Tools and Hardware Reviews of Smith & Wesson SWHRT3 HRT Military Boot KnifeCustomer Review: Quality equipment for a good price Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered this knife on a whim, seeing as I am tired of "tactical" folding knives in general. My state allows (LOL my safety is allowed by my state, go figure) the carrying of double edged knives and I am a concealed weapons permit holder.
But anyways, the knife its self is very high quality, the steel is exceptionally high grade (not sure what alloy, but it is strong!). Full tang construction and the rubberized grip is very comfortable to hold and will not slip upon a thrusting strike. The spear point double edged blade is not very long, but then again, it doesnt have to be. This knife is designed as a fighting knife, and as such requires the user to be at least somewhat competent of what he/she is doing with this tool. That being said, the blade is quite thick and has a strong penetrating point, I dont worry about it breaking no matter what I decide to test it on (short of concrete and steel).
It also arrived with a steel bead lanyard, and a kydex holster/sheath. The sheath its self is quite nice, no burred edges and the blade lockup is strong. I actually find it works better now that I have taken the blade out a few times and gotten it broken in. My only real gripe with this sheath, is that it has a removable belt clip that slides into a nook on the backside of the sheath and is not actively retained by anything other than material surface friction. This was an issue when I tried to belt carry the knife, I actually had the knife and sheath fall into my back pocket while I was walking leaving the belt clip attached to my person. The dual purpose, neck knife/belt carry, is a good idea but the execution is lacking in this area. If a simple press down locking mechanism were introduced into the carry clip it would be nearly perfect for belt carry, but until that happens or unless you decide you want to super glue it down I would not recommend belt carry.
Overall I would rank this knife/sheath combo an 8/10...good value for a high quality defense weapon.
Almost forgot to mention the customer service of Green Valley Place is exceptional...buy from them.
