The knife has two fundamental drawbacks: it is heavy, and the way it is mounted in the sheath — on a relatively shallow snap fastener — does not ensure a secure hold, especially considering the first point. What I can count as a plus is the waterproof container in the handle. However, it is worth asking whether such a solution is needed in a dagger. From what I have seen, this is also NOT a knife made from a single piece of metal: the blade and the handle are separate elements, which is visible after looking into the container in the handle.

Fixed-blade knife designed for field and bushcraft work. The blade is made of German Krupp 4116 stainless steel, while the handle is made of stainless steel and finished in black. The Dagger profile blade is coated with a black oxide finish, and the set includes a plastic sheath with belt attachment.
Krupp 4116 stainless steel
The blade is made of German Krupp 4116 stainless steel, characterised by good corrosion resistance as well as ease of sharpening and maintenance. This type of steel performs well in tools intended for regular field use.
Dagger profile blade, flat grind
The Dagger profile blade is 10,2 cm long and approximately 2,3 mm thick. It features a flat grind and a double-edged profile that allows for cutting and thrusting. The blade surface is coated with a black oxide finish, which provides additional protection against corrosion and reduces light reflections.
Steel handle with anti-slip texture
The handle is made of stainless steel and finished in black. The grip area features an anti-slip texture and double-sided finger grooves that improve stability and control during use. Its thickness is 17,8 mm. At the end of the handle there is a glass breaker.
Plastic sheath
The set includes a sheath made of plastic, which protects the blade during storage and transport. The belt attachment used allows the knife to be conveniently carried on a belt.

4116 Krupp
4116 Krupp is the trade name for high-quality stainless steel from the German DIN 1.4116 group, produced by ThyssenKrupp. It is used in kitchen knives and medical instruments. The carbon content (0.45-0.55%) ensures good hardness and edge durability, while chromium (14-15%) guarantees high resistance to corrosion and oxidation. The steel also contains molybdenum (up to 0.6%), vanadium (up to 0.2%), manganese (up to 1%), silicon (up to 1%), and a small amount of nickel (up to 1%). It achieves a hardness of 55-57 HRC after appropriate heat treatment, which allows for knives with good cutting properties, easy maintenance, and corrosion resistance.
Black Oxide
Black Oxide is a chemical conversion process in which a thin layer of magnetite (Fe3O4) is formed on the surface of steel and other ferrous metals. It gives a black, matte appearance, reduces reflectivity, and does not affect the dimensions of the components, so it can also be used in precision parts. The coating provides limited corrosion protection, so it is usually reinforced with oil or wax. Black Oxide is used in knives, firearms, and tools. The process requirements are specified in MIL-DTL-13924, which covers processing grades, color uniformity, and corrosion resistance tests, and is the basic standard for military and technical applications.

The dagger arrives very well sharpened with a high-quality blade grind, fits great in the hand, and the weight is just right. The construction is very solid and it cuts excellently. I recommend it.
