Columbia River Knife and Tool 2861 Hunt'N Fisch Fixed Blade Knife

I just received this knife, so I can't speak to edge retention, yet, but the package arrived on time and in great shape. The fit and finish of the knife is beautiful! It is on the small side, which I had expected (and wanted), so it might not be ideal for someone with bigger hands. For me, it's a perfect fit. Pretty sharp out of the box, so that a few strokes on a strop brought it to an edge I am satisfied with. My overall impression is that this is a knife that should have cost more than it did. Bonus that the profits go to charity! The sheath is actually pretty nice, for what it is. I am not totally satisfied with the retention of the sheath, especially for how close to horizontal it is. This probably varies from sheath to sheath due to the natural variation in leather. Also, I wear a 2" wide belt, and it won't fit through the loop in the sheath. 1.25" belt looks to be the max, probably, so keep that in mind when considering purchasing this. I had planned to make my own anyhow. I had wanted a small, stainless EDC fixed blade, in a size that won't get me in trouble and that had a better than average appearance and a reasonable price. I think I got it.

Exactly as described. I own m, many knives, folders and fixed blade, and this is one of my favorites, Sharpens easily and holds an edge. Fits in the hand and gives you many options to grip for fine or coarse work. Sheath is one of the best....horizontal carry is discrete and right there to grab when needed. The basket weave pattern and color are very appealing. I've just recently discovered CRKT knives and have purchased 10 over the past 6 months...personal and gifts. THe make a quality knife and a very reasonable, almost questionable price. Don't let the low prices fool you into thinking these are cheap foreign imported knockoffs....They Definitely are NOT! Look at the "Mossback" design by Krein for another great option. Own both and l them equally. I highly recommend either!!

The knife pretty good for the money. The blade steel is what you’d expect on a $50 knife; it’s easy to sharpen and easy to chip. It’s a great knife for slicing, cleaning or skinning. If you’re looking for a knife to beat on, I’d recommend something with a lot better blade steel (Maybe 154CM or 1095 steel). But the steel on this blade is much more corrosion resistant than 1095, so it works better near or in water. The fit and finish on this knife is amazing, I’ve never had a knife feel more comfortable in the hand. The sheath is absolutely terrible. It looks great but does not have any retention. I tried wearing this thing ECD for 3 days....... It fell out of the sheath at least once a day from just getting in and out of my car. I almost lost it one day because of the lack of retention and spent an hour looking through a field. One of the times it fell out of the sheath, it made a chip in the knife and I had to reshape the edge. Overall the knife is great looks and feels great. Functionality wise, it’s great for anything but hard/rough use and the sheath is terrible.

Endlich traut sich mal wieder jemand, einen ausreichend großen Griff an ein kleines Messer zu designen. Und was für einen. Liegt sehr gut in der großen Hand, vor- wie rück-, auf- wie abwärts. Und sieht wirklich schön aus, das getigerte, braunrot-schwarze G10, die roten Liner, die wundervollen Rosetten-Nieten. Allerlei angenehme Jimpings oben, und unten an der vorderen Griffmulde sorgen neben der ausreichenden Masse für einen sicheren Griff, auch bei Nässe. Ich bin sonst kein Fan von Griffmulden, aber diese sind unaufdringlich und passen. Die Klinge ist kurz, gut siebeneinhalb Zentimeter, und kam bei mir ab Werk nicht sehr scharf an - drei bis vier Striche auf dem Keramikstab haben das geregelt. Kein Highend-Stahl, hab' ich gelesen, aber scharf und gut schärfbar, rostträge und stabil, für mich Ok. Ein hervorragendes Freihandmesser für feine Arbeiten, Schneiden, Schälen, Schnitzen, Stechen, Teilen, Entkernen, Filetieren. Robust genug für Einiges, vielleicht als cooles Austern-Messer? Ich bin kein Jäger, keine Ahnung, aber (Fliegen)Fischer, und dafür ist's fein. Die Lederscheide ist schön, dekorativ, aber tatsächlich nicht sicher. Woran sollte die auch halten, kein Fingerschutz am Messer... Sitzt bei mir aber fest am großen Zwei Zoll-Gürtel, und das Messer fällt auch nicht raus, wenn man's hinten trägt. Seitlich, und vorbeugen, wenn die Scheide ausleiert, naja, platsch... Letztlich genau mein Ding, macht, was es soll, fasst sich wirklich gut an, sieht spitze aus, und hat keinerlei martialische "Killer-"Designelemente. Keine Waffe, ein schönes Werkzeug. Ob's die knapp Einhundert Euro wert ist, weiß ich letztlich nicht, aber ich bin happy mit diesem kleinen, durchaus gebrauchstauglichen Schmuckstück. Und es zahlt auch noch auf einen guten Zweck ein.

It is simply an amazing product... excellent finish and great to hold and use, as the blade for me is just the right size and is an EDC knife with out being too large. I highly recommend the product which In my opinion, is a good value considering the excellent design, good quality, and its contribution to the cancer society is something I support...

Il coltello e' fatto molto bene, comodo da usare ed è molto leggero da portare. La lama si affila facilmente ed é perfetto anche per i cibi. Unico neo il fodero per come hanno pensato il porto. In pratica il fodero è fatto per portare il coltello orizzontalmente, cosa di per se molto buona. Tuttavia il sistema di aggancio e' una sorta di passante per cinture sottili, quindi con cinture più alte di 2-3 cm non va bene. Inoltre risulta comodo per i mancini (coltello sul lato destro) ma non viceversa. Però cinque stelle le merita tutte.

sono riuscito a klikkarlo per 39 euro questo stupendo hunt'n fish del compianto designer L.Fisher.E' veramente un bel fix blade da edc, infatti è quasi sempre infilato nella mia cintura con la sua bellissima fontina stampata in cuoio.Come sempre i CRKT arrivano affilati come rasoi.
