The knife features a 9.4-inch blade and weighs just over a pound. Options for a plastic or leather sheath are available. The review emphasizes that gear selection is a trade-off based on the task at hand.

The knife comes with a leather sheath and is available from Nebo Knives Australia with a discount code.
