I have this knife on my kit belt. I have never used it. Aus-8 Stainless, Seki, Japan. Does anyone have any experience with it? Good or bad?

To my knowledge, Junglee knives have had a good reputation. It looks stout and sharp. I would use it to do some common camp chores, like making fire sticks, cutting kindling, cutting food, cleaning fish to familiarize myself with its handling characteristics especially with that curved blade style.

It's a decent knife.I would consider some paracord or ducttape to improve the sheath retention. those snap loops are notorious for coming undone.

It was a bandwidth issue... too many people accessed the page and exceeded the bandwidth for the site. I'm still getting the error.

This is the error:

Once upon a time, Geocities didn't suck, at least free hosts went. Then it started go down hill. And it got worse after Yahoo bought it.

As for the knife, I've handled but not used this model or one very similiar from the same manufacturer. Felt like it would be a great slicer, decent utility knife, but despite the shape, I wouldn't bother trying to chop much with it. Not enough mass, despite having seen it advertised as a camp knife/small chopper a couple of places online.

I haven't used 1 or even handled 1, but the photo doesn't impress me. Personal opinion.
