Delivery and care instructions are great. Fit and finish to the knife and sheath are right on the money. I may "customize" the sheath in the future but day 1 i am very pleased.

    Fairly close to my original, great for the price.

    Not bad at all, especially for the price. I have an authentic M-3 Camillus with the original sheath. The biggest difference is the hanger and keeper strap is nylon (can be toughened with hi-heat Krylon) as opposed to the original canvas without metal tips. The blade is of decent quality and same size not -quite- as thick, the bayonet shape end is not sharpened on top like my original, which has been mine from issue and I do not recall re-grinding. The handle is stacked leather grommets, the finish could use some work as it is very hard and shiny, tougher to grip, I knocked off some of the lacquer coating with scotchbrite and the grip was good. The sheath itself has gotten some grumbles from others but the throat is well-fitted decent metal and the sheath material tough enough. The guard is ...

    Cheap but adequate

    It has a really nasty head ache inducing smell. Maybe it’s the lacquer or the treatment of the nylon on the sheath. Or both. It’s a real shame to have to leave this thing outside for a while to air out. The grind on the blade is a bit wavy and uncentered. The blade is too thick behind the edge. I can grip my palm really hard around the blade and it doesn’t feel sharp at all. The handle needs to be sanded and oiled. I like the sheath for what it is. It feels sturdy enough. At a glance it’s an okay reproduction. The blade is going to require a bit of work. But for the price, it’s a keeper. If you have a bigger budget, theres better options. But you can save some cash if you can accept imperfections. I could really do without the noxious smell though. Overall, it’s about what I expected for ...

  • Knife seems of decent quality.

    For a Chinese copy the knife itself seems to be of decent quality and the blade took a sharp edge. I had to sand down the leather grip and apply neatsfoot oil several times and I will finish off the grip with linseed oil. The sheath is cheaply made but adequate. I will look to replace it if I come across a bargain on an M8 sheath but until then it's fine. Overall, the quality of the knife is okay but the sheath is flimsy. Don't expect more.

  • Excellent value, fair authenticity.

    The knife is a very accurate replica of the M3 knife, the only weakness is the scabbard. It's great that they made the scabbard, rather than a cheap leather sheath, but the exterior is extremely shiny. A few minutes work with low-pressure glass beading cured that to a perfect satin finish, but the webbing used was nylon, while the original was woven cotton. It would probably cost less to use cotton, and collectors would love the accuracy of such a replica.

  • China Trench Knife

    Pretty good quality. Guard is a little loose but once you get some leather treatment on the handle it tightens back up. I sanded the lacquer off mine and then soaked it in boiled linseed oil. The blade coating looks like real Parkerizing. The sheath is too light of a green so it's getting repainted. Fits in a GI issue sheath nice.
