Great heavy duty machete
Review by Keepshooting Customer

Heavy duty Ontario knife, with lots of thickness. You will love the handle and the extra leverage this will give you when you need it. I highly recommend this for any job that calls for heavy duty hacking and slashing. A nice heavy fixed blade
Awesome

Durable product.

Durable. Great edge retention. Only thing I don't like is how dull it came out of the box. The serrated edge could be sharper.
Cut's Well! And Stays Razor Sharp

So i had my eyes on this thing for awhile. A little nervous ordering a $50 blade i've never held in my hands. I'm pleased! This blade is a BEAST. As the first 2 reviewers said this was "somewhat dull" which i was okay with because of the edge quality i saw in their pics. I put a nice shaving sharp edge on it. Now, the sharpness is the best part. This blade stays sharp for some time. In a few quick test cuts, i hacked down several twigs, a bit of tree branch, trimmed branches off of a nearby blackberry cane. 8 or 9 decent chops with an actual pull in the saw back and it was as razor sharp as when i sharpened it. And that's the quality of the edge i was looking for in a hatchet/machete style knife. So im very pleased. Will definitely buy again from the company, and would buy another SP8! Just for my bag i have the CRKT Kbar(small version) and an ESEE-4 as my "backups" for any real, major cutting tasks. This SP8 has earned it's place in my bag. A couple very useful tools on it. The knife sharpener was very helpful. The grommet at the base to insert it into the pack. That saw, well the idea of that alone i was drawn to in my purchase. When chopping small branches off a blackberry cane, a couple good tugs and this saw did a decent job, especially for what it is. Cut my right index finger a couple times because i wasn't being smart.
Super nice survival/defense oriented long knife.

Great price. Seems very durable for hard use in the field and looks very tactical with good balance in both hands for self defense.

The one im not using for outdoors has 5-957-11 blade, with it looks sharp at the start when first put blade down, then just within minutes the blade had a real beaten look. Just looked like used item to me. If i were paying good money for it I might have been disappointed but not for budget price item so it still gets 5 star. But Im 3rd one from bottom in pics to post that one has number on bottom. That number tells us Ontario number from whats stamped on top, and number next to picture with blurry dark area in center. This one i'm using has blade number with picture but 5 stars for just to show what number i bought. If you do see in pics with my small cheap blade(bottom) Im about ready to buy another. Like one to use for clearing brush and smaller items(5-957-11) while i got blade to use for the larger things. So thats whats im thinking. My only real complaint about blade i got from ontario on top is you have to use some muscle when you put it back in the sheath. Theres no locking mechanism in place for it, just 5 rows of rivets along backside that its fit through in backside of blade. You could possibly slip the blade out while using. That can happen on my cheap one too but it dosent matter since im only paying 10 bucks for that one.

I like this SP 8 very much, not as sharp as some of my other knives but i know i can put an edge on it, good sturdy knife and holds an edge well, it feels great in my hand, great tool for many chores around the yard
Great product

This thing is great! I have had it since April and used it quite often to clear brush from my property. The only downside is that the handle is not covered in rubber or anything else so you get some splinters but they are easy enough to fix yourself or take it back if needed.
Great tool

I love this thing! It's very sturdy and well made. The only downside is it comes dull but that can be fixed quickly enough.
The SP-8 is one of my favorite knives

I've owned several of these over the years and have never been disappointed. It's heavy enough to do some serious work but not so heavy as to be uncomfortable when hiking or camping. I keep one in each vehicle and one in my pack.
