Great value, good knife
You can't beat the price for this Brous-inspired neck knife. I suspect the silent soldier knife (which the snarl) is based on, is more comfortable in hand and certainly has better steel, but it's also 2 to 3 times the cost of the snarl. So as long as you keep it in perspective, you'll be more than happy with this blade.
Pros
1. Knife looks as good in person as in the picture
2. Thick slab construction makes the heft in hand feel good
3. Sheath fits securely, looks good, and gives multiple carry options
Cons
1. Knife arrives dull as a stone. I'm not a great sharpener, but 10 mins of work got it to rough paper cutting, and I suspect that with another 10 mins I could get it to cut phone book paper.
2. Difficult to find a comfortable handhold. Luckily there are several options for holding the knife, because I found the 3 finger grip uncomfortable. That was my biggest disappointment, but I can hold it comfortably with 2 fingers.
