This is exactly the kind of dagger I needed, I have the 'Chaos' version and this one is smaller, making it easier and more handy for everyday tasks. The clip on the sheath is useful, allowing you to easily fasten the knife to a belt loop parallel to your belt. It requires a bit of sharpening and then it's ready to go. In my opinion, the knife is very good depending on its intended use.
Cold Steel Drop Forged Boot Knife 52100 Dagger
A minimalist boot knife forged from a single piece of 52100 steel, which is known for its strength and resistance to chipping. The model features a dagger-profile blade with a flat grind. The blade is coated with a black finish, giving it a matte appearance. The set includes a Secure-Ex sheath, which allows for comfortable, everyday carry.
high-carbon 52100 steel
The knife is made of 52100 high-carbon steel, which is resistant to chipping and relatively resistant to abrasion. Although it is not a stainless steel and requires proper care and surface protection, its cutting properties and high wear resistance make it one of the best materials among classic carbon steels.
symmetrical dagger blade with black coating
The blade, with a dagger profile, is 127 mm long and 4.5 mm thick. It features a smooth cutting edge achieved through a flat grind. To protect against corrosion, the entire knife is coated with a black finish, which also prevents glare.
steel handle, double-sided cross guard
The steel handle is contoured to minimize the risk of the hand slipping toward the cutting edge, and the double-sided cross guard provides additional protection. At the end of the handle, there is a hole through which a cord or lanyard can be threaded.
Secure-Ex sheath
The sheath included with the knife in the Secure-Ex system is made of a lightweight, durable, and weather-resistant material. The sheath holds the knife securely in place thanks to its custom-fit opening. Numerous holes and grommets allow for multi-position attachment to a belt or other pieces of gear.

A fine little dagger, the paint comes off, but underneath it looks even nicer! It's worth measuring before buying – it's rather a subtle little toy.
