I order an AK 8 in Magnacut. The knives are excellent. I don’t think you could get a better knife for the money. The customer service is the first class. I had a minor situation with the sheath.. I contacted Ethan, the owner, and he cleared up the situation quickly. I highly recommend these knives, and encourage people to support such an outstanding small business.

Aussie woods are generally not suitable for batoning, iron bark and most other eucalypt species would destroy any knife in no time, but the AK8 would be awesome for delimbing small saplings used for tripods and the like.

I’ve only been using it for a few days now, but I’m convinced that the AK 8 will be my new all-purpose knife. It is light enough to stay on my belt all day long, but nevertheless large enough to perform all tasks that do not require a machete.

The sheath is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Especially of those that come with a knife. Nevertheless, I have a small point of criticism. It would be great if there was a carry attachmet that doesn’t make the top milling unusable. At least without much fuss.

All in all, a great overall package. I don’t know of any better at the moment.
