Like the knife wish the Sheath would hold knife a little tighter and wish the opening for fingers was a 1/4 inch bigger fingers feel crapped when grip it I like the design wiring for grip tape so can do it like you do on handle all in all I like knife easy to carry and hide

I bought 3. I gave 2 as gifts and kept one for myself. They love their knives and said that they were pleased with the quality. This is my second knife and I love them both.

I am a former USN Diver/SAR. I have been at NOAA now for many years. We go through blades in our field work here like a fat boy through popcorn. You can't get better value for blades then Skallywag's blemished.

Good to go, it was a gift for my wife, she loved it, super light, easy to carry and hide. Might grab a trainer for her, she is pretty good with a knife. Thank you, appreciate a solid veteran owned business!

I bought this for my wife and gave it to her at the end of hunting season. So we haven’t got to use it yet. But she loves the ergonomics, and of course the esthetics are always on point with all Skallywag products.

I stalked this knife online for a while before finally deciding to pull the trigger. I wish I'd done it sooner! This is a solid knife that's small enough for daily, discrete carry. I have several Skallywag knives at this point and they are all top notch quality.

Very nice, yet however it is ambidextrous and forces ne to be right handed.. no worries.. Very well built and handles like a dream.. Buy it, you won’t be sorry..

If you purchase the standard Guardian, this is a must have upgrade. High quality and significantly enhanced retention over the imported basic sheath supplied with the standard unit. Well done.

I love it. It came sooner than I thought too. It feels solid and I feel like I can control it. It replaced my KA-BAR TDIs, I wanted something with a slightly longer blade, tougher steel and with better edge retention. I hope I never have to use it.

Awesome Lil Blade. Fits right on my keychain and ya don’t know it there. Showed it to a couple of buds and they loved it too. Great way to always have a knife 🔪 on ya!

I first saw this knife awhile ago on your website, I liked what I saw but did not pull the trigger and purchase it. sometime later I was ready to purchase the Bounty but alas it was sold out. I signed up for notification when it would once again be for sale. After what seemed like a interminable wait Scallywag once again had the Bounty in stock, needless to say I didn't hesitate and it arrived promptly at my door. what a beautiful beast of a knife. I look forward to using it soon.

The Bounty

William F.

I Love it! The blade looks beutiful, handles really well, its easy to wear and although I've only tested it on paper, its cuts really well. I'm new to using knives for self defense but this does seem like one that would be good to have in a dangerous situation. The only small gripe I would have is that unlike the rhino sheaths that I'd bought previously the one that came with the knife was bigger and much looser which is a little scary when carrying a sharp blade.

I bought the exact same knife a year or ago, and I absolutely loved it: looks, weight, everything about. I lost it approximately 2 months ago and wanted another one. Great Knife!

The Skallywag “Treasure Chest” is the perfect carrier of small gun parts as well as .22 cal ammunition. I also have them for medication and other things. Keep up the good work.

As a vet I love supporting other vets. This is a wonderful defense knife and does what it need to do. The sheath is well made also and I am happy to see that it stays in place when pulling out the knife.

This is part of my edc along with the mdv+1. I really love this tool. Not really much of a knife, but for what it is designed for it is phenomenal. Hope I never need it, but I am sure glad I found Skallywag and was able to get this one on sale due to it being a blem. I have several blades from Skallywag and love them all. Larry Blair

I am not a folder guy, but this is a super heavy duty folder! I am honestly blown away by the quality of this knife and, at the time it was only 25$. I bought a blue and a black one and gave the blue one to a good friend. Thank you Skallywag for making great products and making them affordable. Larry Blair.

Jolly Roger Folder

Parker P.

I use knives almost every day.I am hard on the knives I use and Skallywag makes great, tough knives that hold up against anything. I really like the ability to open and close the knives I've gotten from Skallywag with just one hand. Great products at great value.

Toby K.

It's amazing! I bought a factory second version of the serrated Guardian & personally, I can't find any flaws. I also love the box it was packaged in & the extra Skallywag Tactical Stickers included with the dagger. All in all, I'm very satisfied with my purchase!

No clue what the blemish is and I looked. I use my knives so I could careless about blemishes anyway but wanted to see the issue. Save money and buy blemish unless you're a knife collector.

I have number skallywag tactical knives and other bladed items. They never disappoint and neither do these. Would recommend anything they make if you want quality and durability. From kitchen knives to tactical blades they cover it all. Not to mention they are beautiful.

The whole experience has been great. The product is great quality a training knife is provided for safety and two sheaths to cover your carry needs. A great product and most if not all accessories to train and use.

I bought 2 of the blemished Bad Fish blades because they were a great deal. I can't find the blemishes, just a really excellent fillet knife, so now I have one for the tackle box and one for the kitchen. The nylon sheath is sturdy and will stand up to outdoor use. I like the grippy handle materials.

This is one of the nicest knives I've owned and has quickly become a part of my EDC. The action is scary smooth and it holds an edge very well.

Love the minimalistic profile. One can handle notice it. Very light weight, handlers great. This is really an excellent concealable blade. The biggest draw back is; the blade is extremely not sharp! Dull is an understatement! I think they forgot to sharpen the blade.

Have bought and owned multiple tools from Skallywag Tactical I've past several years. Each has been used and held up amazingly. Recently bought a dive/rescue knife as a gift for new supervisor starting. Was the perfect. Was able to get it engraved to personalize it a bit. New supervisor said he loved it, meant a lot, and will be making it a part of his everyday kit. Once again, Skallywag Tactical has hit it out of the park with an amazing tool. I will definitely continue to be a custo...

I love that it is really two knives in one. You have your traditional knife and then it can transform into a great push dagger if you want it. Plan on attaching it to my vest.

Purchased as a gift for a backpacking friend. He and I have rescently finished the 100 mile wilderness in Maine. This is his “Yes! I fringing did that” gift. I may be getting one for myself.

What a great little product!! I used it to wrap the grip of my old sailors knife and a the handle of a small viking axe. Great stuff. It stays in place and helps give a much better grip. The olive drap color is perfect as I neither wanted or needed hi vis for the projects. Monkey tape is freaking awesome thanks!!!😎

Chris S.

I never embellished myself with a new set of knives before. Always a present , used it hand-me-downs. Waited and waited on this then pulled the trigger with the sale price. Silly me. This is an excellent example of quality. Feels goodi in the hand, like a real tool and is exceptionally sharp and durable. Beautiful finish. A work of art...

Kitchen knife Set - Back in Black

Jacob M.

Dagger is light enough it basically disappears once it’s clipped to your waste band. Tension on sheath is tight but is easy to draw. Do be aware that when skallywag says it’s basically a one time use item they are correct.

What a great invention! The design is solid and you can feel and see the quality in this knife! If it had to be used in a real scenario, depending on your skill level, it could be devastating for self defense in either of the 2 fixed positions.

I hate to say this but I first heard about Skullywag Tactical in D A Roberts books. Now with that being said I have always carried a edc knife in one form or another Your knives are by far the best ones out there thank you an keep up the good work I am waiting for you guys to get the gunners mate in as well as the bounty so I can add them to my collection Yours truly Eric R Nelson

Not sure if this is knife #8 or #9 from Skallywag but it doesn't matter, they are all awesome knives! The blemished blades are no different, awesome knives at a discounted price. Win and win!!

The appearance of this knife is very interesting, it's very large but portable, the blade is very sharp straight out of the box, the grip is really unique, the end circle will provide you with a good overall grip, as far as performance wise, do to the karambit style structure and it's large size you have to be extremely fast and precise with all your cuts because it's not a stealth knife that you can easily hide, your opponent will probably run trying to avoid the fight, this particular knife as...

Great sheath for EDC. Well planned and executed. Customer service (Craig) rocked. Told me exactly what I needed to know up front and saved me a couple bucks in the process. Just a matter of waiting for the product to come in off of backorder and ship. I would definitely re-purchase the MD+1 and this extra sheath if I ever lost 'em. Good job!!

MDV Sheath

Walter S.

I have been waiting on this sheath to be back in stock and to be delivered and it was well worth the wait. I put it to use in my rotation it really aids in concealment, I ran it with my uniform.

Marc D.

Integrating the MDV into our small unit weapons retention program and bought a Damascus version to supplement. Very impressive. Have just begun to give it some wear testing but the live blade performs very well in hand and is tailorable to your grip. Pretty much a must to buy a trainer as well to work with.

MDV +1 Damascus

Randol B.

EXCELLENT addition to the MDV Knife. It really works, and works well for this fat, out of shape old Redneck. IT IS NOT JUST A GIMICK! If you want to carry the knife, get the Rino sheath.
