Great knife I took some hardware off an old sheath and rigged it to eyelet of my boot, great boot knife !

This was the first knife I purchased from Skallywag Tactical. Now I own three others and come Xmas, my brothers will own a Skallywag blade, as well. And yes, my monkey tape is in transit.

This is my Skallywag collection so far. The alumni. dagger, the Guardian, D2 dagger, & the Tact. pen. I carry the D2 daily, does' t matter what I'm wearing, it stays secure inside the waistband. The Guardian means business! I carry the alumni. dagger on an EDC Bag. The tact. pen is on the bag as well. Great products! You get what you pay for& that is a Fact.

I wrote and re-wrote this review a few times as my opinions on the knife evolved. I exchanged some messages with Michael DonVito as well as Skallywag, and ultimately made some changes, but I am very pleased with the end result. I got one of the last full kits during a blemish sale. While I really appreciated the full kit, I remember when Skallywag was having a difficult time getting these knives in stock to fulfill pre-orders. By breaking the kit up, they can re-stock individual items even i...

The D2 dagger is expertly forged with high quality materials and is extremely sharp.. FDE finish was the right decision.

Austin M.

Great little self defense object here that actually contains a very smooth writing ball point cartridge inside. Just over a quarter inch longer than your standard clicker pens this thing can be used in a snap to put some distance between you and an attacker. They'll let go after realizing they've been poked with what they think is a pen and it will also do a gnarly, painful wrist lock. Having a glass breaker these days is always a plus as the potholes in these roads are getting ridiculous and on...

undefined review of The Bounty image 1 out of 1

Edward W.

Well there it is, 'The Bounty' is the latest and most welcome addition to my wall-o-mayhem :) And this is my second and updated review for this blade, my first was just an 'It's OK' due to some struggles I was having with the new sheath being tight even though The Bounty itself is stellar. It seems you just have to work the sheath a little more than I had... HOWEVER, aside from The Bounty being an awesome blade with the toughness, length, and two-handed capability I desired, what really has so...

Curtiss L.

This is the third different blade I have purchased. The others the Karambit and the Orca. Everything about this company is first class. Customer service, communication, prompt delivery and most of all, the product itself. Just rock solid, hefty, but balanced and out of the box sharp blades. The quality per dollar spent is ridiculously good. Love this company!

After purchasing the aluminum versions for my ladies I decided I needed one for myself. The more I handle this close quarter beast the more I like it. I missing fingers on both hands so the design works perfect for me. If you have been looking at the two versions of these pull the trigger you will not be disappointed!!!!!

Kyle S.

Ordered last weekend, got it in on Thursday or Friday. Made about 3 cuts and loved how it felt in my hands. Having bigger hands I was a bit worried about the fit in my hand like other more main stream knives. After using it and cleaning up after dinner, I promptly went back and ordered a whole set! the fun part now is going to be fining a sharpening steel to match!

Got the MDV Plus One and it is all I thought. Watched the YouTube from Michael Donvito and used it to have framework for my wrap, which I tried to copy his with a few extra wraps. Also couldn’t help show off Skallywag collection. Impressed with everything I have bought!!

Jim C.

When I read the description of the Razor back on the Skallywag website, I didn’t realize how hefty this knife was. It’s Thick. It’s Durable. It’s definitely a Chunky Monkey, as described on the website. I love it! It’s heavy, so be prepared.

James S.

Bought on the blem sale, this thing is immaculate! I couldn't spot any blemishes anywhere, speaks to the qc process for sure! I've been eyeing this for a good long while, very happy that I was able to score one. Worth every penny, on sale or not!

Eric I.

This is a tactical tool that when you get it in your hand.. you can feel the quality. This is one that has fit and finish on the top level. The Box and presentation is outstanding. Note how nice it looks now, because this thing is going on some adventures!!!

No grip mods needed, the rhino sheath makes the knife. Did some sneaky old man shit and mounted to my wallet which holds it for pocket draw nicely.

Joshua M.

I’m a large Samsquantch of a man and rarely find a knife that matches my size, this one fits like it was intentional made for me! Does not disappoint and everyone is impressed by its size and lack of weight (being Ti). This is my first Ti knife and I’m very happy with it.

Joseph Y.

Literally placed the order for the BDU cap and folding blade 0300 central time 2/2/23 and it arrived 1300 2/4/23 with no upgraded shipping. Also I got a notification that at 0615 on 2/2/23 it was already shipped. Amazing service and amazing folder pocket knife. Simple and capable.

I’ve been carrying a privateer since the first run of them. It is the perfect combination of size, weight and price for an EDC. Thank for great products Craig!

What an awesome EDC knife. Great build quality, excellent value, and just a few pulls over a honing tool makes this thing near razor sharp!

Skallywag tactical is one of the best quality knives out there and they have fast shipping. This piece is just another great one to add to the collection.

Blem Riptide is another epic Skallywag blade. Some small scratches in the finish are the only very minor issue. Great addition to the collection. Quality fit, finish and packaging.

Tape makes all the difference it’s an awesome knife but when you tape it it is like adding a handle feels good in the had and grips nice.

Excellent blades, excellent price, excellent service. I've got one of each type now, what are you waiting for? Get one, practice, and wear it! (From Left to Right, Aluminum Dagger in Tiffany Blue, Guardian Dagger in FDE, D2 Dagger in Black.)

Ellie H.

I absolutely love the Mdv knives! The Mdv folder is the newest to my collection and I’ve been carrying it everyday since I got it.

MDV Folder D2

Alexander G.

Great Knife & Trainer, the minimalist design on the handle make it customizable to your own taste, I opted for a paracord 550 weve in diffrent colors witch I think feels great, and I put an slim ulti-clip 3.3 on the Rhino sheet. Tried varius places to put it in my pants around the waste & pockets untill I settled for a good spot. I have not been carrying it outside as of yet, since I just got the clip and the paracord wrap done today, but it feels easy to clip it in the right pocket, the handle...

For the price this can’t be beat. It’s got heft if that’s what you’re looking for. Fun piece from Skallywag and Bram Frank. It’s a purpose driven blade.

The quality of this knife has surpassed my already high expectations of Skallywag tactical. This is my first blade from them and dang is it nice! I look forward to getting my next one.

Richard R.

Got this knife at the mall, I had my eye on it for about a month and finally decided to get it. I love Damascus Steel knives and has the other people said on here it is razor sharp and it feels great in the hand. It is a very beautiful well-made blade

Kitchen Slicer

Timothy S.

I bought this knife as a test purchase, since i keep hearing DA Roberts praise of the Scallywag company. I can now say that I stand 100 percent behind his opinion that you guys make the best reasonable priced knives. I paid a quarter of what my Boker cost and I will never buy from them again. Your knives quality blows them out of the water. Great knives and great craftsmanship looking forward to purchasing another.

Bought two of these one for wife one for myself. Have used them for nearly two years have been on float trips in Oregon and Montana plus numerous hunting trips and other outings. Bounced around in pickup, boat, swimming, trailer rides, dropped, crashed but not burned. Still they look great and produce a great clean of grounds cup of Jo. Have used cheaper and more expensive brands over the years and these excel far above any other I have used pluss they look cool. If you like your Jo and time out...

Hugh R.

This was my first Skally Wag order two years ago. Bought it as a blemish blade super cheap. pic shows the blemish, yeah, I can't see it in pic either. Super small scratch in finish you have to get it in light just right to see it a good testament to their quality control. Finish holds up great I bought the kydex sheath and it has been in and out of it, only God knows, how many times. Tip is needle sharp, stout heavy build to blade, if I have to take a knife to a gun fight this will be it, with a...

Bought the hole set with magnetic board for wife and me, plus kitchen chopper. Hands down the most beautiful sharpest and functional knife set I have ever owned, and board holds knives well. Son and daughter in-law liked so much we bought them a full set for Christmas last year. I have around 15 months on them, and they hold an edge well taken care of should last a lifetime plus. Was on tonight looking at chucks for son and me to blow off steam in shop during trying projects and wife seen the ne...

undefined review of MDV Aluminum Live Blade (Not Trainer) image 1 out of 1

Jason P.

This is the 3rd blade I’ve gotten from Skallywag and just like the others, it didn’t disappoint. I bought this one just to have a lightweight variant of my Damascus MDV. Just know it’s intended purpose before purchasing. It’s essentially a super light, single use blade that’s meant for stabbing. Not slashing. It Does have an edge on it but it’s aluminum so don’t be expecting it to be anywhere near as sharp as the D2 or Damascus models. This is mainly for convenience (weight / price) and penetrat...
