 Very well made knifeFeb 10, 2010
I'm not a firefighter, EMT, paramedic, etc., nor have I had occasion to cut any seatbelts, or break any tempered glass. But I like this knife as a general purpose knife. the serrated blade is sharp, and very, very thick. The knife overall feels very tough; I wouldn't hesitate to pry and such with it. I prefer the blunt tip, because I don't generally have cause to stab things. Having the strap cutter and glass breaker, though, are nice for those of us who are not rescue pros, because ya never know ...
I wish that I had had this knife back when I was diving a lot, particularly for freshwater diving. The seatbelt cutter looks like it would be ideal for cutting line, and wouldn't require unfolding the knife, plus the blunt tip blade would be less likely to puncture a BC or PFD.
Overall, this is an extremely solid, durable, tough knife, with some extras.

HE LOVED ITDec 30, 2009
The knife was exactly what my husband needed for work. I gave him a smaller Gerber knife a few years ago for his fishing box and he ended up using it for work. When he opened up his gift he was ecstatic. The knife was exactly how it was pictured online. The only issue I had was with the packaging. They could have done a better job at shipping with this item because it is heavy the original box was bent out of shape. They should have added either bubble wrap or those popcorn packaging things to avoid all the movement in the box. I had to tape over it and shape it back to make it look presentable.

I WAS going to buy here at Amazon until the price was suddenly jacked overnight...Dec 18, 2009
These KNIVES are great. The seller isn't.
Too bad I left the listing of two of these knives in my shopping cart overnight. The next day I went to buy, each knife was $7.00 more! Thanks, Amazon, for letting the price "reflect the most recent" thing or things that Amazon wants it to reflect...
What with recent problems and annoyances I've been experiencing with this store, it is almost getting to be time to move on.
Amazon may be forgetting that there are other internet store fronts out there.

Amazing!Oct 20, 2009
I am a firefighter in new jersey and bought this to have a blade in my turnout coat. The seatbelt/clothing cutter is a real nice addition as is the tank valve adapter, although it cannot go full turn because it hits the tank. The blades are super sharp and do not snag and tear, they go right through whatever your cutting. The glass punch has been used a few times and works really well with minimal effort. I have even started carrying it while i am driving instead of leaving it in my gear. Its nice to have something in your own vehicle that you can use in case you come across a mva or have to get yourself out. If you are a firefighter, emt, police officer, or other emergency personell you would be crazy not to own a knife like this.

 A Simple and Well Built KnifeAug 21, 2009
This is a quality knife. I have used it as a general purpose knife and it has performed exceptionally well. I have not used it during any rescues but have used it during motor vehicle accident training and it was great. The seat belt cutter worked well enough as did the glass breaker. I was able to open the knife and seat belt cutter with structural gloves on in the rain with no difficulty. I doubt I would use the accessory tools during an emergency but they are nice to have and I have used them. The oxygen wrench is not compatible with our tanks but I did not buy the knife for that reason. Other reviewers have commented that the sheath is too tight but I was able to stretch it out and I have had no difficulties with it.
