Poshland TR-301, Custom Handmade Damascus Steel Tracker Knife - Stunning Handle … (TR-301)

This is a really good knife for the price. It came in sharp, with a whetstone and I like the case. If I’m nitpicking I would say that I think the case coulda been a bit more sturdy, but it wasn’t bad.

The knife is very durable and looks amazing. Cant beat it for the price. It came with the blade and sheath oiled. Very nice!!! This is the 2nd knife I have purchased from this company. They make great products. Only complaint is that this one did not come with a certificate of authenticity, like the first one did. Other than that it great. Perfect for a gift. My husband loved it!

I was worried about the reviews of people saying they didn't receive as shown or there were flaws or damage and broken sheaths and such and I am very happy with this knife. This is my first Damascus steel blade and it's very cool, has great weight to it and feels balanced plus comfortable to grip. I'm 6' 1" and don't have small hands and the handle fits my grip perfectly which I have to add the grooves and cut of the handle are different than the picture but for my hand it fits great so it worked out. Also the handle being Micarta and not wood it won't absorb water or oils so that's cool too. The blade is very impressive and came with a thin honed but not very sharp edge. I have to say that I used an electric knife sharpener with a different angle to it on the first main blade segment and at first I thought I hadn't run it enough but realized I need a smaller grit so my blade has a larger and now softer edge, that is not how it looked when I got it, other than the smaller segment blade below main that remained thin because I didnt sharpen it yet. All in all I'm very impressed with this knife, my only complaints is that the sheath feels kinda frail and the horizontal belt connection is alright but could use a third strap to hold the handle upright better, also my blade did not come with the small divits on the top edge where my thumb is positioned in the pic I'm holding it, but that's a minor thing doesn't affect the blade at all. Definitely worth the price and I can't wait to get the correct belts to sharpen this beast.EDIT:I purchased the more varied belts and was able to put a nicely honed edge on the blade now, very impressed.

Really beautiful knife. And weighted well. The balance is a bit off but still would be a great thrower because of the weight of the blade. Read a lot of articles and reviews on this knife and found that this knife is rated as tougher and more durable than the tops tom brown tracker knife and as it's Damascus steel it's stronger and will bend so it won't break easily. The edge is excellent and is hair-shaving sharp out of the box. No need to sharpen it. The blade is beautiful and it's real Damascus. People think bcz the design gets rubbed off with a grit stone it's not real. But the process of Damascus is using acids and compounds on the blade to bring out the designs off the layering of the steel. It's real Damascus don't believe the naysayers who only think they know knives or steel. Beautiful and good quality sheath. Remember to oil this knife with chibi oil and clean it. Wash with warm soapy water and a sponge. Dry thoroughly and oil it after every use and often when in storage. It will rust, this isn't stainless steel. It's carbon Damascus steel. These places need care or you'll ruin the steel. If any rust spots appear use a grit stone and polish off the rust. Still a beautiful knife and very cool.I gave it 4 stars because I didn't like how the hook part by the tanto edge of the blade and the beginning of the finer working base of the blade isn't sharp. You could still shave fat wood with the sharp angles of the non-sharpened part by scrapping it down the wood you've batoned through or the fat wood you can bring along or shave. Could definitely use the belly of the blade to make feather sticks to start a fire. A bit let down the hook part of the blade wasn't sharpened but other than that I really like this knife. Definitely recommend.

Not quite as heavy as I'd hoped.The sheath fits nice and snug, and it holds a great edge. Lite, yet durable. Great for a defensive concealed carry.

In January I bought a TR-1168 Custom Handmade Damascus Steel 10 Inches Tracker Knife from the same store for $66, almost twice what they are selling them for today. It's my favorite knife. The knife itself is high quality, feels good in the hand, and the sheath is a beautiful piece of art on its own. I love that knife. It's the perfect bushcraft knife, and it will last me a lifetime.This one, which was half that price, looked amazing on Amazon. I had to have it, knowing how well the TR-1168 was made. I received it today, and was very let down. The knife itself it very lightweight, and although I like the blade, the handle is not large enough to be comfortable. Additionally, the area at the back of the knife that is not covered by wood (the area with the hole), is too sharp, and presses uncomfortably into my palm when using the knife. The sheath is very cheaply made, using inferior quality, thin, hard leather. It doesn't even smell like the sheath that came with the TR-1168, which smells amazing, like leather should. I will probably try to find a higher quality sheath for this knife, and will round off the sharp metal on the handle end. Overall, I suppose it's not a bad knife for $34, I am disappointed because this shop's previous knife was SO AMAZING, and this one is really a disappointment.
