MTech USA Xtreme – Fixed Blade Knife – Brushed Finish Stainless Steel Blade with Black Micarta Handle and Kydex Sheath, Full Tang Construction, EDC, Tactical – MX-8035, 7-Inch Overall

Picked this little baby up while it was on sale for 8 bucks. I was in the market for a solid, relatively compact do-all chore blade, and this knife certainly delivers. I am doing this review after a couple month's hard use. So far, I have used this knife as a light pry bar (the thick steel really helps), scraper, light digging, skinning, cutting up boxes, and some moderate Baton work while camping. It just keeps taking the abuse, and fixes right up with a bit of oiling, and good sharpening. The general shape of the knife allows for a variety of cutting, and also means its pretty easy to sharpen. Didn't start off the prettiest, and it has only gotten uglier with use, but I bought this as a beatstick, so i'm more than happy with how it's turned out. Did have some issues with the sheath, like many others, but I just kept drawing it in and out, until it quit sticking. Despite that, it still has solid retention, and it hasn't fallen out the times I stored it on my belt upside down (and even if it did, the knives are still pretty cheap to replace). Something to keep in mind, is once you have the too tight sheath sorted, to practice actually drawing the knife out. It comes out at an angle, and replacing the knife one-handed, without looking can be a bit tricky. The handle works quite well, even for big meaty mitts like mine, and i have full control while using it. If you're looking for a good, cheap, solid do-all beat stick, I highly recommend this knife. It suits my needs in a handy, compact package. I am most definitely ordering more soon.

Sturdy little knife, however a bit large for a neck knife. I didn't measure it but it is a thick knife and the blade tapers to a point. It looks to be nice for skinning. It came sharp but not shaving sharp. It comes with a decent Kydex sheath. The knife fits very securely in the sheath and it has a string so you can wear it around your neck. The knife fits so securely in the sleeve that you would really have to tug quite hard to release the knife from the it. The belt clip fits very securely. The handles are much better quality than I had expected and not loose as other reviewers have noted. Overall i am very pleased with this knife. The blade was clean and rust free. Although I'm not into the batoning I see no reason why this knife would not hold up to batoning use. I really like the full tang and think this knife would be a good candidate for customization. Prompt and efficient shopping experience. Absolutely no issues.

Cool knife, just not a fan of the sharp unfinished edges on the handle. And the sheath design is a little goofy. Every time you pull the knife out, little shavings of plastic come with it. The knife was plenty sharp straight out of the box though, and it is a cool design. Not gonna try cutting conduit or anything with this, I know it's no Benchmade. For my purposes it cuts fine and the size/fit is perfect for the hand and unobtrusive on the hip. It's functional and easy to use. Nice value knife.

My initial thoughts regarding the MX8035, since I just received it, is WOW! What a great little knife (and sheath--knife fits snug). Solid but not too heavy and not too small. Used the lanyard as a necklace under my loose button shirt and it conceals just right without being too heavy. I found the reviews and videos to be very helpful and trustworthy before I purchased it and I am not disappointed. I own other more expensive knives but all a little big to carry around everyday. This little gem, however, is not only a good looking knife at a good price but is also the perfect size I was looking for. AS far as durability that is to be seen. I use a stainless steel cleaner bought for my appliances that is oil based and it does a nice job cleaning as well as preserving ( an inexpensive and good alternative).

The knife is solid, the sheath sucks. It's nice to have a clip, but it's too tight on the knife and it's difficult to get it out. You have to really pull and be careful not to cut yourself with the hand that has to hold the sheath. I tried loosening the screws and it didn't make a difference. Good knife though. Quality handle and blade.

Very well made knife.

Fiquei super satisfeito com esta faca pelo material de ótima qualidade, tanto a lâmina, cabo em micarta e a bainha que encaixa bem e fácil de sacar a faca.

Habe das Messer gerade bekommen. Es ist Rasiermesser scharf geschliffen. Die Optik und Haptik ist unglaublich. Ich habe Outdoormesser die das 15 Fach kosten. Diese sind nicht so wertig wie dieses von MTech USA. Bravo

Buon coltello fisso... piccolo ma robusto

Sehr gutes Messer, Stabil und dennoch leicht. Kann ich nur empfehlen

Ótima faca, muito afiada.
