    I picked up one of these, I believe it is made by cold steel

    It is a full tang knife

    and it is by far the single best bang per your buck you could possibly spend or find. Outstanding for the money! Same quality as many $100+ knives

    Excellent, this is a MUST ADD to your BOB

    Yep, and yep.

    After camping, and doing some more things around the house, I'd say this is an outstanding blade for only $10. I am well pleased, and will probably order another...if I ever need another.

    Got it yesterday afternoon. It came out of the box SHARP...the weight is great...the blade is great. For $10 it is an awesome buy.

    It most definitely has been used for that and because of it's design does it quite well. But most likely this design was first used by farmers in India or Indonesia, I always get the two confused.

    I'm sure that it would lop off just about anything you took a fancy to swinging at.:D Truth be told, it's really to "blade heavy" to make a good fighting knife. I love it as a camp or bush knife though.

    Dang! Double post!! How do I delete this thing?

    I ordered one last night, and intend on taking it camping a couple of times this month. I will try to give a "heads up" on how it performs.

    I don't mean any disrespect, the blade is a bolo design. It is designed for hacking and chopping, like through a jungle or making a lean to. Not saying that it could not be used as a weapon, but that is not it original purpose.
