I have a Bestech Kendo that I rather like, but it has a deep carry clip and D2 steel which are both upgrades in my mind. The Kendo's only real weakness is the blade can cut you from the back side of the handle when closed. That is a big no-no. This looks like a nice knife if you are a fan of the blade steel. Sheepsfoot blades are always nice IMO, though they call this a drop point.

DaveJWoah. That part about the blade protrusion on the Kendo is a serious issue! I hadn't heard about that before (that isn't a model I've really looked the hard at yet)
Drop point on this one seems accurate to me. For Sheepsfoot I would think of a tip coming further down, more in line with the edge. This tip seems to land about center of the blade vertically. I also think of Sheepsfoot as having a longer straight spine and a more severe drop off towards the tip, instead of a gradual drop.

KavikAnd less of a defined point than a Wharncliffe, and generally at least a little bit of belly compared to the straight edge of the Wharncliffe profile

OmniseedYes, agreed. Wharncliffe crossed my mind in the comparison (they seem quite popular here), but I guess I got lazy lol, so thanks for pointing that out
