This is a totally awesome functional piece of art. As long as the blade is, there is no wiggle. The stickers that came with it look great on the sheath. Just wish they had it in satin instead of black so it would be seen better. So that when I pull it out (if the idiot was smart) they would run.

I saw this knife on Hard2hurt on YouTube. I've been thinking about it ever since. Worked O/T to get the money and have no regrets. One of the selling points is the Training knife it comes with. I'm a strong believer in training with your tools and the are not enough training knives for the Self-Defense knives out there. I've been doing my daily routine with the training knife and there's not much you can't do with it in your hand. The handle fits right in the space left when you make a fist. You...

This beautifully crafted Sao Feng Tanto folder has quickly become a mainstay in my everyday carry. From cutting boxes, straps to cutting food for the day, it has performed exceptionally well. Great weight in hand and aggressive blade make this a true winner. Thank you.

I ordered a "blemished" MDV folder. Damned if I can find any blemish. I'de say that they f-ed up and sent me a new one. Beautiful and quality piece. I couldn't be more pleased.

I really like the thought process that went into the design of the MDV+1 I am going to wrap the handle in sting ray skin. SO I have a real good grip. All of their Knives are well made and sharp as a scalpel. Keep it that way for your EDC. I like the multiple carry options. OWB carry Scout carry ,in the pocket carry, I am working on putting some thing in my hoodie to hold it concealed in the appendix position . SO i can reach under and draw it. You can use it for precise strikes to eye,s /Tra...

I am a huge fan of this blade. It’s easy to carry, you’ll never know it’s on your belt, or pocket. The size is perfect for carrying concealed, or defensive work in close or on the ground. Absolutely the best.

The Folding MDV knives are my new favorites. They are so perfectly designed and so smooth on opening... I've bought about 15 of the black and Titanium and given them as gifts. Everyone loves them! My new EDC Favorite! Thank you!

I really like this blade and the concepts for use. Fortunately, I retired in '04, so I think the dagger and I both will stay sheathed for the present. However, I have been carrying and working on some drawing-striking drills. The dagger works easily into the method of unarmed defense taught by oldies like Styers...you can GRAB this tool quickly and get to work...I love it. Compared to other, similar tools, this one is substantial enough that I've carried it as my primary with no qualms. I do car...

My husband had been wanting this knife set for a while so he was thrilled when he got them for Christmas. He’s a great cook and after receiving these knives, he’s taken it up a few more notches. He enjoys cooking so much more since he actually has good knives to use. They also look very cool, just as pictured. We will definitely buy knives from here again!

I bought the D2 Dagger - Damascus for the look of the steel. The knife feels good in the hand and the D2 steel looks great. Very happy with my purchase.

The MDV Folder in Titanium is a wicked little Folder! The knife is beautiful and to me, reminds me of a figting version of a chris reeve folder! Just has fast if not a little faster than when deploying one of my OTF's! The customer service I received was really impressive! Craig took care of me when I had an issue with my order. Will be ordering more Skallywag stabbys in the very near future!

I'm not even sure how or where I stumbled across Skallywag Tactical. I am very glad I did!! My first order was fairly modest, mainly to support a veteran owned company. After receiving my order, which was all from the blemished menu. I was very happy with the quality of knives, so much so that I thinks I've made like 4 orders since .. there's something for everyone.. I've already given a few out for gifts and I will be purchasing more for future gifts and for personal, whether it's a pocket k...

This caught my eye due to the unique design. It’s very well made and really well designed as a deep concealment, last ditch weapon. My GF has hijacked mine for her daily jogs since it’s easy for her to carry in workout clothes. My only complaint isn’t a flaw on the part of skallywag, but rather that my hands are a little big to use it comfortably. I wear a 2XL glove and it’s still usable for me, but a little on the small side.

Excellent sheath for right or left hand draw. Adding the 550 as seen in your YouTube video insures you don’t lose it when you need the MDV plus One in a hurry. The Monkey Tape wrap keeps it where you need it in your hand when you use the MDV Plus One. Excellent product!

I absolutely love this blade as an edc. It sits right alongside my 1911 every time I leave the house. As you can see I am a repeat customer. The feel, balance and craftsmanship of a skallywag blade is unmatched. I am a customer for life.

I love my new guardian dagger. Like always, I can’t find the blemish. The upgraded sheath is great as well. I believe I’ll use it as a truck knife or a carry knife in the right situation. I’m getting use to Skallywag exceptional quality control.

I have several knives from Skallywag, but I've wanted a boarding axe for a while now. I follow on Instagram and get the emails so when the blemish sale came up I knew it was my moment. I struck fast and got my axe. I love the size and weight of it. It's chiseled good looks with the solid grip is great. This was a good buy for me.

The MDV knife is well made and very comfortable to hold. The monkey tape adds a great addition to the handle. Once the sheath and knife are placed in position behind your belt it’s very secure. Have not had any issues while hiking or walking around. A great addition to your EDC.

This is one. Of all my belt EDC’s this is the one I go to. Very comfortable, no clip required, the Rhino sheath makes it work. The blade is short and stout, sharp and fits perfectly. Thanks

Skallywag Tactical is my absolute favorite and Go To for blades. A friend of mine sent me a link one night telling me to check them out. Seeing their logo had me hooked already and HAD to buy a knife. I've gotten several now and want more. I've been carrying a Skallywag knife every day now for work and EDC. You can feel the quality and passion they put into their products. God and Blackbeard as my witness; I'd swear by these blades. Get some!

I have enjoyed Skallywag Tactical blades for a little while. When I saw there was a blemish sale, I had to check it out. I have been interested in the Duclaw for a while, and had to have it. Once it got here I was impressed with how stout it is, and so far I cannot find the darn blemish.

This is a nice, short stainless steel knife that is useful for any lite cutting tasks. The handle is made of nylon and is easy to grasp. It comes with a sturdy fabric buttoned sheath with a belt loop. When it arrived it wasn't particularly sharp but a few licks on a steel took care of that problem. The knife seems to hold an edge well. I'm going to confine it to the kitchen as I prefer short knives.

Great blade, sheath is well made and makes for very easy concealment, and sharper out of the box than most people are, solid work would 100% recommend Skallywag to anyone!

I took the bait on the Mako & an Orca, sold as 'hard use' knives. I am terribly hard on knives, a tool I use daily. I keep a polished razor edge on those that maintain one. My clunky old Buck 110 for example,retired when the pocket clipped jobbers came out. (I never liked belt sheaths,and hate a boat anchor in my back pocket.) I've a drawer full of them, expensive ones but fragile due tiny, intricate parts, and many off shore junk knives that aren't worth a pinch of s**t. The Mako is a solid,,v...

This is my 4 th blemished blade from Skallywag and as yet I cannot tell what the blemish is. Beautiful knife, razor sharp, well balanced. No pics at this time but I'll wait till hunting season and see if it gets put to work!

The more I handle it, the more comfortable it becomes. The way that you can use it as dual purpose weapon. With two fingers in with my right hand ( I’m a southpaw). I can still grab my pistol. Same with many of skallywag fixed knives. Especially the mdv plus one. What’s nice about this company is the details in the sheaths. They just get it right. Yes the knives are awesome, but the sheaths are awesome too. And that’s rare. The knife is only as good as you can carry it. If the sheath i...

Every bit just as good as a non-blemish, and the quality, design and purpose meet function for amphibious use, whether fishing, hunting or defending, the Guardian will be dependable piece of gear.
