Came out of the box very sharp! For the price, this is an excellent edc knife. The axis style lock makes it easy to operate with one hand and the included deep carry pocket clip makes this a perfect knife to keep in your pocket everyday.

I worked all day with it in my belt loop I was sitting down standing up carrying 50lbs of salt I didn’t even know it was there. Damascus steel at that price for a fixed blade knife can’t be beat. Buy once cry once. The way this blade is thought out it’s one of the best knife’s I’ve ever had.

This sheath is really nice has excellent retention, get a 2.2 slim ULTI clip for this and you are in business for multiple carry options and summer attire. I use this as my ocean swimming trunks and when wearing running shorts with the aluminum blade.

The aluminum dagger from Skallywag is the perfect edc knife/dagger and it’s what I carry everyday with my Glock 17! I have bought many of these for myself, family and friends!

Amazing knife. Razor sharp out the box, handle has just enough grip for my liking. Has since become my EDC knife! Might have to buy another to keep as a work knife and one as my EDC. It’s a pirates life for me!

I love my new Mantis! Remarkable product! Sharp, durable, visually appealing and overall functional. Though I'm still a little hurt they sold out before I could get all the other colors.

I am a retired GySgt and have known Bram Frank for many years. I have several blades designed by him. As a result I am not surprised this blade meets all of my expectations with no exception!

Not much to say other than sales and customer service were flawless. Craig in sales helped me with a maintenance issue, made me see that I had a lack of maintenance they took care of it for and the knife is on the way back to me

This beautiful like chppper came sharp and ready to go. I wrapped the handle (it didn’t need it, I was just experimenting with it) I use it time to time and decided to bring it out when cooking steak.

Excellent! My new EDC. Really love the weight, size and balance of this knife. I have small hands. This feels perfect. Hats off to whomever designed this blade. Clicks open nice, smooth and solid. Very much like the metal piece at the base that slides it open. Great price; greate blade! Thanks!

Simply a phenomenal EDC. Legal in every country I've been to. I work as a commercial diver and have had situations where this blade has kept me safe. Could not recommend more. I'll also hasten to add I had some serious problems from UPS in Germany. Craig from skallywag was just unbelievable in this matter, you've earned a loyal customer for life mate. Not only from the quality of your products but how for you go for your customers

Maxwell B.

I was incredibly skeptical at the idea of paying a premium for what’s essentially hockey tape cut to a 1/16” width, but once you actually see it in front of you, it’s hard to conceptualize. Being so narrow, it’s incredibly useful for a tight and high-tact grip on a knife. I am very impressed with this product, simply because it’s simple and very cleanly cut/manufactured. Highly recommend if you’re using a Black Triangle G10

I prefer the grommets he larger and there are notches in the grommets that catch into the insides or my pocket. Please use smoother grommets in the future, other than that, works as advertised

My first “custom” axe purchase. I love it. Shaving sharp out of the box, liked it so much I immediately ordered a second one. May never use it on anything but it is so cool.

Geoffrey C.

Just a trainer and an extra sheath to use when practicing deploying the trainer. It works as advertised and with the trainer I can practice by striking a hard surface without worrying about damaging the real knife.

Pablo G.

It's a really well made knife unlike other knives that I've seen that easily break or go dull after a few cuts. The knife is nice and sharp and cuts through things very easily. I really love the knife and I'll recommend it to those who want a high quality knife.

Handling this dagger makes it clear its just for just one thing, which is perfect, I don't want, nor require it, to do one other single other thing. Good work gentlemen

What can I say another dam good blade from skallywag tactical. It's on me 24/7 sometimes I forget that I'm carrying it because it carries so well. 🤗🤗

I ordered the blemished MDV plus one since the normal MDV has been out of stock for a while... and let me tell you that I'm very impressed. I barely noticed the small scuff on the blade, one that you can only see in certain lighting. The discount for the blemished blade is well worth it. I love this innovative blade design and sheath. The options are endless on how you may use this tool. Watching skallywags helpful instructional videos have been a huge help in trying to learn the skills and info...

Although this was purchased as a blemished MDV Folder in titanium, very little blemish was evident save for a small knick on the handle. QA standards are plainly high at Skallywag Tactical if this is a blemished blade. The opening, locking, and belt clip functions work great. Just unpacked it and I'm already impressed and loving it. Great job, Skallywag!

David H.

I recently picked up the Skallywag Mini Jack knife and I've got to say, I'm pretty impressed. The blade is super sharp and durable, and I can tell that it's made from high-quality materials. It's become my go-to for everyday tasks. The handle feels really comfortable, and the quick-opening mechanism is a big plus, especially when I'm in a rush. That being said, I do have one suggestion for improvement. The pocket clip is currently tip-down, and I'd personally prefer it to be tip-up for easier a...

The price of these blem knives is unbelievable. I looked for a long time before I gave up looking for the blemish. This is the easiest opening assisted flipper I own.

This Knife is the best and I would recommend to anyone for an EDC. The holster is amazing and I love the rhino 🦏 horn on the end to slip behind my belt. Great product very sharp.

Fits securely in my side pocket of running shorts or pants. Very lightweight, it doesn't bounce of pull my shorts down when running. I plan to purchase one for each of my daughters, sisters, & niece.

Marine Approved !!! It arrived quickly and razor sharp. The blade shape allows for whittling and slicing equally well. But it can also handle heavy cutting around the yard. I'll have to have a couple for Christmas gifts. OUTSTANDING !!!

Julio R.

Great look and feels very hefty. Not sure the limit of pry-ability it has, just by feel it appears as it can handle just about anything you think of throwing at it. Working at a shipyard this tool will definitely be a daily carry.

I’ve been carrying this one daily for more than a month. It is super easy to just grab and tuck into waistband on under the belt no matter what I am wearing.

Ed B.

The MDV +1 is a fantastic EDC option that's lightweight and fun to use. It has excellent ergonomics and fits my hand like a glove. Watch Skallywag's videos on using the knife and the Rhino sheath; they helped me speed through the learning curve. EXCELLENT customer service as well.

V T.

Arrived sharp, nylon sheath is firm. The light weight and slim profile make it a great boot knife. I will say the description says 8CR stainless and the one I have shows 440 stainless(not sure if this is an error on the site or an oversight) I would advise wrapping the handle in paracord however as gripping it tight can cause some discomfort.

Great, well-balanced ECQB weapon. I recommend holding it like the Shivworks push dagger for a more natural feel. Seems to be good steel that had a great edge and point to it. The handle is fantastic! It's so difficult to find a handle that fits bigger hands without a disproportionate blade size. The Duggan fits like a sharp metal glove. The sheath is poo. Like, mall ninja quality. So I made my own. OD kydex and black rivets. But I wanted it mounted on a plate carrier, so I added adhesive hoo...

I had heard of this product but never looked into them. But now that I have, wow! These are the best thought out modular clips. As a third party accessory. These work so well, I may get more.

My husband absolutely loved his gift that I got him for Christmas. He added bare number 12 copper wire around the handle for weight along with heat shrink. Beautiful knife

This stuff is great. I have been known to try to make gripping segments on things. But this tape makes a great gripping application. It seems to almost be tacky, and I don’t see or feel anything wiping off. My only problem with this tape is, I don’t have enough….lol

Mark A.

I carry one or the other for my EDC. I like the aluminum blade when I’m wearing gym short. Don’t even know it’s there because it’s so light. When I’m wearing a belt I go with the Damascus since it’s a little heavier. I prefer the rhino sheath It will catch a pocket or belt loop when drawing it. Great blades. I have 5 of them and two of the daggers. Also great in its own way. But that would be another review

Frank A.

The Aluminum Dagger is light, quick and very pointy. The perfect ladies implement for self defense. Also good for anyone who wants a fast close quarters combat weapon that is easy to carry and conceal due to being practically weightless. This one was from Skallywag’s Blemished sales, but had no readily visible blemish.

One happy Irishman! Love my Shiney copper sailor. Sharp as a razor,and tite as he'll. Super well built. Got some Skallywag swag out in the wild,and the phone sticker gets recognized. Had other pirates call out my steel for a peek.

I appreciate the blade design and appearance of the Damascus. The edges are precision ground to a perfect point. Balance is well suited to my XL hands and the ring fills my palm snugly. I may include this in my EDC.
