Customer photo review of Skallywag Shipping Protection SI1
Michael G.
MDX is a solid addition to my everyday carry (EDC). The design is compact, reliable, and built for real-world application. Whether for self-defense or utility, it integrates seamlessly into my daily routine. At my martial arts.. School of Combat Arts, where we train in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, DeRobio Escrima, and combatives, having the right tools and the right mindset go hand in hand. MDX fits well within that philosophy—practical, effective, and always ready. Since I got the MDX plus o...

Made a grip with friction tape. I have carried this knife behind my belt buckle since it arrived. I am waiting for the practice blade to be back in stock so I can really start to train with this amazing knife. This is exactly what I was looking for

I wanted a fixed blade to carry on my body armor and I have always loved Karambits, so it was a no brainer to get one from the best knife company there is. I carry it on my weak side and it's attached right to my body armor. It's lightweight, and the blade itself is very comfortable in my hand. I'm using this as a duty weapon, so you can say that I'm trusting Skallywag Tactical with my life, and I do!

I have many Skallywag knives and buy even more to give as gifts I was always hesitant to buy this Karambit due to the warning about gorilla hands I have relatively big hands and decided that at this price why not take a chance. Yes it is a touch small but I have found that I had no problem adjusting to it. It is so light weight that I don’t feel it when I carry it. This has become one of my EDC self defense blades that I find myself using more often than not I would love to get one in FDE but ...

I love this knife I took it apart to adjust/lube the pivot, added black hardware, and acid washed the blade. I think it looks awesome in both configurations. One of the most versatile edc self defense knife’s on the planet.

This is the perfect EDC! I beltline wear this and midline wear this when I have my vest on. Perfect in every aspect! Being a retired veteran from a seagoing service the name SKALLYWAG makes this a perfect fit for me. You can’t beat this product and the sale price is/was a STEAL!!! Rock on SKALLYWAG TEAM, ROCK ON!

Absolutely love this knife, it carries easily behind my belt. My only regret is not buying the trainer as well, the bladed knife is tearing the hello out of my Bob, lol.

Customer photo review of D2 DAGGER+3
Derek W.
At one point I thought about having this knife professionally sharpened. But I was apprehensive. Then I email Skallywag. They agreed it would be extremely hard to do. Even as a professional. But the big “deal” with this knife is that is specifically made for an icepick grip. That it’s for puncturing. Not slashing. That the reason for it only being a 40 degree angle, is that it is for putting all that power into the absolute tip. I was kind of aware that this would be the response to asking about...

Derek W.
This is wonderful. Exactly as its real life live edge partner. Can be used to train in such a way that you will have exact muscle memory for using the live edge. This could even be used instead of the live edge, if you were wanting it for only locks, and pressure points. But even this, the trainer, it quality built.

Incredible! This knife will remind you of the child in you in an imaginary realm fighting the evil with a mystical dagger. This knife is not only tactically awesome, it’s gorgeous. Now of course, I’m partial to the FDE colors. But just wow.

John T.
Very well designed and built ” in case of emergency break glass”blade. I would trust it to defend myself and family when the last round is fired. My only regret is I forgot to get the decal sticker. Kinda was hoping one would be included with the big razor blade called the Redonda

Love this knife! It is solidly built, and you can feel it when you hold it. At this price point the value is amazing. Have told everyone I know about this knife. Will be ordering more for gifts.

Customer photo review of UltiClip Slim 3.3
Derek W.
I have seen these. UltiClip’s. I just bought a couple for the first time. I didn’t realize just how they worked. Or why they are so well received by consumers. These are absolutely awesome. I’ll be buying more. But they’re no just a “clip”. They have a kind of lever that keeps the actual clip “locked” closed.

It is a single purpose tool and it excellent at that purpose. You can see that a lot of thought went in to the tool and the sheath. The little prong on the back of the clip makes this the best in this business.

Excellent and very sharp knife! I personally think this a better version compared to the higher quality MDV but, that being said, I am still buying the expensive version for a dress back up. Thanks Skallywag!

Larry V.
I have over 150 knives, including many fixed blades. This knife hit a real sweet spot for me. The size just fits my hand perfectly, and I like the hefty handle With scales that just feel great to hold. 440C is excellent steel. As a martial arts instructor for 45 years who is really into knives this hits just the right markers for an every day carry blade as well as a self-defense tool if you used properly. At this price point, you simply cannot go wrong with this Efficient blade. I put an ulticl...

Scallywag Tactical is my first go to for a mew knife. I have several of their blades and even a couple "blemished" ones that are nothing but fantastic. I can't recommend them enough. Period.

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.

Customer photo review of MDV Retention Sheath
Jesus G.
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.

Kristopher K S.
I opted for the titanium scales and for the size of this beast it’s very light, came with a smooth ball bearing action, secure lock, and it’s sharp enough to dry shave your arm…

I did not think it could get any better than my black Boarding Ax, until my FDE one arrived. The same great construction and design, with an even cooler color.

Excellent blade, well balanced and has a great feel in the hand. Comes with a Teklok clip, which I changed out for a different clip. Arrives very sharp out of the box. Would highly recommend.

Graham G.
Awesome knife, its super lightweight, comes razor sharp out of the box, and the grip is perfect. Amazing blade for all duties rather its gutting and skinning animals, cutting bait and filleting fish, or just for basic utilities! It is probably the best knife I own right now. 5 stars great work guys.

UPS just delivered my BBQ Set and I gotta say it was packaged very well! The set itself is legit and very high quality I absolutely love this BBQ Set and can’t wait to show it off and use it!!! If you’re thinking about ordering one and hesitating because of the price don’t worry it’s worth every penny and more! The carrying case alone is worth the asking price of everything not to mention its real leather! The rosewood handles on the utensils are a nice touch! So If you’re wanting this Badazz BB...

The sharpness of this knife is excellent. I didn't try it on a person so I tried it on a steak. I was amazed at how much better my regular steak tasted.

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.

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.

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...

Roberto C.
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!

Customer photo review of Mini Jack
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.

Carl J.
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.
