife that has been popular for years.
If you want a great knock around field knife in the classic style, BUY THIS KNIFE!
You won't be disappointed.

As we see, the knife is a classic example in shape, size and design. The sheath is a thermoplastic material, and the handle is a hard plastic. The color is a desert tan tone.

The sheath and nylon straps are minimal, and I recommend lanyarding the knife, or adding more strapping if you are carrying this knife under harsh conditions.


KNIFE SPECIFICATIONS:
Length: 10- 3/4" OAL, Grip: 4- 13/16" long, Blade: 6- 1/16" long, 3/16" thick steel,  Advertised as 440C Stainless steel, Grip is a hard textured plastic. Sheath is a hard thermoplastic material and has a nylon belt web system of thinner material than traditional versions.                       



Sawing apart the knife to see what's inside:



Inside we see that the full tang is of standard style design.


So now we see that aside from the materials used, the knfe is basically a faithful design and utility of the classic field knife. All things considered, this is a great buy for a knife you aren't worried about trashing, loosing or giving away as a gift.
