Nice version of the A-F Combat Knife
Blade is nice and razor sharp on both edges. German quality is quite evident. Weighted handle feels natural in the hand -- easy to grip. Brass hand guard of the original design was replaced with blackened stainless steel on this model, per description. Engraved serial number in handguard appaears to be gold-inlaid on the model I received.
Sheath that I received was slightly different than the one pictured. Instead of a rolled lip to push off against with your thumb while extracting the blade, that particular part runs a bit higher, is not a rolled lip, but rather flared outward on either...

Great Dagger in Desert Tan
This is a classic knife in updated coloring. The laser autographing is an added plus. The sheath is designed to be silent when pulling the knife out. Since I'm simply collecting it, not doing battle, I would have preferred something traditional in leather. Still a great addition to my collection.
Pros:
- Removable weights in handle
- Classic design
- Serial numbered
Cons:
- Wish there was a sheath choice
Best Used for:
- fighting
- Collecting
Would recommend: Yes

Sheath that I received was slightly different than the one pictured. Instead of a rolled lip to push off against with your thumb while extracting the blade, that particular part runs a bit higher, is not a rolled lip, but rather flared outward on either side for greater purchase via left or right thumb to aid in blade extraction. While this does thicken the profile of the sheath somewhat, it seems like a welcome design change to make extraction easier from this very tight sheath.
